Hey Garage Games!

I am really excited at the speed of our project, "Suds". If you are unfamiliar about Suds check my last blog out. www.garagegames.com/blogs/19571/11448 . Blur Games picked up a new coder, Gustavo Boni and his contribution so far as been amazing.

A redesign of Suds? Well it was needed. The original Suds I created was well programmer art and didn't look like a bar of soap, more like a crazy washing machine. Here is the new Suds which is meaner, and has way more character. Also shown is the big germ boss at the end of the level. Thank you Ric, you did it again. Check this out!

Tiles and background are still temp art. Feedback/ideas are welcome.

The new character design looks great, a definate improvement over the old programmer art. Now he kind of reminds me of Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. :)

Thanks for pointing that out David, heh. We might change the name to Germades thanks to Philip Mansfield.

Much better. Is he Dove or Oil of Olay?

All joking aside, this is a great job.

Heh, its all thanks to Ric (the new Suds that is). Thanks for all the kind words. His original name was Dial but I changed it to Suds because we probably couldn't have a brand name character. I also like Suds much better! Thanks again.

The main character looks so serious that it's comical. I like the artwork a lot. Good job!
