Miniature Space Invaders Request

· 3 messages · 21 Apr 2009 - 22 Apr 2009
Hi all,
Are you interested in making a miniature (2 line) space invader?
I've been toying with a terminal [*] version of a space invaders game.
The one invader I've drawn so far is:
frame 1 frame 2
<><> <><>
`' ' `
The invaders are animated, so each one will need 2 frames at least
(I'm open to up to 4, but will make no promises to use that many
frames). Nor do I promise to use all ideas, only to credit the ones I
use.
The original space invaders had 3 invaders (2 frames each) and a
mother ship. I have not made any decisions on how many invaders I
want. I do have block doodles of the original invaders, but those
seem to hinder more than help, to come up with ideas.
Johann
[*] Dos window, for some of you.
