Paralax

I said yesterday "I will have something new to show"

so I spent about 10 minutes making a bush layer and a quick mountain layer:

Like I said, I only spent about 10 minutes making the new layers, so don't expect them to look like that in any demo

And for those that are aware of Twinsen's story, but not aware of me re-writing the story, I know having paralax layers such as these would make no sense with the old story.

Reasons like this has lead me to the decision that I need to rethink the story, it was limiting level design, and having the same blue sky background (though beautiful as hell) would get boring, especially in cave areas and such.

So I have thought up a new story, it's not really important anyways, but it was quite difficult to think of a story that didn't demand anything from the player, and they were still free to play the game however they wanted…

And yup, you'll have to wait till the next demo

Speaking of the next demo, I am quite disappointed it is taking us so long to get it out, we really have very little left to do, but it's just hard to find the time when we can both work together.

Honestly, I think if Cocopuffs and I had one free day, we could get it done and pump out the new demo.

But that day won't come along for a while.

Well, there you guys go, something new from Twinsen, a little insight to the new story, and as weird as it sounds, I'm probably looking forward to the next demo more than anyone else.

Twinsen is the idea I've had for over a year before even making the first sprite, its the dream game I've always wanted to play, but no one ever made it.

So now it's up to me and Cocopuffs

Last night, I made some killer Street Fighter Skins for my DS flash cart (R4, highly recommended), it looks even better on my DS:

I actually made about 25 skins, just with different fighters up the top, if anyone here has an R4, and wants the skins, pm me.

In other Street Fighter/kickass related news; I found a really cool flash animation, it's Street Fighter VS Mortal Kombat, and it's done really well.

only bad thing is the story, seriously, it's really really bad, so just skip the prologue:

BYAAH!
