Mockups & ideas for future games

[rodot]

Your flappy birdo looks really nice, you're pretty good at pixel art! I hope you'll publish it soon

Thanks Rodo
The last version has been updated here.
Now that I'm done with this game, let's start a Frogger clone!

Really nice Jerom! Will soon give a try.

About frogger, there had been some discussions and mockups before.
I have done a vertical grey one too.
Here is the link, it may give you some ideas:

Thanx erico i didn't see this old topic!
There are some interesting mockups already on this...

What i have already done so far (using just rectangular blocks at the moment, but I'll use prettier sprites in the future)...

[erico]

Looks well spaced design wise.
I see you used the tinny font, I love that font.

keep it up!

[clement]

Marvelous, Jerom! I Learned some more games today
Mind if I could do a request for the Atari game Sprint 2? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprint_2)
My "Circuit Rush" game over in my mockup thread was originally trying to be that game, but I could'nt do it. (Note : Nobody made grey games when I made that )

Newbie question: What's the best way to create a mockup that's "zoomed in" (not 1:1)?

Use an image editor (or viewer) and scale the image up 200%-300% while disabling interpolation/smoothing/resize filters.
