[Sheepolution]

A game for the competition on the Dutch Game Maker Community.
Make a game with 2 keyboard keys.

First..
This is going to be a platform game. I got my inspiration (partially) from the super awesome game called Depict 1. I will try not to steal too many things from the game, but you will see some equations.

In Negative, you play in a world with negative colors. In you, is a small circle. In this circle everything will be shown positive. At the beginning the circle is really small, but how more monsters you will kill, how bigger it gets (and how easier it is to kill monsters).

Gameplay
The rules say: 2 keyboard keys (that means no mouse).
I have the follow controls:
A    = Walk left
D    = Walk right
A+D  = Jump
2x A = Shoot left
2x D = Shoot right

Story
Not yet..

Screens


There is not much to tell about it, but I will update the development here (ofcourse).

I've figured out that I won't be able to make this game on my own. My programming skills aren't that good. So I've asked people to work together on this game, no confirmations yet.
I can't show you really much, except the character sprites:

I hope I find a programmer soon.

Try posting in the business > jobs > unpaid collabs board with a basic design of your idea and requirements?

If you list what features you want I could write you some simple code and explain it.

I've found a programmer
Tomorrow we can start the developing! I will update it, and show you a screen from what it looks like right now

[Sheepolution]

I'm happy that I'm able to show you this screen.

As you can see, at the beginning the circle is really small, but it will get bigger, and you can see the positve colors easier. The background may look annoying, I need to change that.

__________________________
I've changed the name from Tive to Negative. I thrown the Postive idea away, and keep it at the Negative concept. I also designed a font, I used it for the titel. I hope I can move my character from left to right this evening. Update soon.

I guess I'm really bad at devloging, because I'm not really updating it.
The problem is, there is not much to tell. I can tell you that I have a kind of idea for a story, wich will be good. I think I can start with the level design soon.
