Game Concept

My game is centered around the genetically modified main character Pig Fingers, and his journey to find his home and family. After years of GM testing on Pig Fingers, he manages to escape the facility and must fight for his life to get back to his home on the farm. Making use of his new fingers he must fight the professors who had caged him and their mutated minions in order to save himself.

My game will be generally side scrolling action based, you will control Pig Fingers and have such actions as walking, jumping, kicking and crouching. The style will be quite colourful and quite a childish design, i want this to contrast with the creepy mutant theme of the game.

Super Paper Mario

This game pays homage to the original Super Mario series, using the original 2D side-scrolling animations that made the series famous. It is not what it seems though, as the game changes from 2D to 3D, from platform to RPG. The reason i have chosen this game to look at is because i have always been a fan of the environment of the Mario games, the colourful abstract forms, this game works from that idea and makes it crisper, and then completely mixes it up and twists the game to merge from 2D to 3D, but keeping thestyle the same.
