OBJECTIVE:
Explore Anubis’ tomb and search for the god’s treasures guarded by traps and the undead.

Each level contains multiple rooms with one or more treasure chests. The chests hold special idols that are required to open up more areas of the tomb so search high and low for these chests. Some are a little tricky to obtain, but don’t worry since not all chests are required to complete the game. Remember, you can always return to a tricky level later.

Further instructions included in game.

Anyways, I figured I’d post something about designing games to fill some space on the new ssite!

The largest section in game development is, in my opinion, the creative “brain-storming” process.  I spend so much time playing other games on the internet.  I think about how I would improve on the concept, how I could innovate, would I be able to easily develop this new concept, and would anyone play it.  A lot times, I code a concept demo (including horrible graphics) demonstrating the basics I am envisioning.  However, the majority of these never see the light of day.  Instead of writing more about this, I’ve included some images of my failed creations.  Enjoy!

Recognize these guys from Tankmen? I started creating a side-scroller shooter based on these characters that was sadly never finished.  Art by Benedikt.

I started coding a battle sequence for an RPG game.  The one thing I hated about traditional RPGs was the turn based battle, so I coded a system with a more fluidic approach. Art by Tim.

Here’s an image of a multiplayer top-down shooter.  It’s hard controlling all three soldiers at once and the cockroaches killed all my guys.  Art by me!

Feel free to comment on this or any of my games.  Enjoy!

Dec 20 2008 Update :

After more than a year, I’ve made some pretty important changes to This Is Madness. I am aware of the bug that doesn’t allow you to advance past the second Sheriff fight, but it’s been so long since I coded this, my code is trash so I have just introduced a workaround.

HERE IS WHAT YOU MUST DO

On the options menu located on the first section of the game, there is a a button that will transport you to the level right after the Sheriff. It is right below the “Quality” buttons. This will keep all your weapons and ammo. I advise you to play the first section because the enemies will be still be stronger and you need all the weapons you can get. Additionally, if you do choose to play through the first phase, you will most likely get caught in the bug.

IF THAT HAPPENS

Right click and select “Return to Main Menu”. You will still have all weapons and ammo as if you died and returned to the menu from there.

I hope that covers everything. Sorry for updating this so late. Have fun.
