I had to put it in a link because it was too big for the page. D8
The Twilight Hills (another placeholder name of course) will probably be near DarkWood Town, away from the bigger towns.
Character designs coming soon!

FIRST SCREENSHOT WHAT




This is an actual screenshot of the starter town in BulbaRun, Littletree (hence: Project Littletree).

Everything here was made by me (except for the character sprites and the rayquaza statue), so yes, I had to sprite the houses, doors, paths, bushes, trees, and fences all my myself. D8
The green bar is health, red is PP.
Now before you start thinking I'm some sort of zombie-robot who has done all this in two days, note that I started the game in November, but only started the blog yesterday. XD
Next up: Mapping out the game world, coding the Celebi Forest, and spriting more items and scenery.

FIRST CONCEPTS WHAT

Nummy concept art.
This is the Celebi Forest (it's a placeholder name, shut up), which will be East of the starting town, Littletree.



I wanted to make up a quick picture of what the forest will generally look like, but I got a little carried away, I guess.

Also if you have any ideas for distinguishing features or accessories for the main character (seen here) I'd love to hear them. I'm thinking maybe some bangles or something, I dunno.
Shall post more spamtastic concepts later, prolly.

FIRST POST WHAT

So, this is my first post in my first blog. *sniff* Ahh.. that new blog smell.
..Anyway, I suppose should take some time to tell everyone who's reading this (all 2 of you) what this blog is about.
Well, BulbaRun (AKA Project Littletree) is a top-down-shooter computer game I'm creating on Game Maker. It's a pokemon game, similar to Mystery Dungeon, only it will be free-roam with a (hopefully) large world, about Zelda-sized.
The goal of this game is to learn a little more about Game Maker, and get some good practice in so I can make better games in the future.
This blog will also act as a memo so I can log important things that I've learned or experienced through project littletree.
I will post screenshots and cool codes I've learned throughout this project, and eventually post the link to the game.

KTHXBAI.
