The Billy Game Backup Guide + Dev Log

asked my best friend and his gf to help me with the bosses [bc i want them to look actually good]
today i start the rigorous roads of attack animation

sigh

man you should have made jamiroquai's attacks something retarded like "wicked dance moves"

if only his glorious virtual insanity music video wasnt blocked, i'd show you the man's unbelievable dancing

i'll make it that, then. FTR, i was stumped when i wrote down his attacks so i just went for some generic bs

hell, in my previous, though much more faggy rpg, i had a miniboss named Mr. Thorntits
his primary attack was "shreds down a sick riff"

HERE'S A JAMIROQUAI MOVE SINCE YOU'RE A LAZY FUCK

"virtual insanity"
causes the player to become totally fucking stoned for two turns, sees blood and birds flying -- neither is actually there. reduces any type of accuracy by 25% and also reduces damage inflicted to jamiroquai during its effect.

fuck thats actually really intricate
will do

yeah see i'd make a good move maker for simple rpgs/fighting games/stuff like that

indeed!

update; finished billy's move list animations, starting on ycia's
once again, astonishingly quick progress on my part
i may be rushing this a bit
on the other hand the mind numbing hours of ska and classic metal tell me otherwise
thinkin after all the battle animations i should handle the menu

generic expected update;
last night i did not just finish ycia's and abilly's but also mac's as well
started giant robot's at 8 am, finished at 230pm estimately
also finished jeff mangum's somewhere along in there but it wasnt really much effort as it was just flashes of the album covers
gah i was far too slow today
yet the giant robots was probably the most diverse n shit besides mac's "improbability" attacks
oh fuck i gotta do those, overlooked
then i do most of the enemies' which shouldn't be much, just timed screenflashes as it is one sided but w/e
though all the bosses and most moon enemies will have actual ones in intent for the "abombination" transforms on the final bosse
after that i'll do the menu and font

will do after 4 hour break

so basically youre lazy

hell no lol
shit nigga i stopped working at 11 pm last night without realizing it
dunno why im going so slow today tho
guess im just low on energy
which is wut my breaks are for

gj
take an off day

some day i will celebrate the holiday of off day

you should still take an off day

i will nigg
should now starting on mac's improbability drive moves + 90s-IODM enemy moves wow did i really need to say that of course not i said it earlier see you niggers tomorrow

final update for today because ive posted on this way too fuckin much within this day
turns out these timed flashes wont be worth a damn without sound, so i will have to get back to the anims later [as they are all silent lel], after i manhandle deez graphics, ima sample shit from cuh-lassic nintenduo games [has NOTHING to do with my inability to produce decent music or sfx] and implement them
so
final change of plans =
menu, character sprites, and hopefully i get the tilesets by then, if not ima just hunt down someone else, and after that i will rereport

speaking of character sprites and tile sets
Leaky pip


random battler

^ ^ ^ WHY I NEED SOMEONE ELSE TO HANDLE THIS SHIT

oh god

Two Aquabats variants [one lone, the other conjoined]
Anne Frank
OECIA
Thunderian
Thunderian Leader #1
Thunderian Leader #2

Dr Steel
Nega Billy
Teleporter
The Sailboat
The Aeroplane
and i made some static clutter people like fat old woman, punker, gothie, generic people, pokemon nerd, brony etc.
4 hour break, finish the clutter people spritesheet, do clutter objects and extra animations, do the sprites of all else i overlooked [DID I OVERLOOK ANYTHING GUYS???], then start collecting sound

finished the clutter people n sprites
relatively... i feel theres a bunch more to do...

you know what rt i might just take that off day today

does anyone know of decent sfx sources jesus chist who is going to pay 3 bucks for a 4 second sound

what sounds do you need
