Well I got up early for no reason because I crashed at 11 am and woke up at 4 pm. Been working on code since then trying to get the main part of the game right. Hope this starts coming together soon. I will show a video as soon as its done.
Not too much art got done today, was busy working on the gameplay. But here is a pirate ship wheel thing I will use for the menu and the fishbowl. I think I might add more to the fish bowl.
Here is a little bit more on the scene, I added a texture to the coral ground thing and a circular wooden platform for the obstacles. again, not much art done today. Will show some gameplay tomorrow hopefully with art in it.

What I will have is like a hook hanging down. If you hit the hook, it hooks you and you go up and die. But I won't show the whole die part because this is supposed to be a friendly family game! aha.
Been working on the gameplay all day and whipped this up the last 5 minutes. This is what I will use for the first 2 or 3 levels for instructions to kinda guide you through.
at the moment I am adding more shading and things like that to it to give it more of a real feel.
Ok I just added a part to the story. Every nice story needs a bad guy! So your on a cruise ship, your friends want you back in the ocean, and your job is to get there. but this guy has made it hard for you to get there as he doesn't want you to be able to go to the ocean. He follows you through out the story. I traced a stock image and this is what I got. Let me know what you think.
Well today is probably a relax day because I haven't really done anything yet. I might make the gameplay a bit smoother before I show it around and may make a few more images but today is like a day off for me. What does everyone think so far?
Well today I was having some bug problems with the code and got a new idea. Still same game concept and art, but a new way to get the fish to the ocean. I will be trying to get it working today and see how it goes. if not I will go back to my other idea.
Right now I am working on the story line "comics" at the beginning of the game. So far I made this port hole to explain that the fish wants out of the ocean. This part isn't done but its where I am at.
Well its been a bit slow the past few days but the new gameplay idea is almost there! Probably will get it done tomorrow and show everyone. Then after that its to making the menu, levels, and finishing art. woo!
