Penguinz!

Posted by Jimp - January 15th, 2008


Wow my first news post :D I thought I may as well make one of these about what im working on at the moment.

I am making a sidescrolling shooter with vengeance, in which you play as a penguin and shoot the shit out of things, basically!

Progress is coming along pretty well, we have about 5 levels, 11 enemies (including 2 bosses) done, and its looking sweet!

The game is arena based, much like staggy, in which you play for 1 minute rounds, killing as much as you can and earning cash in the process, with which you can buy new weapons and upgrades! The engine is so fun to play with and I am really pumped for the game!

Vengeance posted a gameplay video on you tube if you wanna see the game in action :P

Also, heres some taster art to sink your teeth into :P

Comments/Ideas/thoughts welcomed!

Penguinz!

Haha, looks great!

Looks hilarious, I mean that in a good way. Look forward to the release date.

Cheers man, ill PM you when we release it if you like :)

Looks smooth. Is it my imagination or does that video show an awesome recoil game mechanic? I don't know the controls but from the looks of things it seemed the penguin kept getting knocked back or jumping higher (when in the air) when it fired the gun. If that's the case: Classy. If that's not....still, game looks very shiny.
-jared

Yup! There is a scripted recoil, which is pretty fun to play around with. For instance, if you jump in the air and shoot down with the M16, you will float downwards rather than fall. If you do the same with a shotgun and let off 3 or 4 shots downwards you go flying into the air!

Truth was here

penguins R beast and I saw the utube demo, looks awesome. Tell me when it comes out :)

Saw your new movie "Join the Army". I'm so pleased how well it turned out. Well done.

It's cool to read that your doing interactive media in Bournemouth. Must be cool. it's weird becasue i might do the same course next year. Good to see someone on the interwebs who is producing excellent work from the course.

Keep it up bud. please pm. thanks. :)

that's really got amazing codeing. How did you learn actionscript? Game looks fun, keep up the good work

I didnt do the coding, only the art. This guy is coding it: http://vengeance.newgrounds.com/

It looks really cool!
can you PM me when finished?

Yeah man no problem!

Looks good, only thing that you could add is the abilty to ride the snowmobiles. Apart from that looks great :)

Hmm cool idea...

Looks good,the penguins a bit oddly shaped though :O.

Yeah thats just the style I drew them in :P I like it!

is that your wife

wtf

Dude this looks awesome! I'm gunna go check it out. BTW, didn't mean all of your stuff is gay, infact pay me no mind i'm new and actually learning how to make flashes - games & toons, I kno nothing now.. >.<

That was a pretti funni response tho "In other news.. STFU" Loved it.

Looks awesome is there a story for it or just a crazy blood crazed penguin?

And i can't wait to play it when it comes out

So do u think you might make another one of those Join the Army ones where you see what happens to the monkey. Anyway looking forward to Penguinz!

I dunno man, I was pleased with the final product of Join The Army, but at the moment Im finding animating for games a lot more rewarding. I liked the characters in JTA though, maybe I could make a game one day!

put a Rocket Launcher tooo ,
Boom
Awesome Work , Can't wait
