Animation Demo - Me Animating Atoms on a Path

Yes, you get two posts this week! Yay you! This time it's an animation demo, what I mean by that is you will see me animating something. It won't be in real time but double speed.
All animation is done in GIMP.

 Hopefully something useful will come out of this for somebody!

I'm animating this:

 This is a sprite for Tilly's Rose Garden. It will be used when she "dies". I don't want bloody violence in my games so this is what I came up with so you get the point she's incapacitated but without the blood or anything.

I did sketch out the basic idea of what I wanted to do in my sketch book.

Here's The Video:
No sound for your own convenience. I also didn't put any captions because doing that takes up too much space on the screen. I'm uploading directly to blogspot not youtube or anything like that so I can't add annotations. 

This animation only has 8 frames, and took me about 20 minutes to make, maybe less or more I can't tell by the footage. It says a very low amount of minutes and I find it hard to believe I did this that fast. LOL

Oh well, I hope this was enjoyable!

Game Release - Tilly's Rose Garden, New Version! [Still in development!]

Tilly's Rose Garden!

Introducing a brand new game! 

Fun for all ages, “Tilly's Rose Garden” is an enjoyable overhead 2D platform game, similar to pac man in game play, lovely graphics all made in GIMP 2.8 and sounds made in Sony Acid (Demo version). This game is fun for all (even if it is a bit girly!).

Enjoy picking the flowers and avoiding point drainers and enemies, both moving and idle!

Note: This is still in development so there are still bugs and inconveniences!

Creator's Notes:

Edit: I noticed that the menu has a typo! That will be fixed next version.

• Things seem to stick a bit because of the grid and transparency, if your player won't move in to each area smoothly try and lightly tap the movement key you are trying to use, if you don't budge at all then try to go another way, it's a bug I'm trying to see how to fix, but I think it's always going to do that because of the images it gets stuck on.
• If you push on moving blocks they'll go out of alignment be sure not to do that!
   
• I haven't been able to get the cursor to windows to go away even with "Display Cursor" unchecked, I'll figure out how to fix this eventually! - And to add to this, I'm still yet to learn how to make the cursor only appear in menus.
  
  
• This Edition of "Tilly's Rose Garden" has no music, I might change this within the next fixed up version but for now it just has basic sounds.

• All artwork is created in GIMP and all sounds are made in Sony Acid (Free Version).

• To see how many points you have, you have to play in window mode, or full screen; If you press "f4" you will play in a total full screen (No user bar on the bottom or start menu will be visable) and can't see the points. - The points are visable on the upper left hand corner of the window border of the program.

• Saved Games go in to a .sav file, be sure not to delete that when you see it, that's where your saved game is!
• Going in the diagonal directions can cause the player to go out of alignment although not always, just a warning!

GameMaker Room Making Interface

In this video I will show how I make a room in GameMaker, it's pretty simple it's just point and click!

Here's the room when I'm done:

The music in the video is acoustic versions of these songs done by Summertime's End:
In Stereo
The Art Of Succinct Compliments



If you wanna try my game out, you can get the demo here.
It's been much improved since the demo, though.

Enjoy!
