I am Locky

I was involved in the development side of creating the squizz video game.

It took alot of work but I am happy with what it turned out as.

Basically the idea of it is there are brutal octopus ninjas that are trying to commit genocide on the baby squid race, and you, as squizz are the last remaining baby squid in the region.

The idea is that you will stay alive as long as possible, while the ninjapus's try to kill you.

You can pick up extra points by eating fish that are floating by, and collect health from special health fish

Up to now

Over the last few weeks i have made several different fish animations and a few different styles but we ended up going with the a lot more simplistic ninja style

Above is the first style of ninja i went with but we ended up going to far out of theme with its and completely scarping it for something more cartoonish

The artistic Style now

Due to time limits we have now cut down the work to have just squizzy defending himself from the falling weapons of the ninjas having squizzy dodge the shruiken for as long as possible and have a counter to see the longer you survive the better off your score will be

There is currently a background layer for the bottom of the ocean and one for just the normal ocean








And a Shruiken that will be falling to be dodged


As well as squizzy and his animations

Concepts

The original idea was to have a character Squizzy the squid fly's through space in an asteroid styled gameplay where you use ink to shoot and destroy the asteroids

Secondly we thought of squizzy being in the sea eating/killing fish with his big booty hoes

Now we have currently come up with a more abstract idea of the squid trying to survive the seas with a ninja war above having fallen shuriken and other weapons as well as your occasional dead ninja bodies
