It just has to be done, that's all. SuperWu 3D - the game

cool, I think I may try one as well.

here’s my attempt, you got me beat on the polys though ( 354 for me ), and i think i prefer the look of yours too, with the lower hood.

Yeah, for my idea, I was thinking about the more “heroic” looking wu-man. The game I had in mind was a bit darker and more serious (more like a batman type of thing). Anyway, its running title in my head is “Wu-Man: Battle for the Mojo”. Basically, Sago Baby or Sagor uses some type of mojo stealing device to steal Super Wu’s mojo and split it amongst his forum henchmen. Wu has to advance through the levels and face the bosses to regain his mojo and ultimately face Sago. As a twist, I was thinking of a romantic subplot involving Betty (something about Sago stealing her from Wu and brainwashing her into his minion “Nurse Betty” and an interesting final development).

Wu-man’s main method of combat would be his secret martial arts “Wu-Man Fu” and his massive ego. Ego boosts would also serve as defense, increasing his resistence to certain attacks and causing others to be absorbed to restore health.

Well, that’s basically what I was thinking. You can take it or leave it.

Edit: Modron, I just saw the last weekend challenge, and it looks like you’ve been thinking along exactly the same lines. Strange that the same storyline came to my mind a few weeks back after listening to your Super-Wu theme song…

Good to see a team project, even though I think this is making fun of someone that actually posted on Blender, or am I wrong about that? The whole thing has kind of a dog pack feel to it.

I don’t think it’s a problem. Wu and Sago actually enjoy the whole thing. Wu has even changed his forum name to “Super Wu-Man” and made one of Sago’s Super Wu drawings his avatar.

What the hell? A bit too much time on your hands? I guess as long y’all stay true to the essence of Wu-Man I’m cool with it.

Yeah, I said Wu-Man… that’s how it started, damnit. It was the joke when I called him that the first times… Wu-Man. I don’t care about the ‘super’, even though I wouldn’t use it… it’s more like an internal disagreement: the puppetmaster wants to call the puppet Wu-Man, but the puppet wants to be called Super Wu-Man… whatever. Don’t care about that. But don’t, I repeat, DON’T forget the ‘Man’ behind the ‘Wu’… haha, that sounded gay

same goes for the goaty and the big teeth… don’t… forget.

And let’s wait what the puppet has to say about it, cause it seems he has an opinion too.

Btw, some inspiration perhaps? about using textures

Oh, that’s good. I just barely took a look at one of the threads, guess I got the wrong idea. as long as the guy is into it. I’d offer to help but I’m doing one major project and one smaller project.

I can help with concept art, if needed.

If you want a darker story, I already drew a less cartoony version on the previous page:

It could look better, but I could start working on a bit “darker” version of the character. Hope to post again today.

I had a couple of ideas, 1) a carnival where the objective is to win prizes, with maybe bumper cars, shooting gallery, whatever we could work out, and the other idea 2) a spaceship game where you have to go from station to station, clearing out infestations of hostile aliens and/or robots, and upgrading your spaceship as you go.

Cool. I have a possible spaceship…

It’s a bit… simple, but I just wanted to know what a possible ship could be…

You guys (modellers) could at least use the shape.

nice design, I like it. I was just playing with some bumper cars I made. The space shooter idea is probably better than the carnival idea though.

Deleted by user.

Ok, here’s my idea so far:
Super Wu Man flys from space station to space station, fending off slug aliens along the way, and getting upgrades. At the last station, he gets out of the spaceship, and makes his way through the station to where he has to fight either the slug lord, or maybe a giant slug, in order to free betty ( a puzzle maybe ). Also we should have a training level at the beginning, and cut scenes for every level. Also, if anyone thinks of anything really funny, be sure to mention something, because this game should definately be funny.

Here’s the first space station, I think they should all be different.

uncyclomatic, i did a variation on your spaceship design, basically turned it upside down. I think I’ll make a better texture for it though, this one is a bit plain.

Cool, Modron.

The story behind the picture:

After Sago-baby steals his mojo-power, Wu-man finds an empty diaper…

Sago was turned into the adult, not-so-giant mad scientist…(in the “How to draw Sago” thread) using Wu-man’s mojo…(possibly)

I will work on concept for that.

Hey, if any of you modellers want me to make some “more model-friendly” pics (front, side views) let me know.

EDIT: (Rats, forgot that Sago was a GIANT baby, and needs a GIANT diaper)

If we can get more people working on this, we can make a list of jobs for everyone to do…

I may try my hand at making a model… anything special? i.e. poly count, etc?

(Oh, and how do you like the Wu-man above? Better? This one has no cape)

i like this version, but he should probably be orange and blue, since those are the blender colors. you may wish to try making some weapons for his spaceship, ( which i just retextured )

Changed the color.
