About Bud the Spud

"Bud the Spud" is a potato and unlike other potatos Bud is perfectly happy to remain a potato, he has no intention of becomming "Mashed Potato, French Fries, potato Chips" or anything else that takes away from his being just a plain ordinary potato.

one day Bud discovers that the "Rotten Potato" is selling off his fellow potato people to the fast food conglomorates in a mass genocide of his own people. Now this is enough to piss off any self respecting potato. And so begins Bud's adventure to find and stop the "Rotten Potato" from this dastardy most dispicable act of genocide. Bud will have no easy task as he will have many obstacles along the way, deadly toxic mud bogs to cross, attacking Worms, Potato Beetles, rogue toy Robots, food processing machines, Hibachi BB Q's and so much more.

Thus begins the concept for my indie game development project "Bud the Spud"

Crossing The Deadly Mud Bogs

Level one of my Bud The Spud game is very close to completion... just adding some sounds and some scenic details.
Here we see Bud the Spud way up top of his underground world after collecting the two keys needed to open the door to the above ground level (Yet to be made... that's next)
I just have to work out his "Bog Death" so as when Bud jumps or falls into a mud bog he plays a drowning animation and then dies. Also need to add a nice toxic looking partical effect for bog gas to cover the bog muddy water surface.
But yeah, the basic game mechanics are in place,
  • Worms can attack him if he's within range
  • He can kill worms by jumping on them and they die with a nice splat (Could be better with decals need to look into that)
  • He can pick up Fertilizer Pellets
  • He can collect keys to unlock exit doors to next game level
