This Is A Job For El Presidente! - Trailer!

[Akatosh]

The "airport" and "palace gates" locations have been finished. Leaves me with a few left... but it turned out I can't draw cities.

(Just to let you know this isn't dead  )

Also, new screenshot.



Always these terrorists.

The game looks brilliant,  Akatosh.
I've always wanted to play as a dictat....I mean democratically elected and loved president. I can't wait!

[MoodyBlues]

  How can such cute characters be so evil unyieldingly patriotic?

This game has a great style and an original theme.  Can't wait!

[Akatosh]

I'm having some trouble progressing (I just can't draw mean enough looking military planning centres and run-down enough shack cities  :'(), but I've found some freely downladable music I'm gonna use for the game. [taken from tropico.de]. You can download it here:

Just wanted you to know it's still not dead 

[Akatosh]

Still not dead! Here is a screenshot from the infamous television series "News With El Presidente", broadcasted every day, right after "Information With El Presidente" and before "Hollywood Blockbusters El Presidente Edited Slightly". We can see the Presidente* of America here, giving a speech.

Akatosh! This is all looks great! 

I just can't draw mean enough looking military planning centres and run-down enough shack cities.

You should not worry : it's precisely because everything is cute that the game have a cynical humor implemented deep on any screens WHILE KEEPING EVERYTHING LITE. Like a Mary-Popin-style  musical comedy... with dictatorship.

And your style of 'minimal-art' drawing make your game very appealing for most of us. Cuze it automatically highlite the important-point and make the player 'keep the focus' on the game. (That's the most difficult to acheive in game-making) and as I recall Me Go Store by is art , style and speeches (most important in that kind of game) totally succeded.

To your towns ... any townish background will do perfectly the job as long as you implemented color-signs of poverty / time destruction. Military base the same : any room can do the job with good [name some military symbolic here].

I'm really looking foward your game.

Looking good! I too love the style.

[Akatosh]

And yet another bumpidy-bump-bump. Don't you go DYING on me, game!

Progress is finally moving along rather smoothly again, so expect release somewhere till the middle of next month. Meanwhile, to keep your interest alive, I've put together a small flash trailer (teaser?) you can watch here.
