WE DID IT FIRST SCREENSHOT THREAD

Begin!



Monster house for a little demo game I'm working on. It's gonna be a paaaain to animate.

I can't quite grasp what his feet are supposed to be. However, everything else is pretty grand.
That is one of the most cool intriguing screenshots I've seen, and a good first shot for an opening site.
Killer House with a groin cannon. ;D
My only thing is that it seems kinda flat. I'm sure adding shadows underneath it and such will help it pop out a little bit, but for now, it looks pretty... interesting. I'm hoping the "groin cannon" has nothing to do with that one conversation in the channel where you described a work of art involving a pipe.

I'd show something, but I really don't have anything that interesting to show. Plus, the anti-hype machine tells me, and I quote: "*bzzt* does not compute." So, you heard it from the A-HM. Though, I might pop up some screens if I enjoy some of the stuff I do for the Harvest Festival. I still have to do more research (mainly on the Millennial Fair from CT and the Ruin Festival from WA).

Unfortunately, wishful thinking won't get you anywhere.

Yay for Yotsuba, irrelevant as that is!


Sandfall has something that most games today lack-- black people.

I've always liked the look of your game, Despain. It has a very earthy feel to it.


Defining screenshot of MTR. I'm going to start work on it again.
The RM2K game 'Forgotten Majesty' had some rather nice black characters who were well realized and very believable. But then, I loved that game for its exceptional characterization.

But yeah, you don't see that alternate skin tones in video games in general. that often. S'shame.
Despains game just feels very westerny, which is awesome.

Please? I really want to play it.
Despain: that's really pretty. Did you make the graphics yourself? Serious props.

Most of the graphics are severely edited RTP. Although a lot of them, such as the camel that everyone seems to love, were made from scratch. :-)

I actually have a similar question for WIP. Are those tiles rips from Metroid or original? Because the grass and cliffs are fucking incredible. I'm probably going to be using those for reference when I work on the graphics for my platformer package.

Everything in that screen is original.
WIP, that metroid game has ALWAYS looked fantastic. It's a shame that it's unlikely that Nintendo won't make any more 2D metroids. The task is passed on to people like yourself I suppose.
Loving the Charsets in Sandfall and for WIP's screenshot...... *drools*
Some horrible attempt by me to use lighting effects:


Probably for the better that I can't pull them off very well, though. I should be working on my project instead of fooling around with stuff on the side, hehe.

I like how dark it is, but the lights seem... not good.
Well, for my first post, I may show what I've been working on.

Today, I finally started working on my game. I've been spending loads of time on story and such, but I've never actually started making the thing. I just finished mapping the very first area: Laroun Prison. Enjoy:



And in game:
