My first iMasterpiece

http://www.ambientdesign.com/artrage.html

ArtRage is similar to MS Paint, but looks artier. Its real easy too.
 
This are some of the characters I made for a few different games I made for on my Mac Plus (and later Mac LC) when I was 11, 12 & 13.

I used a adventure game creator called World Builder. It's parent company sadly went out of business. World Builder allowed you to create scenes, monsters and some code. It took up only 61K and had a drawing program similar to MacPaint.

Keep in mind these aren't meant to be works of art, just odd & amusing characters by a bored young boy. :D

---------------------

This is the first character I ever made. Submited only for amusment value.

WB01mugger.gif


I originally called him "pickpocket" but later realized that was pretty stupid considering he was attacking you (pickpockets don't attack). I renamed him "mugger".

WB02Magician.gif

Equally as crappy (perhaps more so) was the Magicician. He at least could cast a spell (note in World Builder there were no "sleep" or "stun" spells or anything cool like that really, spells were similar to attacks, they just caused damage).

WB03Spook.gif

That's supposed to be a chain he's holding. :crazyeye:

WB04Knight.gif

A knight. :)

WB05CrazedGrape.gif


A "crazed grape". Again :crazyeye:

More coming (don't worry they get better... slightly).
 
WB06Spaz.gif

A "spaz" (not politically correct these days I suppose)

WB07Demon.gif

A demon. One of my cooler characters. He was actually an "object" until you rejected his offer (he was demanding tribute even in the days before Civ :D) then he became a monster and fought you.


WB08KungFuMaster.gif

The kung fu master was also an item at first. He tells you to help him find his sword (a very powerful one) out in the woods behind his cabin. When you give him the sword he attacks you with it! Then when you defeat him you got it back. Of course, you could have just kept the sword and not fought him, I should've given him some essential item. :undecide:

WB09SumoMan.gif

No adventure is complete without a "village sumo wrestler" that you must face. :D
 
WB10DrSpazcoB4.gif


"Dr. Spazco" was a boss in one of my games. I think he had a monster making machine or something which he used to flood every room of his castle with an enemy (the monsters were all almost as crappy as the "mugger" and "spook" so I did not include them.

He looks like kind of a wimp but then he drinks his potion and...

WB11DrSpazcoAfter.gif


If only CellTech could get a hold of that formula! :D

This is a poster I made for my room (with some of my cooler characters) and printed out on my Image Writer II (and added in print - "Knock before entering").

And yeah, "Tony" is supposed to be me. :o Fortunatly I never started smoking (or attacking people with bats).

WB12KnockBeforeEntering.gif


Here's a second poster I made. Note, the first robot is the only character I didn't create (he was a "sample" World Builder character). I did improve him, into the 2nd robot though.

WB13Poster2.gif


When I was 13 I went away to school. To pass the time & ease homesickness I characatured many of my fellow dormmates & put them in a game. Here are some of the less deroatory ones.

WB20Greg.gif


A French dude named Greg. He usually feigned the "don't give a damn" attitude. He was a decent fellow though, and a formidable Risk player.

WB21Josh.gif


A somewhat nutzo shorter fellow who claimed his father owned the San Pelligrino water company.

WB22Micah.gif


This kid named Micah. He was from Scandanavia somewhere. He was an alright guy. He played hockey, hence the stick he's using as a weapon.

WB23Craig.gif


This kid with braces from Missorui, he had an ugly green shirt with the number seven on it. He was one of the few kids in the dorm my age (most were 14) and also a decent fellow.
 
How did MjM get around the ten character limit with an empty post? Is he using invisifont?
 
There was a picture there, (check the HTML) but it looks like he deleted the picture - though that makes me wonder why there isn't a red X instead.
