Squid! Squiddy! Squidling! Squid! I don't know why I did this but I kind of like it so I thought I'd share with the group. I can't even remember what it was for and I haven't had any hot, inky, squid action for ages so here you go.
Here's some more eleven year old work from the Gameplay vaults. This was our Bust-A-Move clone re-skin: Shooting Stars. It's like it was from a different age and in a way it was. To be honest I'm not sure there's enough flare on the title. Increase the glitter threshold by 200% please. Happy days.
Cast your mind back to the year 2000. Remember that brave new world? Back then I think I was enjoying the best real job I ever had with loads of lovely people. We on the interactive TV game department could basically do what we wanted. You never get that freedom now with game designs and I think it shows. This was the title screen to TACOT racers: Tiny Animated Creatures On Television was the acronym (although there was a another secret acronym for those in the know). This was a top down racer for ITV. I didn't do the CGI but I designed the characters. I don't think we got a UK release but we were massive in Scandinavia. It was a shame Gameplay went spectacularly tits ups but it still remains in its original pre-evolved form here.
Seeing as everyone is doing their take on Hello Kitty for Sanrio's 50th anniversary I thought I'd have a go. I haven't done a kitten parasite for a while and they're always a treat to draw so I've seized the chance. Adorable.
The Shock Flock is still simmering away in the background if you'll indulge me to mix my metaphors. But I don't really know what to do with them. Everyone loves zombie sheep don't they? One day their potential will be realised and I'll unleash them into the world... but until that day you may rest easy Gentle Reader.
Here's this week & last week's Dandy cover. I'm worried they're all too similar, but I suppose they're still establishing the new branding. Hopefully they'll start showcasing other stories soon and have the confidence to move away from celebrities. That said my Korky has been getting bigger on each progressive cover. Maybe it's only a matter of time until I get that coveted cover gig. You never know.
People are loving the jellies. Here's one from the Dungeon Master's manual that I had been unaware of: The gelatinous cube. It's just a square thing that goes around engulfing and digesting all it enconters. You'll be alarmed to know that it's impervious to magic too. Can nothing stop it?
