The Engine and Some Platforms
Posted 26th Oct 09, by doc future  
This game is based on a soundtrack I'd developed for a Sonic Parody called Jasper Jackalope:

That game never game to fruition, but I still wanted to make a game with the music. This game may even share level structure with Jasper Jackalope, but I've expanded the concept to include other video games besides Sonic. This is not going to be so much an I Wanna Be The Guy style mashup of different video game sprites and music, but more taking the concepts themeselves from old platformers and remaking them into something new.

I've been working on the engine and right now I have the core engine and some basic platforms. I'm going to start working on some level gimmicks next.

Here is a video of the game in action so far:

From the video, the engine looks like it works pretty well.
