Thanks, guys.
I really like the design
reminds me of a combination of
and
thats not a bad thing
Who's that supposed to be in the first pic? Voldo from Soul Calibur? If it is, they're similar in some respects, yeah, though at no stage did I go quite as far as to have a bare-arsed body suit or a horned codpiece!
And I tried to steer clear of making him look like NiGHTS when I decided he'd be jester-like but, when reworking it again and again, the straitjacket arms started to widen and I decided I liked it... I don't mind people making that association - I love that game.
Looks great King, but one thing, do the proportions seem a little too realistic for the MC style? The MC style always seems to me to have short legs and arms in concept art.
Yeah, maybe... I did try to shorten the legs a little - they're still not quite realistic proportions - but the arms were definitely meant to be long, thin and spidery, because he's always be flailing them round. Thing is, it really didn't go with his character making him short and super-deformed, but the sprites will compensate somewhat and he'll be more in proportion to the rest of the characters.
Sorry but jesus christ. Get off the forums. Go work at Nintendo. That's !@#$% amazing.
Blimey, thanks! I'll get my coat.
SPOILERS NOON IS ZELDA IN THE END OF THE GAME LOL
lol, rumbled!
Let me state for the record, Noon and Zelda are NOT the same person!
Or are they...?
No, they're not.
Well, you have made all for this game right? How much time have you spent in this amazing project? also, Noon is really cool, how did you learned to sprite/draw/code?
I guess I have spent a hell of a lot of time on it over a couple of years, but it's really not that much per week, say. I do play less games than I used to and I spend that kind of time working on this, but I don't let it get in the way of anything else. It's important to take breaks and come back to it with fresh eyes. It allows you to be more self-critical, for one thing. And I've always been able to draw quite naturally. Learned more from comics than I ever did in school.
ps: still hope for a custom game after that, pls start brainstorming already if you havent done it yet ;P
Oh, I have plenty of ideas, just not the time. Maybe I'll do something with them in the future, or during a break from this project - but this is my priority.
