Rock'n Roll backgrounds and soldier pack

The soldier pack was a nice experience, mainly a learning experience. Bringing a character to life is something hard...
I had almost no experience in that. I realised how different a rendering may look from the actual look in game; it's something to take into account for the next character I'll work on.

Big thanks to the GG guys, especially Josh for his coolness and Jeff for all the work done in anims and export (and customer support :) )

I'm now finished with the 2D plateformer: Rock'n Roll (set in prehistory). In this game you must roll a wheel to the end of the level without breaking it. See previous plan for some monsters.

Here are some of the background:

And the Game over screenshot ("12000 years later...") where wheel are replaced by some weak legs :)

Very nice art. Is the steering wheel in the car still called a steering wheel?

Man, if I was the drill seargent for that soldier, he'd be doin' 50 everytime I saw him -- what with that silly smirk on his face... "WIPE THAT SMIRK OFF YOUR FACE SOLDIER!!"

Fantastic work!

Ben -Djaggernaut- Chavigner (Aug 02, 2005 at 18:19 GMT)

Thanks for the kind words :)

@ Brett: lol so true

@Unsung Zero: good question, I didn't thought about it, it's called "volant" in french, wich has nothing to do with a wheel, I guess people wont notice :D

Here is the screen when you win:
