The Screenshot Thread

[Hevendor]

A small sideproject I work on when I'm not inspired for Apocowlypse... much like Mario 64, you have several levels where you have to clear a couple different missions inside them, very open-ended.

You can unlock new levels by finding warp codexes. Some of these you get by time played, others need X amount of levels cleared before.

@Hevendor: The one thing I really like about this map is the name in the corner. When I saw that I was already hooked. Hahaha but that is a nice map, a little to symmetrical for me but I like it none the less.

 

[Shifter]

You can't have an open map, but a non-existent roof.

And where is the water coming from?

Points taken, but I still love that map. This is why I dont analyze mapping so much when I game..

 

[Shifter]

Ok, here's a fixed version.

I liked the first one too..but like this one as well. Cept the square area on the ground looks out of place.. (The designed tiles)

Character on a picture is a beastman named Kitaro.

Freyr, I really like that map! I would be even better if had a reason though...maybe a flying continent that has spouts of water that flow down to the surface?

Thanks. It shows the mission name too, and whether you've completed it or not (changes color). I messed around with the lighting effects for God knows how long until I got something that looked decent. I quite like that level though.

@megatron
Looks great. Like it always does :p

 

[craybest]

Very nice Freyr, It like the mood, but I agree about the square tiles...
MegatronX: as always, very veyr nice, I wonder how does it look in movement.
Here are 2 new screenshots from my game, I'm already working on lv4, there will be 8 levels in total, so I'm almost halfway finished...
Anyway the screens:
Lv3 Castle center:

Lv4 Study/Museum:

As I've said before, I'm using my own RTP edits, it doesn0t look completely original, but at least makes it look a bit less generic.
I still have to add some enemies in the 2nd screenshot, I just started working on that level.

 

[Freyr]

Thanks for your comments everyone. I'll see what I can do about those square tiles.

Freyr, I really like that map! I would be even better if had a reason though...maybe a flying continent that has spouts of water that flow down to the surface?

That's actually a great idea! :thumb: Can I use it?

@craybest: I love those screens, especially the first one. Reminds me of the Castle part of RE4.. Well, maybe not. Still awesome.

 

[Malachi]

Uhh sure...but it's not really an original idea...There are tonnes of games with flying continents that have spouts of water that flow down to the surface.
EGIt's a city, but meh.)

@Cray: You have some damn fine mapping skills its just that damn HUD really really turns me off. [[Non sexual way]] but yeah in the first screen you're door on the left is kinda hanging above the ground and I don't think you should have those two pots next to each other. Seems kinda odd. Other than that ace stuff you have here. But at least smooth out the hud that way its not all jaggy. :p

 

[Malachi]

About the door...thats not his fault...it's just the way the RTP door is/

 

[Makasu]

I know that. I'm just stating the obvious. But I swear there was a way to fix that sorta thing no?

 

[HarryE]

that damn HUD really really turns me off. [[Non sexual way]]

What's wrong with it? Seems fine to me.

 

[craybest]

there isn't a way to fix that, unless I edit the door (which isn't too hard, but it really doesn't bother me at all XD) maybe I'll edit it later, or if it bugs too many people, about the HUD if it's just the fact that it looks pixelated, I can fix that (or redo it with antialiasing, when I first did it I forgot RMXP could handle alpha values) maybe you think there are too many pots, but it's part of the battlesystem, you can break all the pots around and get some items, that's why there lots of them, because the game would be too dificult without them. (btw the max item number is 10)
I've never played RE4, so I really don't know how the castle part is, but I'll take it as a compliment haha. and thanx for the mapping comment Makasu.

 

[Hevendor]

Another screenshot of the same mission as before. You need to get to the core of the Volcanic Citadel and find out exactly what's happening there.

[Draken]

The atmosphere in that map is excellent :3
I love the red glow thingies.

 

[Makasu]

Yeah thats the problem. It seems fine, but as Cray already pointed out the pixelated look is what makes it look not so attractive. But I mean thats just my opinion like I've stated before. But yeah I see what you're saying Cray. I guess then the pots are okay. I never said there were to many. I just didn't like the fact there were two broken ones right besides each other. Seems a little I don't know what word I'm looking for...Out of place. :p either way no problem on the map comment.

@Hevendor: Lovely mapping too. Still like the name in the corner thing the most. Hahaha its just something about the way it looks and the color of it that speaks to me most. But also your ceiling is connected with your paths. :| not sure if you were going for that or not.

 

[Hevendor]

@Draken
Thanks! It was a bit hard to get the tone of the screen and the lighting effects right, but I think it does look rather good myself

@Makasu
If you mean the bridge, yes it's supposed to go over the roof. It's the roof of a small cave inside the Citadel.

Currently, we lack any pixel form of the SEED, so we can't really show it, but this is the area where it lands :D
