Bad Dudes 2 looking for sprite artists

Post by mechapop »

So it's just been announced that Bad Dudes 2 has lost its main pixel artist today( http://knucklebomb.wordpress.com/2012/10/09/next-step/ )
as I've been recently following the development of it. Essentially a small start up indie game house called Pinstripe Games gained the IP and publishing
rights for Bad Dudes, which was snagged from G Mobile when they bought the entire Data East catalog a few years ago. Pretty much it's the ultimate
idea that I'm surprised not too many have thought of: fan gamers actually gaining the rights to make an official sequel or remake

I actually was a huge fan of Bad Dudes, despite it's rather short, lack of replayableness. It was just so wholly...well, late 80's. When I recently got wind
of this, I immediately was flooded with ideas that would work for a proposed sequel(2d SNES/1993 era arcade graphics, the kind of facelift
Ninja Warriors got or something along those lines)

I can't seem to get a hold of the guys behind this, but it'd definitely be a dream to be somehow involved in this and I figured there were
at least a couple on here who know old school sprites pretty well

It looks good so far- but did you know that technos developers who made double dragon were originally a renegade offshoot of Data East? The infamous "ad" was payback...
May you live hapilly forever...

I did not know that! And I'm guessing you're referring to the Bad Dudes vs Double Dragon ad in magazines from 1989?

Correct! There's an excellent article and scan of the ad right here in the Dojo:

I still find the Americanised title of 'Bad Dudes' absolutely ridiculous. What's wrong with just 'DragonNinja' exactly?!
