The Screenshot Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
I like the second one better, Reives. The shading on it just gives it more character and makes the first one look a little bland in comparison.

EDIT:
I'm not too sure about the flower colors, though...I think a nice mix of light blue and purple might compliment the softer green/blue tones of the map.
 
Divine_engage: I think it's time to move on now. Sure, one or two posts with the same screen are okay, but don't spam every three posts with it, okay? You've got your own project thread for that. ;)

Or the mapping improvement thread. Either would work.

Klopskind77, those are nice tilesets, but the charactersets really don't match. In fact, they stick out like a sore thumb.
 
I have a sudden need to post lots of screens of my new shop system so everyone can tell me how awesome they are D: XD

This has a lot of features in one screenshot :O
The pictures are dimmed and the name is greyed because you can't buy it.
The price is greyed because you dont have enough Pengons for it, and the item number is yellow because you can't carry any more of them. Also, shurikens at that shop are set to sell for 3x the normal price :O I can set the shops to buy / sell certain items at different rates :D
On top of that, though you can't see it, this shop is a buy-only shop. It goes straight to the buying screen.

Though you can't see it in this one either, this is a screenshot of a sell-only shop. It goes straight to the selling screen.

This is a screenshot of a normal shop, at the buy/sell menu. It's really just a modification of the 'Attack/Escape' menu that appears at the start of battles XP

This is a screenshot of the Purchase Menu. It calculates how many of the item you can actually buy/carry. Up/Down increase/decrease by 1, left/right go by 10s.

This is what it looks like when you select a weapon. The small window on the right will show all the characters in your party, with an icon next to them showing if the weapon will raise their attack, lower their attack, has the same attack, or if they can't equip it. There's going to be a lot more to the various weapon types than just plain attack, though, but I don't have nearly enough room to put everything else in. Some weapon types will have more defense, some will have less attack but stronger skills, etc... It's going to end up needing a lot of strategy and preference :D

And lastly, this is what it looks like when you're buying armor. It also shows all the characters in your party, with 1-2 icons next to them. It shows if they can equip it, and whether it raises/lowers/is equal to the defense and magic defense of whatever you have equipped in that slot. There's also going to be a lot more to armor than just phys/mag defense, but, no room :/
The skills you gain will change depending on what combination of weapon/orb/armor you have equipped :D
 
@jaberwoky: looks pretty cool and unique to me. (yay penguins!)

Did a lot of spriting for Ethereal Dreams today. (typical weekend slave driving by Racheal...It's becoming routine)
Anyway, finished off the menacing plant monster that'll be in the next forested area. (yes....evil with a pink flower)

He's animated (opens his jaw and his lure bounces), but I thought that an animated screenshot would be death to some internets. (like mine?)
Anywho, I just wanted to share. *skitters off*
 
I've been currently revamping some things in the current episodes of my series Domain. This is from the prologue. I'm basicly updateing a lot of things XD


edit: Edited pic in my next post.

Reminds me remarkably of Young Merlin for the SNES...
 
@Makio-Kuta;I really like that monster concept and the pink flower makes him cute but he's still menacing! Is that how he lures his prey into a false sense of security? You know "Aww look at the pretty flower" Then snap, your dead.

Finally finished a simple background for a cooking workshop ^^; (mostly finished that is)

They are in some area's of the game. Each successful venture gives you an item and 1 or 5pts toward cooking skills (depending on how many materials are used) Of course if you are unsuccesful you get none, and if you set the kitchen on fire you lose a skill, not to mention pay a fine to replace damaged materials.

More points you gain the success rate rises and less chances of setting the kitchen on fire. (There is however, a university you could train at and raise your cooking skills. But, you do not get items out of it)
 
@makio:
The sprites look great :D

@speed:
The map looks pretty good, but the tree on the left looks like its halfway off a cliff, and the waterfalls aren't the same color as the water, and in the bottom left there was a mixup with the cliff faces XP I like how the grass looks s:
 
@sandgolem and Jaberwoky: Thanks. n.n
@arcthemonkey: I've never heard of that game. @.@ So I hope you're not implying anything.
@kiearaphoenix: Thanks. n.n Actually, the large yellow I can't remember what part of the plant that is (Stamen?) acts as a lure by bouncing about. But I suppose the flower would attract things too. n.n
As for your screenshot - I really love cooking mini games. XD The background gives off a 3D feeling...it's neat. And the icons for the different dishes are adorable.
 
@Jaber:
+5 points every time I see those penguins rolling around all over the place. :D

@Makio:
Sprite's looking awesome, the pink flower feels like a quirk. :p

@Kiera:
Feels 3D yet fits with the RTP at the same time, has a home-made feeling to it, heheh.

@Speed:
Wewt@Panorama! Perhaps a little more dividing on the mountains instead of one straight cone could improve the look, but nice work none the less. :)
