The Screenshot Thread

@twin matrix: i really like the graphics of that game, i seen the other picture a while back, it's so cartoonie, reminds me of cell shading... But i have a question now.... will it be a naked protagonist the whole game :P

@speedpaws: your map is really dark, it's hard to see the chains they are talking about... Or maybe my monitor is screwie.

@tindy: Twin matrix has a point, it looks like you just rushed through the map design. Try smaller maps, Or instead of making 1 Big jail, like yours, try making a hallway of many different maps that all connect. adding depth to the dungeon also making it a labyrinth style dungeon.

 

[Tindy]

@durdadan: It is a hallway of connecting maps - but only three, for interests' sake. I personally don't like seeing cell after cell after cell after cell after....

It will be bigger, but going down the halls instead of just across, and the stairs will obviously lead to the fort/castle/whatever.

The map with the big hallway isn't finished, though, so that's why it's a bit not-finished looking. ^_^;

@durdadan: Thanks. ^^ Only if you want him to be. :P

@ twin matrix: awesome i don't ever recall a naked hero. make sure he doesn't get a sun burn in the desert

 

[Tindy]

@speedpaws: Awesome map! - question: how'd you do the light effects?

 

[Rye]

That looks pretty sweet, J-Street. =) I really like the glowy-ness.

I love your title screen, kiearaphoenix - what's the name of your game? Akyoosu?

 

[Speedpaws]

@Tindy: I used a light script from Near.

@Durdadan: Yeah it's dark. But if it was too dark to see the chains, then it must be your computer o.o It's supposed to be somewhat dark because they are underground and the only light comes from the candles.

My last update to the tileset and last addition to this thread for quite some time. Once I get my game's thread up over the weekend I'll just keep all the screenshots of my game in there. But till then, enjoy.

Those lighting effects are nice, but they don't really look as if they are coming from the windows :p

KiearaP, it seems like a nice map as a whole but the windows need a bit of sorting. It looks really strange where the lights (which are a bit pixelated compared to, say, the trees) don't continue around the different faces of the window. Some of the potted plants there don't quite fit in with the other smooth, more detailed objects.

Thanks Rye. ^^
I've been going back and forth about whether or not to do the lighting effects, but I figured that a majority of will be 20x15 so I see no harm in putting in a little extra work where I'm being lazy :P

C&C please.

Draken, we need to talk some time, I dont think your using that tileset properly. ><

 

[Draken]

It would help if you got yourself online :P

But please do tell, how am I misusing it?

 

[SakuraPhoenix]

@ Tindy Arigato! ^^ And yes it is spelled that way kinda sorta. It is really Aqua'os but in nihon go( you prob. know quite well) there isn't a qu, and I know it would be "Akua" for Aqua but I decided to go the phonetic route (How I'd like it to sound) or at least try -_-;

Thanks I really appreciate the comments^^ Do you mean the windows in the game or do I need to sort the window in my thread? It is my first time trying to do foilage or outdoors on a tileset, I'm having a really hard time trying to make it blend with RTP and yet keep it same with my style. If you could help give me tips to accomplish this please PM me!^^;

@kiearaphoenix: It looks amazing! I love the palace in the second screenshot. It has a sort of magical feel about it.
@durdadan: Well, he did get a sunburn (*cry*), so he went to the snowplains to heal:

Twin, stop being lazy and make the town tileset already! =D

 

[Twin Matrix]

You don't like my pinetrees? ;_;

And, yea, I'll work on the Zahalum village next. Considering it's in the forest and the first town you come across (aside from the futuristic steam-punk city the humans live in).
