Concept 2: Weapon/tool


I'm not very talkative for the time being, I'm aware, but that is because of the very hectic days I'm having; trying to work as much as possible while still maintaining somewhat of a social life (to the degree which this course allows me to, in other words: not a lot). Anyways, what I've uploaded this time is a weapon/tool concept, with its description.

(I wrote this in English just so everyone can understand why there's been fewer updates lately, although the non-norwegian audience is fairly limited - should someone outside our borders be interested though, please tell me if you want me to continue writing in English for better understanding what everything's about)

Bean-Jack 3000
The Bean-Jack 3000™ is the ultimate gardening device for every need. Why strain your body so much when you can just use our Bean-Jack 3000™ to make your garden look even sharper than before. Combine our top-of-the-line seed spreading-device with the new technology behind InstantSeeds™ and your garden will be ready to show of its glory in no time.

Bean-Jack 3000™ and InstantSeeds™ are property of Your Garden Society inc. Use of products outside Your Garden Society inc. in combination with Bean-Jack 3000™ is not recommended and can in fact result in broken knees or other potentially lethal injuries.


Ammunition
Bean-Jack 3000™ fires a wide variety of seeds with different effects accordingly. Seeds can be found in quality dirt and have to be dug up with a garden shovel. When gathered, the seeds are put in containers specifying which type it is and in these are a sticky goo that will make the seeds stick to all organic surfaces. Your garden gloves have been made so that a "sticky accident" will not occur.

Stalk Seeds: Medium fire rate, but if too many are fired in a small space it will become a dudd since it won’t settle in occupied “soil”. Does heavy damage. Stalks can be climbed, but will only last for a short period of time.

Thorn Bush Seeds: Burrows into any target it hits and creates a bush of thorns that does light damage and cause a knock-back effect. Has a fast fire rate, and can be used to create blockades because of its high population rate, meaning it requires less space to grow.

Man Eater Seeds: Eats any human-size or smaller enemies (but only one enemy is eater per plant). Very slow fire rate because of seed size and requires a lot of space to grow.

Cone Shot: Cones are carried seperated from the other seeds in a special container because of the size. Also, because of this, they have to be thrown and not shot, making for a slow rate of fire. When sprayed with water it will burst out in vines that will penetrate any living thing within it's sphere of effect (5 meters).

Water: Water is probably the most important ammunition for this device. Every seed is set off by water and you can also use water to fill up enemies, turning them into a water-wrecking ball that you can push down hillsides and hit unsuspecting enemies. Water is automatically recovered by absorbing humidity, near water sources the recovery rate is increased.

Drawbacks
Although the Bean-Jack 3000™ is a very powerful tool, it has one drawback, it needs some sort of organic surface to grow out from. Having said that, it is not so picky about what kind of organic surface that is. Everything from dirt and trees to even humans, but remember that everything you create with has the potential to kill you as well, should you be so unlucky to, for instance, hit someone rushing towards you with a stalk seed.

Zombie og andre ting


Mye gøy som foregår på skolen for tiden, vi er nå midt i en weapon/gameplay concept oppgave, som jeg har det veldig gøy med. Jeg kommer til å laste opp bildet av det ferdige konseptet, men får nå får de som måtte lese dette nøye dere med en hyggelig mann jeg tegnet her forleden.
