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"

What's new! The latest Upgrades to Level 01

What's New!


There was supposed to be a load bar added today but for some reason it not working as I'd hoped so again I apologize for what might be a bit of a wait while the game load. Hopefully it won't take too long. I'll keep working at trying to find out why the web player is not using my load screen that I made. I most likely have something coded wrong in it or the script not on the right object. I'm fuzzy on how the whole load bar stuff is supposed to work. But for those that are patient here is a run down on some of the cool stuff added.
Danger signs: "Deadly Toxic Mud Bogs" are now marked by signs to warn players just how dangerous they are to "Bud the Spud." One step in these and it's "Mashed potato for "Bud the Spud."
Fire Flies: Keep a lookout for these little helpers as they will provide clues as to either where to go or safe places to jump from. "Bud the Spud" will get lots of helpful hints from clusters of brightly lighted Fire Flies scattered about the various game levels.
Healthy Potato Leaf: Pick up these sparkling green Potato Leafs to gain 25 points to Bud's existing health. They will sure come in handy if he has taken damage from either miss timed jumps on Worms or from worm attacks.
Extra Life Heart: Although not technically new, players will now find that the heart has been moved from the broken pipe the deadly third mud bog and placed inside of a new broken pipe located in the middle left of that 3rd mud bog.
