Debug Room - Vamprotector 1/5/2013

Got some work done while on vacation, still working out bugs. Next, overhead climbing, 360 firing, different firing modes, and item usage.Oh yeah, don't know how well it shows in the vid but the game is set at 60 frames per sec.

Your whip anchor seems a wee bit masochistic.

LOL! It should really say "Whip me, I've been very bad!"

By the way darkmanx_429, what song is playing in the debug room? Is that something you composed or is it an oldie?

Actually, the tune is Panthro's theme from the original Thundercats...lol

Well, it's not in the official game or anything just for demo purposes...

Hey guys, it's been a minute since I had a chance to post. Since my bud Warmachine posted update process on his game Castlevania Chronicles: Dracula's Curse I figured I should give a status to where I am at on Vamprotector. Well, I finally graduated and got my Bachelor's in Video Game Art and Design, I moved cross country to from the West Coast to the East Coast, my website is up and running, and I am off to look for a new gig at another Game Company. So it's been a little hetic. I had a brief family emergency after I got in, but now that everything is calming down sum I started to map out pretty much all the maps for Vamprotector. Right now I can give you sneak peak of the Atlantis stage that I am working on. Many of you may have seen the preview vid where you are riding on the Contra 4 "waverunners" at the beginning of the stage. That leads into a classic CV Atlantis platform area and finally the classic waterfall area from the original Contra. The mapping is actually moving pretty brisk as I had all school to gather ideas and now finally I can put them digitally online. After the mapping is done I will begin importing everything into MMF2 and I will be able to produce a nice preview vid similar to the one Warmachine just posted for his project. All images present works in progress:

Funtastic.

Are those Contra 4 tilesets I see in the waterfall area?

Some of it, but actually I am using alot of modular mapping as well as photoshop to get some unique looking maps. Don't forget too, this is just the base maps. Alot of those open areas will be accented with other modular pieces (i.e. plants) so that the areas look full and I may add more props or too.

As for stages, it's looking like it's going to be 12 stages in the game total. 6 for each character respectfully, with hidden stages about and such. The stages are, Stoker's Fable; Snowfield; Neo City; Ghost Ship; Cario, Egypt; Berlin, Germany; Alien's Lair; Demon Castle War type stage;Jungle, Contra base type stage;Industral;and a Contra top down.

Demon Castle War type stage

I wanna see this stage being as busy as possible. Tanks, soldiers, explosions, lightning and fire storms, and hordes of undead marching on the allies as they fight against the invading darkness. And don't forget to chalk it up with some awesome music too!  personally I would use this tune for just such an intense stage:

Contra 4-Neo City

[Lelygax]

Remix that with Opposing Bloodlines and its become perfect. xD

We've actually mixed that tune with Neo City (Contra 4) and Battle of the Holy(Aria of Sorrow). My bud Warmachine hooked it up a while back.

How does it sound?
