Title: background + characters for C&C -Update-
Post by: nope! on Wed 18/02/2004 13:27:33
For my first only-one-room game, I try to make 3 characters, which could be used by any AGS user - RON games concept-

from the left to the right:

- The "Green guy".
Hobbies: invading planets and kidnapping cows.

- Marvin, the paranoid android.
Really optimistic droid head (thanks to the new Prozacium processor).

- "I'm not Small" Monolith, well-known multi-functional entity.
Hobbies: being selfish, shouting, going berserk.

The characters look very cute. The discriptions are really funny too. You use a lot of stereotypes, but  it sounds very fresh and funny. A very original concept :) But I am not really sure what the "glass thing" is?

12431 : Marvin looks better, now?

Totoro: yes, I use a lot of stereotypes. I want to make a first-try-one-room game, that will be the introduction of futher games.

I hope that, in the sequel, the 3 characters will evolve (nope , they're not Pokemon!).

The "glass thing" is in fact the special mirror (between Marvin and the Monolith)

M0ds and Totoro: you're cute too :)

some alternative views:

Green Man: Eyes
Marvin: OFF (eyes) and other smile
"Glass thing": other shape
Monolith: mouth

Isn't the paranoid android from Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy?
And if so, I hate to tell you he's dead.

Read the books everyone!!!  Great British humour!

I now have British humour ... what do I do with it?

Douglas Adams was and remains one of my favorite authors of all time.  I've read and re-read tHGttG, like oh my god, 10 times!

Fer sher ...

Yeap, I've read and re-read Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy (the trilogy is good but the last two books -IV and V- are so disappointing)

And I love Marvin. So , I started to think about a "Evil Twin" character: a dumb optimistic robot.

Anyways, Douglas Adams, Rest in Peace.
