With the reboot of CaDan comes a request for characters to star in the official rebuild. A total of eight playable characters is possible in the selection screen, though I'm going to have to slim it down to three if I can't get anyone to provide stuff. I'm also requesting bosses and their information, of which there will be 6 main bosses and 6 mini bosses. Though I don't have the sprites with me, I'm also requesting a 32x32 portrait sprite and mask (I'll fill in the details if you don't want to do that part), and a corresponding 8x8 game play sprite.

So far, I have three player characters. One serious and two jokes.

1. DevBlock - The unfortunate test character in almost every one of my games. First featured in Fishy, and often mistaken for a puzzle piece from another unrelated game, he gets thrown into the CaDan universe, where he's totally clueless, as usual. His script tells him to be annoyed at everyone and fight anyone for any reason, so that there will be conflict, even if unjustified. The first boss tells him this right then and there.

2. Netham45 (pre-lobsterification) - Completely unaware of the new environment. Won't move unless fully focused with the task at hand, and tends to give everything he's got once that focus is there. Strange things are flying at him, so his natural response is to blast 'em out of the sky. Takes the form of a spork.

3. Netham45 (post-lobsterification) - The future of Netham45, his temperament has changed dramatically after becoming a blue lobster and becoming the proud owner of his own FISHTANK CITY. The enemies all claim that he owes them payments on some sort of mortgage that doesn't exist. This Netham wants these guys to "Produce the Note" and prove once and for all that these guys are frauds and they have absolutely no claim to his city / 50-foot-tall-giant-fighting-robot. Lobster-y type attacks ensure the enemy's demise.

So far, I have one boss character:

1. 404 Boss Not Found - The placeholder boss for the series. A repeat occurrence until all boss and miniboss slots are filled. Each time it appears, it'll let the players in on some of the details about the environment all the player characters are trapped in, and discuss the fact that they NEED to fight to please the gods of CaDan. Always have flimsy as hell excuses for fighting, but at least they're more real than any other excuse other bosses can come up with. They ought to be.

So, let's get creative here. I understand that Geekboy has already gathered a bit of information for his own edition of CaDan. I'm not trying to compete with that, but I do have permission from him to copy over some assets. What I want is verification that the appropriate owner of those assets provide that permission as well.

Uh. Wow. That was a little long.

Greyscale or monochrome?

They need to be monochrome ^_^

I hope ticalc visitors won't flag the game for doing nazi promotion, though...

Long as its shoved some where in the depths of the bullet hell it should be ok

You mean, some place in the game where it's almost a guarantee that any normal ticalc reviewer would never be able to reach? Like the Extra stage?

i don't even remember if i posted any, but if i did, you are free to use them

The Iron Vixen -- a very small and quick enemy that can evade bullets with ease, but isn't able to shoot many of its own.

that balrog boss sprite i made is fair game, and i'll see if i can whip up something more space ship-like.
