Fire Bomb (requires level: 3): Hold (Y) to charge up a fire bomb. This bomb will do more damage in a larger radius and set nearby enemies on fire. Live Demonstration of Character and Toy Design for 'Skylanders' (video version). (Date Posted - 2016). GDCVault. As well as being able to use all of the Skylanders from the original two games, Skylanders: Swap Force introduces 32 brand new characters to play as. This new lineup is made up of 16 Swap Force Skylanders which break apart into two pieces that can be mixed-and-matched between them all and 16 new regular "core" Skylanders that won't have the swapping feature. Tech The major new gameplay addition is the ability to jump, which sounds trivial, but instantly opens up a range of new level design challenges. Suddenly the world becomes more interactive, more multi-layered, more interesting to explore. Every location in Swap Force is richly painted and extravagantly structured, filled with hidden alcoves, branching lanes and secret pathways that lead over, under and beside the main routes. From Wild West-themed canyons to misty, glistening tundras, the surreal landscapes are loaded with treasure chests, smashable objects, and collectable items. And like the best 3D platformers – like Super Mario 64 and Sonic Adventure – these floating islands are structured so that the player can often glimpse coming hazards or concealed treats from much earlier in the level, building suspense and bringing a sense of depth and complexity to each realm.

You even have to make choices about how your Skylander develops: do you work on one branching set of powers or another?

Skylanders: Swap Force started out as an original Vicarious Visions concept about how the developers could build on the greatness of Skylanders - playing together, building your collection, and the value of the collection itself. Also, what's fun from a toy standpoint: not just what's better on the video game side, but what makes for an interesting play pattern on the toy side? The toy design is actually led by Vicarious but I-Wei Huang, Character Director, and Paul Reiche III, Founder have a close interaction on iterating with the designs and making them home in the Skylands.
