Hey guys, I was hoping we could brainstorm a little on an easteregg I want to include in a certain project Im working on (soon to put in the hand of thousands of cable employees).
The idea is to have a monkey and banana throwing. Thats about all that’s required. What the game would entail and how its set up/what is done/can do etc etc etc, Id hope we could discuss here =)
Nothing too complex. I’d like to be able to complete it within an hour or two.
So far, what Im thinking is a monkey running around in the foreground of a beach with a palm tree (or a banana tree rather) where you in first person view with a crosshairs get to throw bananas at him. Whatdaya think?
How about the monkeys run upto you (can easily be done with sen’s awesome knowledge about 3D in Flash) to attack you but you need to distract them by throwing banana’s from the tree standing next to you at them ?
Or how about just the classic “what’s it called”…rrmmm you know there are two monkeys, one on the left and the other on the right and they both are on root tops. They have explosive bananas that they have to throw to blow the other one up. Your need to get the angle right and the speed to hit the other monkey.
That’s the game I thought of first when I read sen post
Senocular said ‘a monkey and banana throwing’ plus, as it’s for a corporate type of audience I like the briefcase idea. And he’s only got an hour or so, so how about a monkey in a suit, with a briefcase. You’ve got bananas, which you chuck at him (While he does some crazy jumps etc). He randomly ‘blocks’ by putting his briefcase infront of his face, and you score by hitting him with the bananas.
Just have a simple highscore table across the network, and do it against the clock. 9 times out of 10 it’ll become the office competition craze…
