Hello,
As a thank-you to the community here for helping me get the game running again on a modern PC, I'll be posting some images from the development of the game.
I'll start at the very beginning: the pitch! The following images were created as we were pitching the game to LEGO Media. The original concept was pretty clear from the beginning: it was LOCO meets Micro Machines. We iterated on these images as you'll see below.
The original name and logo we whipped up for the pitch. The game kept the name for much of the development period.
Probably the very first mockup. Here we are just exploring the view angle, car size on screen, what kind of information to show on screen, that sort of thing.
UI Mockups
Some vehicle ideas. The original pitch included quite a bit of customization to the car - the player would be able to tweak springs, rubber bands, tyres, etc. for optimum car performance.
Character profiles - we all loved the punk guy from LOCO.
Early ideas demonstrating the in-car camera view.
First sketch for the workshop.
More to come!
