Pink Elephants are Go

Posted by Kester

A game, about Dumbo, and the Pink Elephants on Parade.

Play

It’s a .swf, so it plays online, though it can be downloaded by right-click save as on the ‘download’ button at the side. Source can be provided if anyone wants it, which I doubt.

I had to finish off by just cutting off the level, because things mysteriously stopped working after the amount playable. Oh well, I then built the scoring system around what’s there, so you’ll recieve a ‘grade’ depending on how completely you puffed away the pink elephants.

It’s simple, but it’s also complete with sound, menus, art, and enough gameplay to classify as a ‘game’ rather than a demo. No unicorns or turnips, sadly.

No unicorns as yet

No unicorns currently, but it’s going well. It’s about the Pink Elephants on Parade scene in Dumbo; Dumbo shoots peanuts out of his nose to make the pink elephants disappear.

The engine’s working fine, but I’m manually scripting where the elephants appear in the level, (as opposed to randomizing) which is going to be time consuming. Power ups are possible, and if I have leftover time then there may also be a boss; though I’m almost certainly not going to have that time.
