Seems like we're changing this from the Projects board to the Indie Brawl board  :D

Sorry about that.

[҉ Valter ҉]

I don't think it's a problem. If anything, this board will just be a collaborative TIGS work board. In other words, it's a board for projects that all of TIGS can work on at once, like with Indie Brawl. I'm sure Brawl will just be the first of many

[Guert]

Character list updated. Anybody got some cool artwork to show? Like concept stuff?

[William Broom]

I believe we have idle sprites for Naija and Nikujin, but that's about it.

[Inane]

We have an idle for Turner, too.

[Guert]

yeah, I saw those but I'm looking for some concept art to decorate this thread. Of course, I could use these sprites but I dunno, I'll see what I can do/find.
Thanks!

[Inane]

Concept art isn't in great demand for a project where all the character designs are done for you.

[Guert]

Arenas, menus, Character artworks for the character selection screens, End battle/results portraits, title screen, loading screen and perhaps bio screen would need some artworks to give an idea of what it will look like in-game. Well, imo.   In all cases, an illustration of two indie characters fighting it out would be sweet.

Character Suggest:

Jeff, Mighty Administrator.

That is all.

[Soulliard]

Just wanted to announce that the code for Naija is complete. You can download the latest version of Indie Brawl in the Design Doc thread.

I think we should add another topic along the lines of "Artist collaboration". A lot of work is getting done on characters, programming and design, but little has been done with animations yet. We need a specific topic which requests artists to start contributing animations. I would hate to see this game grind to a halt just because interest in animating everything couldn't get gathered.

[Soulliard]

I agree that, at the moment, the game needs art pretty badly. Xion's contributed lots of great stuff, and Inane has contributed as well, but we can't expect them to make all the animations.

[Guert]

Indeed. We also need SFX and music.
