~airwave~ - Take Me Down Two the Paradise City

ThreeOhFour · Wed 30/03/2011 11:48:09

My first GiP thread ever woo

Having no luck getting the local government to deal with the threat of the Airwave Radio station being demolished, local disc jockey Elodie Major makes up her mind to travel to Eda City to meet with the people responsible for the sale of the property to see if she can organize some form of arrangement, suspecting some foul play in the matter.

With the help of some friends - both new and old - Elodie must use her wits and resolve to get to the bottom of the matter and take on the threat before the station is lost.

Status: It's been a while since I worked on this due to computer troubles and a busy life in general, but I've got a new computer and possibly my weekends back to myself, so I hope to push forward and get the next chapter built. After much deliberation I've worked the chapter plot into a shape that I am finally satisfied with, and am currently focusing on puzzle design and some graphics here and there.

Release date: 2011

What can I say? Gorgeous as usual.

Judging by the screenshots it looks awesome! I hope the soundtrack will be awesome aswell.

abstauber · Wed 30/03/2011 12:19:52

Yeah, terrific how your spriting gets better and better and better.

Not to mention that these backgrounds are top notch as usual.

Your puns in the titles are awful! I wonder what you'll make up for chapter 17 or something...

What can I say, looking forward to this, like everyone else. I know it will be great

Ben, is that an off-switch design on Elodie's T-shirt? What will happen if we... press it? (Or is it an on switch?

)

I never even noticed the pun in the first game until now... I feel stupid $:-\$

If it's an on-switch I guess that, once pressed, Elodie will take you to that place where the grass is green and the girls are pretty...

Hipster chicks, neon signs and graffiti? Colour me excited!

Wow, damn you're right.
Lode was just in your signature.

Is this an attention-whoring kind of GIP? Cause I love those.

Also the title pun is AAWESSSSEOOOOMMMEEEE.

Your backgrounds have come a long way 304! Lovely colour choice for the sprites!

4 pun is easy, but what are you going to do for 3?

Spoiler

Tree and a turd + tree and a turd + tree and a turd = Ten.

Looks lovely.

Looks awesome!

Thanks for the lovely comments!

I haven't discussed the soundtrack with Sebi in much depth yet - I want to get most of the city built so he can get a better feel for it first. But, of course, I am quite positive that the soundtrack will be every bit as good as in the first game!

Yes, tis the standby signal on her shirt. I like choosing simple symbols for low-res characters, so that I can add detail to their shirt without needing a lot of space to do so!

Glad to hear the awful puns receiving the condemming they rightly deserve!

Also pleased to hear that people like the graphics! It's lovely of you to say

Moresco · Wed 30/03/2011 19:42:26

It's no secret that I love your art style. I will definitely be watching this game.

theo · Wed 30/03/2011 23:13:49

Lookin' absolutely fantastic! I'm very much looking forward to exploring this city of yours.

There best be fancy animated backdrops. I have come to expect them. 8)

ThreeOhFour · Thu 31/03/2011 15:39:46

Thanks guys! There will be some background animation. The level of fanciness is yet to be seen 8)

You posting in the GiP forum definitely took me by surprise. I was like: "Oooh! New Ben game! Yippeee!" - and only then did I notice it's not in the Completed Games forum. Nevertheless... Looks gorgeous - but you just got us used to that

The grass might not be green (or even present, judging by the screenshots), but the girls are pretty. I'll miss the little town and its wacky, friendly inhabitants - but I'm expecting a crazy ride in Par-Eda-ise City, nonetheless

Don't be sad, at least he's not posting this today.

Anyway, definitely a game that I am looking forward to playing.
