Jeronimus' Game Workshop

[Jeronimus]

Good day to you all!

I've decided to post all the resources I'm creating for my current little game "Yopyop" in this one topic, hoping to get some good comments and criticism so I can improve. I'm a very unexperienced spriter so anything you say can and will probably help me somehow.

Spoiler: Title screen

The text is in Dutch, but I am convinced of the fact that I'll be translating it to English. I may still change the title screen as the story develops more in my mind, but this is the current one. Quite generic.

Spoiler: Sprites

These are currently the main characters that I've designed and sprited yet. I'm most happy about the last one, 'cause I really thinks it looks good. The first two are not that greatly sprited, I'm aware. I'm just too lazy to do something about it, I'm afraid.
These are made on the Cucumber template by Greenraven.

These are some characters I've made that don't have a specific role (yet).

Spoiler: Faces

You might recognize some of the faces on the sprites. More characters are to follow.

Spoiler: Beginning of a simple tileset

It's supposedly the classroom of "Mr. Janssens", obviously a teacher (and the first of the sprites and third of the faces)

Spoiler: Other artwork

I beg your pardon for the excessive use of spoilers. I just wanted to use them for one time in my pityful life. (Oh the humanity. Har-har!)

wow! this is really cool actually! Personally, I love games that uses different templates and love to see sprites of different templates. So to me this is really cool! Keep it up!

Here's a small piece of "artwork" that I made. It could be very well classified as being 'character design' of the "Medieval Versions" of the characters.

All other characters will recieve a similar different design to make them look "medieval", which, yes, is quite crucial to the story I have in mind at the moment.

I figured I'd post a little screenshot of the test game I've made so far. It is under no circumstances an ACTUAL screenshot from the finished game, seeing as I've hardly STARTED the game. However, I've been attempting to design something, looking -somewhat- alright.

This is the way the battle's looking at the moment (I did design the battlers before I made up the story, so they do not have an according medieval version and will most definitely get redesigned :P)

Here's some grand updating on the classroom tileset, based on an actual classroom of course. I've been having great trouble with getting the desks to be on the right squares and still able to walk between them on my designed map... But eventually I managed by just making the map bigger.

makes something along the lines of

(yeah, wrong floor down there)

Another little update to the tileset.

Added the books and cupboards, including one tile which can be used as a cupboard door. There's also some posters that go on the walls. I decided not to shade a lot, cause I figured it would sort of look cartoony enough. Any thoughts on that?

Also,

Thanks, I'm attempting to keep it up, and I'm glad you think it's cool! (That makes one person :D)

LOL. This looks so kewl. I take it it's meant to be comedic? The battle screen is great, even though i understand it's a mock up.

Well, the screenshot of the battle screen is an actual screenprint of what it looks like at the moment in the game engine. But I will start working on making the battle system and the battle screen better, once I get some other things out of the way.
Thanks for the rest, I'm glad you think it looks somewhat good enough.
