This is a video of a super early prototype that I'm working on. Its going to be a snow, ice, frozen themed platformer starring this little guy. I have more animations completed I just have to program them into the game.

This guy, tentatively known as Kid Cool, will be able to freeze enemies with his power, and use them as blocks to knock other enemies down. I'm obviously inspired by pixel art. My last game featured 1-bit art assets, but this time I'm going to combine 1-bit sprite work, with more colorful background & foreground environment assets to create a unique feel and aesthetic.

I'll still be using Gdevelop to create this game, but this time my art assets will be created from a software program called Aseprite. This is a great way to speed up your pixel art, the application was designed specifically for pixel art so there's lots of short cuts and ways to streamline your process.

I'm also planning on having restrictions on the level design to streamline the development timeline as well. For example, this game will only have X-axis camera movement. There will only be left & right gameplay mechanics. This will reduce the programming time on creating new enemies.

Stay tuned for more!
