guzmanm Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 I'm finally making a game. This time, a serious one. Since I think I got better at spriting, I decided to practice them on this game as much as I can.Now, I decided I'm making it retro-styled graphics, and today I finished the male template and need some feedback. So, please give constructive criticism or else.;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusy Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 After so many sprites shown here… the only thing I have to say that they all start to look the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zade_o Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Not necessarily. I've never seen one like mine on here.But yeah, with this whole old school look they all are looking the same to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaming ace Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Everyone seems to picking up the retro theme lately, I personally have nothing against it though, I love retro styled pixeling. However, with everyone making retro sprites of similar sizes lots of the graphics to look rather similar. I guess I could've expected nothing less tho, because they're all just using the same pixeling style.Haha anyways that aside, the sprites are great Guzman. I like the choice of palette, overall nice work :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I could've expected nothing less tho, because they're all just using the same pixeling style.Actually I decided to make a retro game before you annouced your awesome sprites for Tales of Eberly. I noticed that our game ideas where very alike. So I decided to change to Greek mythology. I was talking with my friend on msn, and he came up that Chakkra was going to be my tileset artist. A big confusion. A while later Chakkra came out with a greek mythology mmo called Edonis. I was so ducking mad. But I left it behind and decided to base my game in other thing. All these happened like a month or two. I'm pretty angry with Chakkra by doing that. I just hate him. Now, I don't know what the fuck to do.Isn't that great?> Haha anyways that aside, the sprites are great Guzman. I like the choice of palette, overall nice work :DOh, well thanks! I'll try to make a unique style now. I, personally, don't want it to look like others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you want my two cents, make the game _you_ want to make. Don't let other people's games get in the way of yours just because they share a similar ideas and a similar setting. Trust me, no two games will ever turn out the same. Even with similar ideas. Think of your project and stick with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzmanm Posted July 15, 2010 Author Share Posted July 15, 2010 I retired all my games ideas a while a go. But, guess what? I'm bring awesomeness now. I'll make an isometric retro styled graphics. Already made some graphics including tiles. All show them later or tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzmanm Posted July 15, 2010 Author Share Posted July 15, 2010 Kreator… You're Just... Awesome... You started this crazy retro epicness and we all love you for this.Ontopic: Gonna post a mockup of graphics tomorrow. ;o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 @GuzmanM:> Kreator… You're Just... Awesome... You started this crazy retro epicness and we all love you for this.No.@Ghost: Sorry Ghosts, I automaticaly exclude those few actualy orginal and creative projects when speaking about "all".@Kreator: Yeah… and I find it an extreamly sad thing as one project doing retro graphics is cool, and I'm also sure that you guys will have tons of good stuff to make up for graphics. But generaly speaking, I belive that evolution and progression is a good thing. You generaly don't use pixelart when you can make HD graphics, you won't use ASCII art when you can IMG tag something... it's something that seems to elude thoese forums.To clarify, I do like the bit style graphics if done well. But I don't like to see it as a new fashion. Unique is unique only if done once. Even if you guys are not doing it, it looks like you decided to copy Kreator's style.

Dark Crusade Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 It would have been one project Kusy. I done it not only to try something original, but also to revisit the golden age of gaming. Then of course, every eclipse member and his grandma thinks what I'm doing looks awesome and does the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe I am giving credit to a pomie …He used 16 bit ripped graphics, but that was pretty out of the picture, I can confidentially say that this plague of artists spriting 16 bit graphics was since I was showing off my graphics for Elandor Chronicles.

This spawned a huge retro pixeling fest, kudos for Kreator XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
