Those are hot shawn.

..btw, I'm new here..

MartyMan - Awesome death animation. The timing is terrific!

Haha, thank you, though it's more of a getting-punched-in-the-face animation.

This though, this is a Death animation!

(the wip)

[JoGribbs]

I hope I look that whimsical when I die.

Walrus I doubt you have any interest currently but myself and programmer have a fighting game engine under development (it's enough to run an SF2 like game, as it has proper colission, hitstun, hitstop, blocking, throwing, knockdowns, adjustable hitbocks, knockback etc) and have a lot of experience with competitive fighting games. It's rare to find anyone talented enough at animation to actually make a fighting game, art wise. That work is pretty breathtaking.

Edit: If you even wanna put that work to use, I can show you the engine, just toss me a PM. If not that's cool too. Just figured I'd offer.

[walrus]

kenesque - I appreciate the offer but it's enough work working on one indie game in all my free time. I simply don't have time for TWO!

Marty - Another great animation with lovely timing! (My bad on the hit vs. death, though.) My only suggestion with the death (not face punch) would be to maybe consider adding a bit more overlapping motion with the hair when/after he hits the ground.

But anyhow, you've inspired me to post some of my own death animations (and some other random loops) from my current w.i.p. iPhone game, MageMaze.

Troll roar and death:


Kobold roar and death:


UmberHulk idle, confused, and death:


SkjellyJelly idle:


Leif the Thief idle, vanish and reappear:


Minotaur idle and death:


And of course the death of hero of the story, Svenn the Svaliant:


Oh, and for some context:


Hope you like, and thanks for the kind comments about the 'InfestStation' art!

It doesn't have to be now of course I am working on something else at the moment as well. Just leaving the offer out there.



This was the engine as of a week ago. The offer really stands to anyone who can animate competently and have the time, I was just blown away by what you had done.

[PleasingFungus]

The idea of a confused Umber Hulk amuses me tremendously.

(Very nice spriting!)

[Maph]

Walrus, hell yes!  Sad that the project is dead, I love games that are just chalk full of monster characters.

I'd love to pick up the game again at some point in the future, maybe if I get some experience coding RPG stuff, and if we have a couple more dedicated people on our side. It was just too much for just the two of us. That and a general lack of interest over at GameArtisans.

For those that care, I still have some of the builds of the hella chunky battle system online. http://www.maphart.com/uploads/InfestStation/Build/InfestStation_0_06.html This one has a bunch of Walrus's characters and some of the competition made ones as well.

definitely.

also, yeah, that's why meh.

[rogerlevy]

personally, i like "off" colors ... gives it an old 80's cartoon feeling 

[Pietepiet]

Some people might recognize set #1 from last GDC. Just had set #2 printed. If you're lucky, you might get some at GDC 2011

[Jared C]

Cool stickers, Piet! I've been wanting to design some pixel stickers, so yours make good inspiration.
The girl with the black hair is cute. 

[Pietepiet]

Thanks! Some of your pixel pieces inspired me in ways when making these actually, haha

Making stickers is really fun, especially when they're still where you left them several months later, like one of mine on somebody's house in a city here in the Netherlands. Plus it's a nice limited canvas. I hate it when people just put artwork they've already made onto stickers or pins or whatever.

[Jared C]

Aww shucks. Didn't know I inspired people.

Yeah, it's cool because my dad is in the printing/advertising industry, so I get to make super permanent factory-grade stickers for cheap.  Problem is, I don't know what to put on them yet!

[RCIX]

Ok, i've revised my pixelart. The shield still doesn't look too much like a shield, but i think i improved my wand and sword some.



Feedback is appreciated

[MartyMan]

RCIX - I like the new shield! Much more interesting than the first one.

I made a some more things.

 

[sereneworx]

Those are really lovely. I especially like the portraits, very characterful.
