accousticguitar Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Would it be possible to make the bonus block a different color than the bad guys so it's easier to tell which one to pursue and which one to avoid? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Unfortunately the bonus block is sharing the same color as the red balloon. I'm making this game as a donation to Zoe Howard (a.k.a. RetroGamerZoe). She's building up a site and various other things to encourage more girls to get into retro gaming. She requested a few changes so far. One of them is to change the bonus item into a retro console. Hopefully I can come up with a recognizable sprite yeah. I first compared this to flappy bird but it's obviously an homage to Balloon Fight on the NES. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Maybe that guy who was making a ton of sprites could help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
