Bullet Boy’s bad casing day è _ é !

This is really cool it really feels like a modern take on something Rareware would have made back in the day :D

I really enjoyed the strategy of having to go around collecting back all your shots to “reload” it’s a clever mechanic.

The music is really what sold me though, that tune is so good XD

You guys did great congrats !

Now that you say it, yeah, it really does have that style haha. It actually wasn’t intentional at all, Glad you enjoyed the mechanics and music, thank you so much!

Haha well the whole objects with cartoon eyes immediately made me think of Conker so i really thought it was an influence but hey, it doesn’t change the fact that the game is cool :p

I designed the enemies and have partial credit for bullet boy, and i think this is an example of convergent evolution. my inspirations were Clippy from Microsoft Word and traditional old timey animation, exaggerating the hands and feet by making them just the only thing there. Rare games i think similarly took very traditionalist cartoon inspirations so we ended up in the same design space, i take it as nothing but a complement c:

Hmm i see, didn’t immediately thought about clippy but yean i can totally see it XD

Also true that the old timey cartoons did seem to have a thing for putting eyes onto objects so you’re right that’s probably where Rare got this inspiration in the first place :p

and you should your designs are great ^^
