Chainsaw: New level/game type selection screen #197

Closed rmmccann closed 10 years ago

rmmccann commented 10 years ago

Instead of a floating dialog box, we should have a nicer level selection screen, more like the current iteration of ShipOdyssey. One idea is to have smaller versions of the logs with the name of the level/game type overlaying it. Clicking one of these will bring you to that level.

Also, we may want to change the terminology from "levels" to something else like "log type" since the game play does not change.

levels_mockup2 Design mockup for showing multiple logs for each level

Not bad. Except the double messages: not so good looking, so I would remove the back copy. And perhaps now is a good time to add in the background, and change the log ends to a lighter (off white) color.

rmmccann commented 10 years ago

Yeah, definitely. That was just a quick and dirty photoshop mockup to show the look of the logs. There will only be the front label in the final design.

here's what it now looks like in the game, with and without a brown backdrop. temp1 temp2

Looking good! I recommend we define "practice"

One more task: update look of logs in Levels screen to match new log colors in main screen.
