Heads Or FailsIntroduction:Hello all you beautiful people. I decided to create a devlog for my game as I make progress. I know this is a great place to show what you've done and receive great feedback.
The Game:Heads Or Fails is a multiplayer party game where each game-mode has one main objective, don't lose your head. There will be two modes. The first is a fighting(?) type mode. You'll be able to use your attacks, weapons and maybe powerups to try to take off your opponent's head. One thing that I want to achieve with this game is to have the violence come off more like Looney Tunes instead of Mortal Kombat.
During the fight and other modes, your limbs may and probably will come off. Don't you worry though, because you have the ability to reattach your limbs OR any limbs you find on the ground. If you decide you rather pick up the limb to use as a weapon you can do that too or you can pick up a weapon/item and use it as a limb. Your movement speed also changes based on the number of legs you have or don't have. Plus, if you're missing a limb, you could always try to grab one off an opponent or just grab the opponent to throw them.
The other mode is a game-show that has the players doing the different mini-games. As you can guess, the game show will be called: "Heads Or Fails"
Mini-Games: Hangman:A fun twist on a classic game. You know the rules and how to play, but when your guess is wrong, your player loses a limb but if you get it right, everyone else loses a limb. Player who gets the last letter survives while everyone else explodes into pieces.
Build A Body:The round starts with everyone as just a head. There are limbs scattered around and it's a race to see who can build their body first.
BasketHead:An easier version of basketball. Hit your opponents, pick up their head and throw it in the basket. First one to the set score wins.
Headless HorsemanAll players start off with no head. One player is randomly selected to be the headless horseman and is given the pumpkinhead as a result. For each second you keep your head on, you gain a point.
Balloon HeadIt's basically Hot Potato but with your head. One player is randomly selected to have their head turned into a balloon. They must hit someone else to switch the balloon to them before it pops. (I am thinking about changing this to where all player's heads are turned into balloons. A pickup of some kind will spawn randomly in the level and it becomes a chase to get it to deflate your head.)
Other mini-games:There will be more, I just don't want to give them all away right now.
Pictures/GifsNOTE: All assets are free models I downloaded. They won't be in the released game. I'm just using them for now until I can somehow find a 3D modeller/animator who is willing to hop on the project.
This is just to show that your legs affect your speed and animations in the way you move. (Not all moving animations are done)You can pick up other player's limbs.Hangman Mode:Headless Horseman:Balloon Head Mode:(This is a gif, not a still image)
