New Class. New Blog.

So going to produce three personal animation projects in this class. The first one I'm looking at doing is a bumblebee themed collection style game. I promised my boyfriend a while back that I would make a bumblebee game. So now I'm finally getting around to it. The basic plot of the game is to direct the bee around a garden and collect pollen from the glowing flowers. Along the way wasps will try to attack you and you shoot honey bombs (stingers are so over used anyway) at the wasps to kill them. Bonuses are achieved by collecting the random "artifacts" in the garden for the queen's treasury.
I'm still open to changes. Right now I'm just designing the environment and the characters. I might try GameMaker to put it together, or if that doesn't pan out then I'll switch to GameSalad. This is an independent study so any comments and/or critiques on here would be welcome.

The bee so far:
