Cut the roots -game & interface designs
🕑 Added 2023-06-07 12:48:30 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
This week I've been working on some re omart for the minigames. And that's because I'm currently getting some help with the coding of the games- so the more art I have, the easier it will be to put these games together :)
Cut the roots!
So as mentioned last month, one of these games is about cutting down a plant with a hedgecutter. The goal here, is to cut away ever regrowing roots, by clicking on the root-ends. Clear the screen before your battery runs out, and you win!
And this is how the game will look :)
These roots grow in all directions- and consist out of various parts. And to make everything fit together, I had to make a 'tile set' where each root fits pixel-perfect to the next.
Now this is quite a tricky job! But when I was still a freelance artist, I often made sets like these for other games. So luckily I knew what to do :)
Well, here you can see a few steps of my creation process for these tiles.
I hope you like how it turned out :)
Interface deigns
Now to complete these mini-games, they also need their own interface elements; like a hud & mouse-icons.
And I feel there is an art to making a good interface elements; where the goal is to clearly tell the player what's going on. So, when making these elements, I always try to design them as if they were 'trafic signs'. For traffic signs are all unique, yet the same -and therefore easily recognizable.
So keeping that in mind, I made these mouse icons! The icons on top were already in game, and the animated icons below are for the new mini-games.
And here you can see the various huds I made for the mini-games. Every minigame is unique, but still I managed to fit all information in more or less the same frame.
Well, there are not many boobs in these designs, but I still hope you like them :)
All the best!

Man, Robin, the detailed work and thought you put into this game is impressive -- and definitely appreciated! And don't worry about the lack of boobs! :-D Have you *seen* the internet lately? :-) I suspect it's at least 65% boobs all day, every day, if you look carefully enough! Heh But seriously, thank you for all your work to entertain us. Be well!
