zomb88 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Me and my team are working on a scifi game, you may of seen the unnamed game thread floating around.As i have completed a lot of the base engine features i have put a hold on its development to work out graphics, story and some more.Im tossing up between a style of graphics out of the ones below. Custom graphics are important to the project and teams concept. Player characters will be a form of robot.1.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeno Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 The retro look is certainly big right now. Will you be using #2 that size or shrunk down? Looks like it's done in pixel cubes of 4\. It's a total toss up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zomb88 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Yea thats why im tossing up. The player sprites are going to be big (maybe not as big as #2, maybe between size of 1 and 2)#2 is done in pixel blocks of 4 and im tossing up whether to use that style so we can start producing some custom sprites.

Lavos Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 the second looks great, the first one seems to be broken though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zomb88 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 Fixed the link to the 1st one.Seems like people like the 2nd style alot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Is the second one being used as it is, or will it be made smaller?And I like the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zomb88 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 As stated in a early post, maybe not as big as #2, maybe between size of 1 and 2 (so it will be a little bigger then #1).I guess its a toss up between a classic or more realistic feel. The good thing about #2 is that graphics would be easier and faster to produce (custom graphics that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.House Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 The thing is that you don't specify what kind of 2d game you're working on.2nd 8-bit one looks like it was taken from a sidescroller platformer game, everything depends on you, wich are the most easy to make the 8 bit ones or higher than that?

zomb88 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 It is a scifi game as stated in post 1.I think the 8bit graphics are simple and easy to make and would be faster and i do like the classic style but to keep it modern #1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.House Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 I didn't mean the genre of it, the type of it what would be, platformer, sidescroller, isometric, orthogonal, etc. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zomb88 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 4-8 directional orthogonal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zomb88 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 The aim is to have complete custom graphics set this is more of a style guide. If that changes any decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
