Project: S.Q.U.I.R.E, THE LEGACY OF DEX

First enemy:


Sweeper

A robot guard who patrols the area and tries to kill you with his multiple lazer attacks and trying to ram you.

More moves to come, and kills and other types.

It's better, but I would exaggerate them a little more. For the second punch, have him turn around completely.

Okay sure, I guess I can do that. :P


Btw, this is now a PROJECT! Seeing as I've planned a lot out, and even the storyline and the game in my head also, I would really like some people to help out, sprite some stuff, design levels, art, music, the works.

And programming, can't do that worth a heck.

I have nothing better to do, so I'll help out with the programming.

Oh, sweet. Check the first page for the storyline and stuff if you care. And do you think I have enough animations for a simple engine to start with?

Actually I just read the storyline. You're actually a pretty good writer, dude. I'm actually pretty excited to be working on this one.

I can always start the engine with placeholders, but I think you have enough right now.

Want me to PM you when I have the gridwork lined out?

Oh, thanks!


Here's a hurt animation, after being hit. Don't make him fall down or anything, just after he goes "oww" and hits his butt on the ground make him pop up and run again or whatever.


Oh, and here's a few tiles, not anything though. Just placeholders I guess.


And yeah, PM when you have the gridwork lined out.

woah the scenery ones look incredible

The scenery is basically everything I've seen on PixelJoint 45356 times.

Which isn't necessarily a BAD thing, because most PJ spriters know what they're doin!

Yup, but it lacks originality.

I would help but i'm only good in basic MMF2.

It looks better, but I'm still not getting the "POW" feeling from it. The punch itself should have very few frames, like two or three at most. Also, now that you have the twisting movement, it looks a whole lot better, but something is still missing. I'm not gonna say what other people are saying, which is to twist the whole body. I say keep the feet in the same place, but instead, when he twists his upper body, make him twist his back leg a bit, so that he's basically just supporting that leg on his toes.
Here's what I usually do when I try to animate sprites, and am having a hard time with an animation. I stand in front of a mirror, and I do the move a couple of times, and analyze my own movement... You should try it.

Thanks everybody.

@Omega: I said they were just placeholders, so you'll see what comes out of it, okay?

@Lan, thanks, and I think I get what you're saying...kinda lift up on his tiptoes and stretch his leg out a bit? If not, an edit would be helpful!



Also, here's a few more moves for Dex. His roll move will either stun the enemy or be a weak hit.

Also, I need some concept artist for original enemy ideas and bosses, worlds, levels, and such. Logos and other parts for a game would be helpful, as well. Also spriters for some enemies, scenery, bosses, the whatnot. But thanks everyone, and especially Zero Kirby for programming.

Yeah, you got it right.

Oh, well in that case, thanks!

Bermp

Hey, could someone possibly compile all of my animations into one that loops, with all the frames? If so, I could sprite ya or something.

Thanks.

Well, here it is, after 3 or four hours of pixeling:



Still not done with the stuff, but I like it so far.

I might try doing the animations for you. It'll take a while, though.
