Project Information
The Great Beano Cake Off is a wave defense type game which parodies the Great British Bake Off television show. The player must fend off an assortment of angry, (but tasty) baked goods and avoid hitting Noel at all costs. Surviving long enough will see the player facing the gingerbread commander.
For the Great Beano Cake Off, I was mostly concerned with creating the artist elements and tweaking the javascript for gameplay changes. Each enemy required a full walk/run animation, alongside a death animation, with anywhere from 7 to 24 frames of animation required per spritesheet. Set dressing elements like the characters in the background were also animated, on top of the static re-imagining of the Bake-Off tent in Beano style. A variety of UI elements were made to fit the theme of a kitchen/baking styled game with clean tablecloth motif. UI elements ranged from buttons to menus.
