SPRH a 'lil History

Some of you may be wondering, " Where in the heck did these guys come up with Sparkle Panda Rainbow Hunter?"

 Well, here's a bit of the History of Sparkle Panda Rainbow Hunter. 

 It all started with a comic.  And that comic started with a couple.  A couple of jokesters who enjoyed having morning coffee together and making one another laugh. At some point we thought it would be funny to create a comic to showcase our creativity. So we needed a character with which  we could tell the world some of our short jokes. We brainstormed and came up with RUDE PANDA, a super cute Panda  who tells it like it is and sometimes comes off very rude! "She's cute, but she is RUDE!" RUDE PANDA skates and does graffiti of course. She's also a DJ, Bot Maker and cool car enthusiast as well.

RUDE PANDA comes across an old movie poster in an alleyway one day while walking around town with her best friend, Kenny the Turtle.

 That's as far as we got with the idea until the guys at NESMaker announced the second BYTE-OFF 2020 competition.  We had already joked about how it would be funny to have our RUDE PANDA character in a video game, so we jumped at the chance to enter something. I had attempted to make a game once before with NESMaker but quickly got frustrated with my limited time to commit to learning and optimizing the tool.

I decided to put the time in and learn how to use the tool while creating a demo with our RUDE PANDA as the main hero!! But what is this game and what will it be called?!? That's when we remembered the RUDE PANDA comic about the ridiculous, fluffy Hollywood Box Office Smash Hit, SPARKLE PANDA RAINBOW HUNTER ! We thought wouldn't that be a great name for an 8-bit NES game?!? YES ! ! So we had the name but what's it all about?? 

 We felt the world around us gripped in fear and doubt. We felt hate growing inside of people.  And we felt we could do something about it.

But how to restore laughter and LOVE to a world shrouded in fear and hatred?  We elected SPARKLE PANDA RAINBOW HUNTER to do the job!!  SHE can help us defeat the BAD MOODS who have taken over and restore the world of LOVE and FRIENDSHIP. 

SPARKLE PANDA  RAINBOW HUNTER has the POWER to BLAST these BAD MOODS and bring back RAINBOWS.

So we ran with it and the ideas kept flowing in! We had a concept and a hero! So on to the next step...?? Who are these BAD MOODS that Sparkle Panda needs to defeat?? and how does she do it?? 

Thanks for checking this out!! I want to post more like this about the development of the Sparkle Panda Rainbow Hunter game. Let me know if you enjoyed this and tell me some of your process !! Thanks.
