Laundry Time: Silly Game

chuanoplast · 05-21-2008, 07:37 AM

I am entering the realm of the shindig with my great game, Laundry Time (title may change). It is about a bird-man named Yenri who needs to sort his laundry. This is also the silliest game in this entire shindig. I have never before made a game so I'm sticking with something simple.

So far: Yenri can walk back and forth amongst three(!) laundry baskets. There is a gross background reminiscent of your favorite crappy laundromat. I made a small pixel font too (actually took it from unrelated project involving yarn and Rogue).

I bet you can't guess what the gameplay consists of.

Birds pooping on stuff? It has been a long time since there has been a good bird pooping on stuff game.

I look forward to your first screen shot.

Same here, it sounds pretty amusing so far.

Screenshot!

My favorite is the arcade machine. I need to fix the counter.

The top intentionally left blank so other stuff can fit in (but I might put LAUNDROMAT in blue letters if it doesn't interfere with the other stuff).

Now onto the actual gameplay (most difficult part).

SDFSDKJFHSEDUKIGSHDGOISFDJOUIDFSHX that looks amazing.

Finally, a game where I can separate the whites from the blacks...

Wow that is yellow and awsomely so. Will Ghost Poof be a minigame? Perhaps with a laundry sorting minigame hidden inside of it

I might animate the little screen inside of Ghost Poop if it's not too distracting (or make a bonus .gif), but I think I need to get better at programming before making a minigame...

Very EGA. I love it.

Oh so neglected!

I am currently working on the code for this silly nonsense. Draring is the easy part (though I am a terrible drarer); coding is more difficult because I have never done it before (not counting html/css), but it is tons of fun and now I am regretting choosing a major with very little programming in it (not). So far, pressing space while over a basket makes a window pop up, and there is a ton of half-finished code for randomising clothing, scoring, and misc. nonsense.

Good music may be a problem, but there will definitely be an abomination of a soundtrack filled with Garageband backgrounds and the sultry sound of a shrieking soprano singing improvised nonsense about household chores.

This game looks like MC Hammer on crack, humpty.
