Enjoy! 

 I do not have oldmanclayton.com registered yet. I will once I feel like dishing out $20 for freewebs' domain services.

Be sure to download the custom platform comparing demo, and tell me if you like it! http://www.tcentertainment.webs.com/BOMlevelcompare.zip
I'm going to upload a full demo soon.

New platform movement!

Great news! I finally ripped out the old BOM movement and stuck a custom one in! This was I think the biggest job I've ever undertaken.  MANY MANY bugs popped up, and I'm happy to say most of them have been resolved.  Not only will this hopefully make the game more enjoyable, but I also managed to add a few things. BOM now automatically jumps back up after Belly Flopping, and I added dust when he runs. FlipLip has drawn A TON more graphics, and you can see barely a few in the screenshots. (That's bad grammar, but who cares.) I'm very pleased with the progress I made today, it's not everyday almost everything goes off without a hitch.  (I have found that since I got high-speed internet I use more and more emoticons.) An excerpt from the BOM help file: (there were about seven times as many bugs that I fixed. Not joking. I just have bad memory. So I'm extra glad I managed to remember most of the bugs to fix, even though I didn't remember afterwards what I fixed. I cannot stress how many bugs there were and how many I ironed out. If you can't tell, I'm very proud of myself.)

-NEW CUSTOM MOVEMENT CREATED (This was such a huge mess I honestly think it was the biggest job I've ever had. :P)
 Bugs fixed that arose from custom movement:
 -BOM floated
 -Would not be hurt by enemies if moving while hit
 -could not belly pooge while moving without freezing
 -Mushrooms were WAY off
 -BOM will now automatically jump again after Belly Flop!! YAY!
 -
-Smoke from running added

You see I left an extra little dash for when I remember others. There were LOTS. Anyway, a few screenies... I redid the Balding Overweight Man title words, they look more goldy. Fliplip drew some new graphics. Give me your opinions! There are a couple new buildings and the new grass in view... and a screenshot from the ending cutscene. The benches still need redone, but the fire hydrants and car have been redone. I'll put pictures of them as soon as I can! Enjoy!

Balding Overweight Man Demo!

Here's a link to the newest BOM demo (had to use deviantart because my site's being annoying.): http://www.deviantart.com/download/84456542/Balding_Overweight_Man_by_oldmanclayton.zip

Remember, some of the graphics are being redone (scroll down) and I already have a better health countdown engine. Next is more redone graphics and a new custom platforming movement for BOM. More updates later!

Graphics update!

Got a few concept graphics. I need your opinion! On the right is the old street and grass. The other one is the new street and some concept grass. The left burger is the old one, the new one is on the right. Left light post is new one, right is old one. Stars are new. This is just the beginning of all of the planned redo's. The bench will be redone... More buildings added... and I plan to have side-streets and buildings in the background instead of just nothing. It will change the angle of the graphics, but it should look great. Give me your opinions!
