Whoa, I really loved the design. Those enemies are super awesome! Nice job! Do you have a page on IndieDB or Facebook that I can follow?
Damn, Pagemaster. Brings back memories <3

@GabZero, thank you very much. Grabbing some of those sweet Pagemaster member-berries. I do have a page on IndieDB, http://www.indiedb.com/forum/thread/the-book-of-alex-squaretales-pixel-game and a fb page, https://www.facebook.com/Bacrylic/ but there's not much attention there. I've been posting mostly on pixel forums and here, but my twitter has most of my current updates, https://twitter.com/Bacrylic1. I'm very excited with one of my recent concept designs for another inkling, I think you guys will find it wicked. As soon as I get the ok I'll make the reveal. |

I'll follow you on FB since I don't use Twitter, thanks for sharing. Why don't you create your game page on indieDB instead of a forum post? |

@GabZero, idk. I guess I wanted to wait for when we had more content to start an indiedb game page. Oh, and as I mentioned earlier, meet the newest member of the Inkling family. The Ambigross (name pending), our first rank 7 inkling.  Inklings are composed of drops of ink, books and sometimes random pages. The consistent feature is an ink drop as the mainbody, the rest is made up of droplets or solidified ink that has taken the form of punctuation or an actual line of text from the pages themselves, forming a figure. For instance, should a page have a line that says 'armor' the Inkling's body could be built out of armor, or have an attack involving armor. The Ambigross is an Inkling that got a hold of a few extra dangerous pages. If he didn't already look tough, he's still holding a few surprises. |

And our knight Inkling. We'll probably be using him as our mini boss for a demo, but chances are you could see these guys quite often in the final gameplay.  |

I was interested to see you say The Pagemaster the film and not the game as an influence. Does that mean you haven't played the game, or are purposely not using it as an influence for design choices? The sprite work and animations remind me of the game a lot. I mean that as a compliment. Nice work, hope you manage to continue with the project.

@ashtonmorris, Thank you very much.
@O.Smith, I haven't played the game but I have seen the gameplay and was unimpressed with how it faired compared to the concept of the movie. There was some things I liked, but a lot that I didn't. It's influenced by concept mostly, so we won't be taking anything directly out of the Pagemaster, its more like a bit of a homage to the idea.

Just seeing this now, as the other have said the animations and inkling designs are superb! The Pagemaster brings back a lot of nolstalgia to me too, so that's cool. I'm curious about the backgrounds, in what kind of areas will the game take place?

@Alce, thanks something I'm still working on. I hope to implement several elements from within the classical stories we use as call-outs to the original story.

@PetSkull. Thank you.
Well, its digitally hand drawn. As opposed to 3D? Then yeah, 2D.

Working on my level design. A step up from my last attempt. Excuse the mess of colors, I was testing something and this was a picture grab from that. Currently working on cleanup. Attempting to add foreground and background elements that will blend well with the midground.  |
