Old meeting recap

Hey guys, this is from the 13th but I figured it would be useful to have up on the blog for creating things.


Anarkitty NEW TUTORIAL LEVEL Asset List:

-Owner: Cat lady? Or Middle aged man?(Comic book guy: Also, upgrades can become more accessible due to the comic book guy having so many action figures with accessories. And it ties more towards the story )

-Show that this is comic book guy’s house, throughout the environment (posters, dvds, game controllers, etc). He could grab the hookshot from one of the action figures throughout the house.

-Couch: Love seat? Or full couch?

-Cheese Puff Bag w/ various puffs

-Cat beds and toys

-Television

-Plastic Animal Fence thing

-Scratching post

-Coffee Table/Pizza Box/Debris

For the animals is anarkitty going to be fighting them in his imagination? Or is he going to beat up house pets?

-2Cat models(having the cats be alley cats make the story not need cannon for when anarkitty returns home. What if we needed anarkitty to get something outside of the house, and run into the alley cats who are mean to him introducing combat. )

(have house cats teasing him and then causing harm to him, so anarkitty doesn’t look like he’s harming innocent civilians)

-A dog knight (imagination and realistic)

-Make sure player is introduced to all mechanics throughout tutorial.

-Combat (cats)

-Wallslide (Cheetos) (Being caught by desk lamp while comic book guy is playing mmorpg)

-Yarnshot (Plastic Fence)

-Crawl Mechanic (Pizza Box mountain/Debris & Garbage)

End tutorial: Test your skills reviewing all mechanics and fight the alley cats!

-Newer Mechanic later: Hanging upside down and crawling along the ceiling.

-Possible female character that would introduce this mechanic. Think assassins creed2 with the girl who taught ezio to super jump!

For next week!:

-Environment sketches! (depending on how many areas we created total)

-Level map! (A rough layout of what, were)

-Assets, Assets, Assets! (Once we have the level is solid and established we can begin creating assets for the tutorial level)

First Draft Level Design

This is a first draft for the level design for the tutorial...

New Intro

Some thumbnails of the new intro to the tutorial level. In a nutshell, Anarkitty is practicing his sweet fighting moves when he overhears a PAWS commercial on the TV (gotta script that still) and dashes off to find his crime fighting gear to end the injustice once and for all.

anarkitty owner model sheet



So, I was thinking this is the owner we could run with for Anarkitty.
I tried not going over the top with the whole comic book guy look, do you guys have any idea for a name?
Or do you even think we need one?

Also, I think that we should be able to clean him up and give him a officers hat and some shades and we can reuse the model and make him a fatter security guard.
Look forward to Wednesday to really start to hammer out this tutorial level.
