Its a puzzle platformer in the style of lost vikings. There are four playable sharks, each with their own abilities. They are also coloured differently, allowing them to move through certain walls and have the advantage against certain enemies.

Four sharks wake up in prison cells with little to no memory of how they got there. Also superpowers. SHENANIGANS ENSUE

omigosh it looks pretty awes. Looks like the second GBA kirby game, only with a shark rather than some bubblegum.

Not to mention with an epic style rather than a cartoon comedy.

Need any help in anything?

[[fish in space]]

we seem to be pretty well covered graphics-wise

[Lern]

...I was asking about anything, else, possibly?

[Kairos]

We're pretty much covered.

Most everything is done save programming.

Even then, we have a programmer. He's just lazy (like everyone else on our tame save gors how do we get anything done)

[Lern]

so you really are just building hype

hype built

[Kairos]

mission accomplished

[[fish in space]]

i am not lazy


seriously i have done almost all the graphics

[Kairos]

shut up you're lazy

[Plaz]

Why didn't you say it was a co-op combat platformer when you asked me, agh

agh. Alack, the ship has sailed. Looks good, you better finish.

[[fish in space]]

its cool plaz


for there may be sequels!!????!?!?!??!

[Lern]

waaaaaaaaaat
a sequel are may be possible?
You're not even done with the original!

[Plaz]

waaaaaaaaaat
a sequel are may be possible?
You're not even done with the original!
Divine zeal. Heavenly ambition. Immaculate vigor. Give me one theme, two genres and three days and you'll have a game concept you never before thought possible. Sharks or non. I'm claiming this as my new thing. I am the King in Green. I am Plaz, my will be done.

close curtain, end theatrics, shark week begins.

(You better finish this game)

[Kairos]

Yo, Novabusters (the group who is making this game (us)) now has A youtube (http://www.youtube.com/user/Novabustergames), a twitter (http://twitter.com/#!/Novabustergames) and a Vimeo but fuck Vimeo it hasn't sent me a conformation email yet.


We don't have much yet to show for Shark Week (or any of our games) to upload/post but feel free to subscribe/follow for regular updates.

Looking pretty cool!

You might want to consider more tile diversity for things like ground tiles though. I also think making the rocks a bit larger would look good too. You could also consider having a dedicated set of tiles to make up larger chunks of ground that float around, instead of reusing the normal ones (IE, instead of a four by four block of 16x16 tiles made up of the ones for the main ground, make a 64x64 tile of something that looks a bit cleaner).

more shit coming soon

[Lern]

Any chance for a larger resolution version? XD

[Kairos]

Hey guys!

First off, the game's name has changed from Shark Week to Sharkaiger. But you'd know this if you followed the Novabuster twitter. Why aren't you?

Secondly, we're looking for a background artist! If you're interested, hit meup on Skype or MSN. Nevermind we have one.

Any chance for a larger resolution version? XD
You can make one with a vectorizer, you'd have to photoshop the gradient, but other than that it is possible to make one.

EDIT: Didn't notice the date. Also, why the name change?
