TLE Template, Do you see any problems?

[Arcanum]

I LOVE the amount of freedom this template gives... it just takes forever to sprite anything on it.

The way you can actually give expressions to the faces is awesome. If it didn't take so long to make these, I'm sure I'd use these in a game...

Anyway, I really can't say I have any serious gripes about this template at all. All I can say is that I really want to see the walking animation... mmm. And that it's kind of a shame you're shrinking them down to 80% of their size.

Arcanum: Whoa, great sprite there, I really like what you made And glad you like it so far.

As for walking animations, I finished the front and back walking animations, just need both sides and diagonals now

well if we can get good members that can sprite on them like you we will not need to shrink them. But at the moment we need more spriters, cause like you said. it takes along time to sprite on them :S

Wow, I've been seeing only amazing sprites with this template, very cool.

 

[BunnyKinx]

well then its all good :D

if you look at events and contest there is a sprite contest witch is on th sprite this one is based on.

I think you've done a good job on the template other than the fact that the clavicle jumps around a bit while rotating. Looks good though. At this size however, i really think it would be easier to just draw the animation by hand and shrink it down like they do for 2 d fighting games..pixel art-ing this thing is going to take forever O_o

 

[BunnyKinx]

naa not really... its only been being worked on for a 1 week and its done. 8dir x 8frames

and in this time there has been some pauses whilst the artist waited to get in contact with me

 

[Showkaizer]

1 week for one sprite? that's a long time considering you have to make a game full of em. I'm not trying to be pessimistic mind you. But if you're doing a whole game full of these things pixel by pixel, you're gonna be in for a long haul ^_^;

 

[BunnyKinx]

oo nooo... i ment 1 week per template :P

Looks great so far, I can't wait to see a demo/game using these.

Do you already have any tilesets to match?

 

[BunnyKinx]

sorry, we are not using tilesets. its all hand drawn maps. to make tilesets like this would make the game LAG!!! lol

......... Why?

Oh, because they'd be so huge ...?

 

[BunnyKinx]

yea thats right. also the perspective is off a little for tilesets

I looked at the template again and the shadow on the back of the head changes too abruptly if you shade a bit less on the down-right/down-left facing model it might look better
