Proper player sprites (no more piggies 🎉) for my #picotron #wizardofwor like game.

Started sound-effects too, which makes a huge difference to the feel!

Player 2 & firing with wall collisions in place for #picotron my #wizardofwor-like. Feels fun already, even though you can't do anything - maybe a bit of nostalgia at play!

Quick session on my #picotron #wizardofwor like game before work. Radar and invisible monsters! Certainly raises the tension!

Next, firing enemies or maybe player sprites - pigs look cute but not for this game 🤔

The highly chaotic "wizard of wor".

That's all until early Jan since I'm off on holiday for a week. Feels like I got the main bones in place for when I get back!

Any level can become a #pacman style level in my #picotron #wizardofwor.

Power-pills (or eggs) spawn in corners which looks like it makes things easy. But, all is not as it seems; I have an idea...

What is your game character or cover telling you?
Quote with lyrics:

"Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame full of desire
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher

Abra-abra-cadabra
I want to reach out and grab ya"

THORWOR (Wizard of Wor)
Pipe cleaner figure
Finished. I like the electric blue venom sac beneath the stinger

Pipe cleaner frame with acrylic paint, fun foam, and wooden eyes. Stands 2" (5.08 cm) high at the shoulder.

A pipe cleaner figure I built of a Thorwor, a monster from the 1980 video game WIZARD OF WOR. The Thorwor is (to my understanding of its pixelated form) is a red scorpion/reptile hybrid with six segmented legs, a large mouth, and a poison stinger. It has yellow antenna and giant eyes like those of a horsefly. A pipe cleaner figure I built of a Thorwor, a monster from the 1980 video game WIZARD OF WOR.

A Mothman and a Thorwor. Which is a scorpion/lizard hybrid from Wizard of Wor. Which is a videogame I fell in love with and inspired me to become an artist. Also a videogame that came out likely before your parents met.

Two pipe cleaner figures I am currently building. The first is a black featureless Mothman with pterodactyl-like wing fingers and a blue chest. The second is a Thorwor, a red monster with a reptilian head, arthropod legs, and tail stinger. Each stands 2" (5.08 cm) high. The Thorwor sprite
