Control Screen

Here's the control screen that displays which controls are used in the game. I made this a while back and forgot to post it, so here it is:

Sk8 or Die and Zombie Textures

Here's a new shop called Sk8 Or Die:

New zombie textures, which are really just recolors (what a huge time saver! Ha! Ha!):

Mall Backgrounds: Da Shore and Game Shop Plus Zombie Texture

I've also worked with a zombie texture which you can see below:

Mall Backgrounds: Inner Child, Jen and Berry's, and Granny's Cookies

For now, I have separated these images into layers. The idea is that when the player moves across a shop, he/she can see depth in the shops. Here's what I have for now:

Inner Child:

Jen and Berry's:

Granny's Cookies:

Mall Backgrounds: Build-A-Robot and Barrels of Fun

I got two new images. Here they are:

Mall Backgrounds: Nerdstrom and Super Fly Ties

Here are a couple of mall shops I've worked on: 

Pwn Shop, Lacy's, and Victor's Secret

Here are the backgrounds I've worked on:

Graphics for Mall Cop Rampage

Below, I drew some graphics for the game. The first two items are the vending machine and the gun shop sign. In the game, the player will eventually face a fork in the road and must choose a path. One path is the same path on the bottom floor where there are vending machines.  The other is an escalator which leads to the gun shop. Vending machines replenish any depleted health, and the gun shop is where the player can spend money on power-ups. We thought it would be a good idea if we had a sign which drops a big hint of where the gun shop is, which is why I drew the gun shop sign. 

Next, I drew the health bar. The group thought it'd be hilarious if we had a donut resemble a health bar. So, I drew just that. With each hit from a zombie, a bite in the donut would appear. If you notice, there's also trails of crumbs which replace a whole piece. These crumbs emphasize on the lack of donut chunks left. I drew the donut in fourths, but we as a group did not quite decide on this factor so these graphics may change.

Zombie Concept Art

I drew some of my zombie ideas and two more zombies that were mentioned in class. The other two being a lady zombie with a purse and a big hulking zombie. I tried my best to make the art look cartoony without making the zombies looking too much like the zombies seen in Plants vs. Zombies.

Zombie Ideas for Mall Cop Game

I've been thinking about what kind of zombies we could have for our game. Instead of just having the typical slow moving zombies, we should mix things up a little just to make the game a bit more frantic. Here's a list of what I thought up. Tell me what you think:

Regular zombie- These are your typical slow moving zombies. Easy to blast down.
Fast zombie- Zombies that run.
Jumping zombie- Zombies that jump and try to stomp on you. I was thinking these zombies could be on pogo sticks for a comical effect.
Spitting zombie- Zombies that spit some kind of pus that damages the player.
Flying zombie- Zombies that fly in the air and try to drop on the player. I was thinking these guys could be wearing jet-packs to fly around and the jet-pack detaches once the zombie's directly above the player.

Metal Justin Bieber!... I mean Fieber!

Here's a concept for one of our bosses for our potential game. In the game a famous pop singer named Justin Fieber (modeled after Justin Bieber), operates this mechanical version of himself. I have a couple of ideas of how this boss fight could function. Perhaps he could sound like Godzilla and use an attack in which it spews out a loud stream of pre-pubescent voice that injures the player. Anyway, enough of my thoughts here's the image:

Mall cop shooter boss concept for presentation

Here's an example of what types of bosses we're probably going to come up with for the Mall cop game: 

Basically most of the boss fights are going to resemble iconic characters from several movies and video games. Most of the bosses are going to ride on segways like the hero. Here, we have a picture of Nemesis from Resident Evil 3 standing next to a segway. While the final version of this boss is not going to be Nemesis, its going to be a super zombie that's somewhat modeled after this creature.
