Dummy Duck
Dummy Duck is 20-ish years old! Well, the character hasn't aged much, but he was created about 20 years ago. This website is like a junk drawer for all the random Dummy-related nicknacks I've got lying around.

Walk animation
Here's a little walk animation I made. I drew the grid in the background to match up with the Game-Maker grid. Then I added a walk cycle template onto it, and scaled it down to the proper size. I busted out the handy dandy Wacom tablet (which I'm really enjoying using) and drew Dummy to fit onto it. I'm purposely going with the color palette from the NES, to try to mimic the feel of the old Nintendo games. I borrowed the idea from Aderack from the Game-Maker Archives, who sent me a preview of a game he's working on with that same color palette. It's amazing how the right color palette can have such a big impact on how the game feels.

Is this the title screen to the new Dummy game!?
Maybe! Fun Fact: This image was created with the magic of a Wacom Tablet! I got a used one a long time ago, and finally got the hang of how to use it. And it's pretty rad!

Game concept art
Hi, I threw together this dumb picture based on the new Dummy game that I may or may not ever really make. I'm not sure if it's technically part 6 or 7. Y'see... Dummy Duck 1-5 were all done with RSD Game-Maker. But... Dummy Duck 6 was a little game made in Flash. Well... so... Does it count since it wasn't really a Game-Maker game? Well... Yeah, I think so. So... I guess that means that the new game is going to be part 7. And when I think of part 7 of a game, it just makes me think of Final Fantasy VII. So, I threw this little picture together for DDVII inspired by FFVII. So... yeah. There's that. But then, if I call it DD 7 it reminds me of Didi Seven. "What a mess!"

New Dummy Duck game!
Crazy as it may sound, I'm actually working on a new Dummy Duck game. What is it going to be like? I dunno. I'll try to update this site with info.
