Play my game! (Or at least look at the graphics).

[Professor Irony]

I've done the graphics for a freebie iOS game which is now up on the app store, so please have a go and then tell everyone they should clearly hire me, on the grounds that I can draw a reasonable skateboarder.

The main character was originally going to be modelled more explicitly on Kamina from TTGL, but I got cold feet and drew him more conservatively at the last minute. It looks like I'll have the chance to do a few of these though and I've got relatively free reign with the designs, so I might see if I can work any subtle anime references into future titles...

Does that woman have an afro?

 

[Professor Irony]

Hah, I think they've just taken the screenshot with her standing in front of an unfortunately large gold coin.

But for comedy's sake, let's say yes...

 

[ayase]

Will check it out Prof. One of your character designs for the next game has to have a huge afro for real now.

 

[Professor Irony]

Done. And thanks man

 

[chaos]

dl'ing....

 

[Professor Irony]

Thank you sir

Also one of the rival characters in the next game now has a righteous 'fro...

 

[awadama]

I thought Lotta Hart was walking down the street.

 

[Max Takeshi]

More afros needed in iOS games.

 

[chaos]

Plays nicely, I like the soundtrack and the art, but ads pop up while you're playing and the game won't even pause =(

 

[Professor Irony]

Hmm, strange - the pause button works okay on my ipad. Afraid I can't take any responsibility for the coding though - as I say, I only did the graphics for them.

And yeah, the ads are annoying, but I think they're what paid my fee

 

[Otaku-san]

But for comedy's sake, let's say yes...

Nabeshin is pleased by this..

 

[Professor Irony]

I can promise the next game will contain at least 20% more afro...

 

[Professor Irony]

Due to circumstances beyond my control, the subsequent two games never seem to have been released (one of them even had a character with a 'fro ), but the most recent one seems to have made it out. This time it's a little side-scrolling shooter, much in the mould of Sketchman.

And I did manage to work an anime reference into this one too...
