The Dream Enemies?

I am making a game about a kid's nightmare, that he enters into the dream to make his dream peaceful again. It will be "NES" style, so NES style movement tutorials would be helpful, AND I need to think of some enemies. Nothing complex, because the graphics MUST be 8-bit style, and I just want ideas. Some ideas I came up with were:

Zombies (they try to "kill" you)
Bats (They flap wings at you)
Vultures (they try to eat you)
Blobs (try to suffocate you. Happy, eh?)

Got suggestions? Also, I need some 8-bit music. MUST BE CUSTOM.


Thank you, and good bye.

Re: The Dream Enemies?

How about roots that pop up as traps and choke the player, and the only way to get rid of it is to use a special knife item to cut it up?

Like eventually in the game you must find the knife, then you kill it to get past it?

Re: The Dream Enemies?

Yup. Maybe it could be a boss instead.  The boss could be a zombie tree that shoots roots from the ground.  The player must cut all the roots, and when that happens, the tree gets tired and must recharge. That gives the player a chance to attack the tree. Then, the tree regains energy and repeats the cycle.

Re: The Dream Enemies?

Meanwhile, I want some ideas for the title of the game other than "The Dream".

Re: The Dream Enemies?

Living the Nightmare? That could be the title. Also, I'm glad that I helped you. When's this game coming out? Also, can I work on it to?

Re: The Dream Enemies?

I can work on the sprites, but you need to do the programming.  I'll start working on the enemies now.

Umm...you need to be part of CR. But because you are so helpful, you are hired automatically! Just ask to post a CR project so i can look over it.

Classics Revealed Co. want to join? I just would like you to draw the roots, and I'll edit it a little. It should come out in a little over a month. It is my 3rd or 4th scroller. I made it basic scrolling though.

Thanks! When I finish with the sprite, do I put it in a scratch project and put it in the gallery?

Reminds me of Old Man Willow from the Fellowship of the Ring videogame...

Re: The Dream Enemies?

Or maybe it could be called "Enter The 'Mare" or "Enter the Dream".

Re: The Dream Enemies?

I finished the roots yesterday, I'll upload it now. Instead of grabbing the player, they wrap around him like a boa constrictor.

EDIT: It's here! Go to my profile to see it.

Re: The Dream Enemies?

Oh. I'm trying to find some 8 bit thunder effects, but that's not working. It looks like I'll have to make it myself.
