Kirby Versus Shy Guy, The Game *Updated*

Somebody had to do this sooner or later.

I've already started the Kirby Versus Shy Guy game. the engine is almost complete and the training level is finished. So far, Kirby and Shy Guy are programmed in, buy Yoshi isn't quite yet.
The game's storyline will be based on that of the comic. I've also made an animation of the first comic as the opening screen for the game. The demo will be coming soon, but for now, all I have is a screenshot.

Update: The fully completed battle stage. The battle stage is now pretty much complete, and contains an audience. This is the first battle with Moore here.

Frequently asked questions:


Is this game going to be based of Peardian's comic?

Yes it is. The game is going to try to follow the storyline of the comis as closely as possible, although it may be impossible at times. During those times, I must improvise, but I will try not to stray to far from the comic.

How is the game going to play?

The game will play much like Paper Mario. Colliding with an enemy in the overworld will bring you to the battle screen, where you and the enemy fight until one side is done.



And for the announcement: The demo WILL BE RELEASED BY THE NEW YEAR. Basically, four weeks tops.

Looks Cool

Thank you.

would be nice if Kriby had both feet on the ground.

I'll fix that. I just started yesterday.

Did you get permission from Peardian first?

It'd be wise to check.

Make screen size smaller, and to be honest. It looks bad, and is a bad idea.

It depends if his game is based on Peardian's Comic.

Come on, it IS based on Peardian's comic.

Even the graphics are the same!

true

...Wow.

I was waiting for this to happen.
So, Platformer, I'm guessing?
Though the KvsSG battles are in Paper Mario style. Are you going to incorporate those too?
And, how are you gonna handle General Guy? Pikmin style gameplay may take a while.
Anyway, this is moving along great. Good luck!

And,

I believe he said he was open to the idea of a fan-game in his comic's honor.

OH GOD

best ever adaption

Still

I'd like to see Peardian come down and say "I approve of this fangame" before writing it off.

Hey what where did he say this? If I had seen that earlier then I would have done this LONG ago. :/

No please. This doesn't look good; I'd rather have this Paper Mario style. Please... no platforming. It only insults the comic.

EDIT: A little harsh, but really. Try to stick with the comic's style.

I think he said it before, plenty of times. The only reason I didn't do it is because I was up to my head in another fangame.

I could do one but I'd like to do that Mario game and work on a Zelda fangame first.

And now someone's stepping up to do it so if others did it it'd earn its own fangame site.

That actually IS the comic's style

Kirby Adventure sprites + YI sprites + SMW background = KvsSG

Ok everybody, WOAH! Time out!

I already asked and this is the exact message. The quote is mine and the rest is his.:

Sure, you can if you want to. I'm actually more surprised you don't know where the backgrounds come from. <_<

1.) see above

2.) Super Mario World

3.) Edits of YI Shy-Guy

4.) I actually just ripped pictures of levels from Super Mario World and Yoshi's Island. Only the jungle throne and the shop's underground storage were put together using tiles from Yoshi's Island and Super Mario Bros. 3, respectively.




Now that that's over with, the game is an adventure/platformer. The game so far involves a platformer styled gameplay, but with adventure and rpg elements. It is a 2d side-scroller, but you go on quests. For example, after BG Bandit raids your fort, you go to a level where the idea is to collect a bunch of bricks within a time limit and build a fort out of them.

Elyk 19, I fixed the feet.

Omega, I did resize it. It looks practically the same as the comic now. The scaling and sprite sizes are the same, but you have a view about twice as wide and teice as high as in the comic.

Yes, he did ask me permission. :P


The only thing from the screen I suggest changing is make the sky blue, instead of yellow. ;D
