For the last two months I haven’t had time to start the ‘A Super Heroes Race’ project because of work commitments. During this time I thought of a different idea which I will work on instead.
The Story
Humanity has been wiped out, the world is a baron wasteland and the new rulers of this earth are insects... (Hear me out). Dolph the Honey Bee was a happy bee, his honey empire was incredibly successful and the product is the most important resource on the planet. Everything depends on honey, so basically honey is the new oil... sweet tasty oil.
The Main Character (Fig 1)
Even though Dolph is incredibly rich and runs such a prestigious industry, he’s a very caring bee who distributes his honey fairly. So not willing to be controlled by the corrupt senate, he cuts all ties with them. Everything went smoothly for two months, people were happy, but the senate started to lose money and power. A week passes by, Dolph and his family are enjoying a quiet night in. BOOM, the door is kicked open. Dolph’s kids scream as five hooded flies burst through the door. They execute Dolph’s family and leave him for dead.
Game's Concept 1 (Fig 2)
A month later Dolph awakes on an operating table, a scientist named Hubris saved his life and fitted him with biotic parts to keep him alive. These parts enhance his strength and stamina. Dolph cannot forget what has happened to his family, so he is seeking revenge.
Game's Concept 2 (Fig 3)
This game will be a side-scrolling ‘shoot-em up’, which will consist of five levels. The player will keep moving to the right and will start with three lives. There will be checkpoints throughout the level.
Game's Concept 3 (Fig 4)
The Characters:
Grasshoppers
These enemies will jump up from the ground and attack the player with their blades, which are attached to their arms.
Flies
There are two types of flies, the kamikaze fly and the gunner fly. These are the most basic form of enemy.
Kamikaze Fly (Fig 7)
Ants
There will be ants that run along the ground, shooting mortars and guarding honey pots.
Butterflies
The butterflies are sub-bosses; they are equipped with a gun and a large health bar.
The Butterfly (Fig 11)
A Spider
The final boss will be a large cyborg spider. The player must destroy 6/8 legs to defeat it. The spider will fall to its death. This spider has many guns.
Controls
LMB (Left Mouse Button) – The LMB will fire Dolph’s handgun. The character will aim wherever the mouse curser is on the screen.
W – Up
A – Left
S – Down
D – Right
SPACEBAR – Shoot a missile from Dolph’s sting.
Here are some of my original ideas for the game:
