Delux Cards and Final

Delux Cards -- (Not Final Project Idea)

Taking the original card idea and developing it further, the Delux cards emply the use of the royal card house which acts out on the stage depending on where the user places them according to hit points. Idle animations and various attack animations allow the characters to interact when the user drops them onto the stage.

The Cards are King, Queen, Jack, and Joker -- each preform a different animation when they are paired on the stage.

Final Story Board -- (Final Project Idea)

A further developing of the ideas created in the early project to create several flash drawings. The Slave Sale comic will be an interactive comic strip that is linear in nature; however, allows the user to make actions happen within the panels, drag and drop the characters to different panels, and progress the story either through using the interface or actually moving the characters around.

The Project has four major chapters, each can be instantly visited via the interface.

- Introduction: During this phase the user can progress the story by clicking and selecting panels. The user can activate other actions within the present panel of the story by clicking on it.

- Travel: User can drag and drop characters to different locations to progress the story.

- Sale: User can attempt to make a selection for the main character, but will of course be forced to pick the right one in the end.

- Conclusion: Ending scene which allows the user to remove objects from the scene to continue it, such as removing the slave's collar from around his neck.
