Diary/scratchpad for
Main idea: re-imagining classic game of River Raid. It looked like that:
It’s not the first game I played, but it’s the first that I remember having fond memories around it.
Actually, quite a while ago I have drafted myself a plan of “learning gamedev”. There were many things on it, but one of it was - to recreate a few classic games, including River Raid. So I take this opportunity to finally kickoff this project. The end goal is to release it on itch, so I was brainstorming for a title that wouldn’t infringe on anyone’s copyrights . And I come up with “Canyon Onslaught” . Maybe I’ll come up with better idea later, but it will do for now.
To be clear - I don’t even imagine to make a game in a week (I possibly could do something if I would jam for whole week, but that’s not the point). This week I want to focus on Collab, so first of all establish “art direction” and create a prototype assets and scene for the game.
