Hello! ^^

I'm still very much at work on my TaleSpin game, i'll soon post a video of a shoot'em up demo level ^^
I have written most of the game plot, so now i may begin the "real" work on the game soon!

In this topic, i'll try to ask questions to the fans now and then.

Here's my first one :

- How should "extra points" be displayed in the game? Let me explain : there will be things to collect in the game : items of course (health, lives...), money (obviously!), and also extra points. These extras will unlock bonuses in the game menu, so as to access artworks, musics, bonus levels, etc...

What could be fun? For now i'm thinking about a basic blue circle, but maybe that's too basic...

I think that the extra points can be in shape of yellow triangle

Yellow triangle? Mmm...that makes me think, maybe some flying badge would be nice?

What do you think? ^^

That'd be awesome if you use some of these ones...

My thought is maybe an orange or green star.

Ok! I think I'll go with a badge (the upper-left one)

I have another question. I'd like to add money to the shoot'em up levels, but would it be a problem for you if the money was "flying"? (in the air) I mean, it's not very realistic, but at the same time i don't really have any good idea (unless I make pennies with little wings? could be funny ^^)
