It's hard-coded with predefined swap axis, each containing the list of other corresponding items. No complicated wizardry here Wizard

@ZackBell
Are you planning on leaving the squishy TF sprite scaling in the singleplayer mode?

As of now, that's the plan. Several people mentioned static player sprites and seemed pleased by the change(s). What are your thoughts?

I personally like the sprite scaling because it feels new and fresh  Tongue

Wouldn't be all that hard to automatically identify from which angles two models look identical, though. Or maybe it would. I'm not great at geometry.

Probs not really hard, but I'm not really into trying clever technical stuff when I already know how to deal with the situation the hard dumb way. I just want it to work basically :I

For me it would only make sense to automate if you're dealing with an enormous or user-generated base of models.

Don't be embarassed; there's absolutely nothing wrong with making an application only as complex as it needs to be.

Thanks ! My blog's here > http://polclarissou.tumblr.com/, I don't only post about this project but it's my main thing at the moment so most posts have been about it for the last month.
I should set up a tag specifically for this poject but I lack a title so I don't know what to tag the posts, heh.

Anyway I doesn't explain more really, just show more gifs... Maybe I'll make a real dev-oriented post oneday but actually there's not so much to know outside of what can already be guessed by the gifs. I haven't pushed the "gameplay" very far and the programming is very elementary and straightforward.

Spelunky Guy and III getting smashed by some falling fish. I'm testing numerous items, this being one of the SSB-like Pokeball summons (obviously spamming it, this isn't how it would work in-game  Well, hello there!)

First set of sprites for the rogue class in a tactics game I'm working on. A lot of work still left to do, some of the poses feels quite stiff. I probably should flip the whole sprite set horizontally to get a fresh look at it.

Also the squash and stretch looks a bit wonky. Any tips on how to avoid tearing and keep it as pixel perfect as possible? Or any tips in general how to make it look good? (Looking at Zack Bell Wink )

Maybe, I'm wrong, but it looks like you're scaling the whole sprite up a bit? In my previous gifs, all I have been doing is choosing x or y and scaling that to 1.33, I scale the other DOWN to 0.66.

Every frame I move the values 0.05 towards 1 (or whatever normal is).

that seems super finnicky! you can't just make the scaling lerp back to 1 at every step?

edit: actually read the post lol

That is correct! I accidentally messed up the values a bit when tweaking, it was supposed to shrink horizontally. However, on the weapons and head it feels better to just scale it up on both for some reason, so I left it that way for those parts.

I wouldn't have though you scale it that much by looking at your screens. When I try those values it looks pretty extreme. My values are tiny in comparison.

Yeah, I use lerping (Actuate in Haxe), it's really easy to use and flexible. I always bring the sprite back to 1 so it's displayed correctly when it's not animating.

Here is a new test, a bit better I think. I also changed the lerping from "elastic" to "quad", that might have made it a bit less jittery.

That new test is much better, IMO.

Good! Then I probably leave it like this for now. Thanks for your input!

Thanks a lot! Been working on this for awhile without much to show so that's really nice to hear.

The plan is to combine the above with this other test to offer the best customization of characters as possible. The example below uses 4 different "materials" (gradient ids) applied at random. The final game will probably need around 20 per character. I made a mistake when designing the system used above which made the contrast really inconsistent, but that can easily be fixed.

The problem is that it's hard to do good pixel art when you can't see what the final colours will look like, so I think I will put this on hold for a bit.
