Holy crap, it's done!
Our play on "A Small World" was to take the world and scope of a child playing with his toys. You control a space hero action figure blasting bullets, bouncing balls, and nerf darts to stem the oncoming tide of toy dinosaurs and army men coming at you.
We had a lot of fun with our whimsical take on the theme, and it really allowed us to go all out with our ideas. For example, we looked at the nerf dart and thought, "Man, wouldn't it be fun if the hero could ride that?" As absurd as it is, that's the kind of thing a kid wouldn't dismiss as impossible... He'd just do it! So we slowed the bullet down, slapped on the right behaviors, and voila- a nerf dart riding space man!
From myself, Adriana, and Guin, we really hope you guys enjoy our project, and look forward to playing yours!
IMPORTANT NOTE - Please use WASD to control the hero, not arrow keys, as arrow keys are currently bugged! Thanks!
