The dude was an animated gif, so I used each frame of the animation for the running effects.
I wanted to do a side scroller with a dude, different levels, and some villains along the way. I can do the coding but the art, well I’d rather concentrate on the coding, and my art is not exactly my strong point.
So if you can do a hero like this one - the running sequence is smooth with about 5 or 6 frames to run:
I would need running, crouching, jumping, maybe draw (as in pull out) a weapon, punch kick, etc, hurt and dead. Alot, yes I know, but I’ll put your name on the credits for graphics and this could go in your portfolio.
Also eventually villains, background etc.
Let me know if you or - if you’ve got other things, then anyone else is interested.
Still, I have a project running at the moment… so it wouldn’t be right now.
Maybe we can get some more people in on this, creating characters like this is REALLY a tedious task. It’d be a lot easier if we have more people with us.
GrzKax: Sure - pixel art is excellent - have you seen the streetfighter games?! As eilsoe said the smaller things would look better in pixel art - the game dimensions are going to be around 700 x 450. Let me know what parts specifically you’d like to do so I know who would be doing what.
Well anything you would normally be able to pick up, like weapons, power-ups and extra-lives… Just give me some limits/ideas and i’ll see what I can come up with!
Hmmm. I’m trying to come up with a theme for the game cartoony, sci fi, not sure - it would depend on that.
Stuff like:
Bonuses,
Weapons - pistol - great big elephant gun, etc.
Little critter villains, like from the film critters.
Obviously have to limit it - start off small and see where it develops, and I don’t want to make this tile based - so I’m going to have to watch the speed of the movie.
Hello dudeman. I presume you’ll read the thread about the game.
So people, this is what I’ve been working on so far. I got the sprites and background from the net - just modified it - like I said I want to do something original with no borrowed graphics. I can do the code just not the graphics.
