Tasty Planet 2 Mockup

Posted by James on February 11, 2010 under Tasty Planet | 6 Comments to Read

We’re hard at work on Tasty Planet 2. This is roughly what we’re aiming at for the visuals (click to see full size):

This isn’t in-game. It’s just a rough mockup that Kris did in Photoshop but it should give you a good idea of what the game will look like. (Ignore the seams in the grass.)

You can see that we’re changing the design of the grey goo a bit. We haven’t animated it yet, but the idea is that the center mass with the eyes on it will lead the rest of it, so it will look like it has a trail of translucent goo behind it.

I like the idea of the centre mass too.

Nice. Thanks for the update mate.

These new designs don’t seem as “kiddie” as the original. The blob doesn’t lok as cute in these diagrams.

Though these are just rough designs too.

As you may know, there is a direct relationship between eyeball size and cuteness… So maybe the eyes need to be bigger.

the eyes are fine,if you ask me. but you probaly did not.

You can see in the recent screenshots that we did increase the size of the eyes a bit (relative to the goo size).
