The animation and concept art look great so far! Super whimsical. I'm excited to see more progress.
The spritesheets were wonderful to look at. I've been trying to teach myself animation but I've only really worked with cutouts and getting a fluid motion out of certain movements is frustrating. Seeing stuff like this is pretty refreshing and makes me want to learn more!
Keep it up!

Ya, I feel your pain. I've been animating in Flash & Toonboom for almost 7 years, all symbol / puppet based stuff. I'm so sick of it, so I try to hand-animate stuff as much as I can. I want most of the character stuff in Cloudface to be hand animated. thanks for the compliments! |

Love him! I really look forward to seeing more updates in the future. When I saw that animation, my face gradually merged into his expression, it's contagious damn it!

Haha! Awesome. So barley is getting a prototype worked up. We've got a running & jumping Cloudface right now. Once that is working out all smoothly we'll start building our levels & gameplay. I'm still jotting down different gameplay ideas & working on some color thumbnails for the different levels. These are strictly just to figure out the color schemes for each zone. I love doing these!! |

Those took quite a while, but only because I would work on them like half an hour or so every night because I was working 2 jobs and doing some pixel animation for Traversia for Matt. I'm usually a quick animator, so it was interesting to work on something like that at such a slow pace. The part that takes the longest is the color, as I have different line colors for different parts of his body. Oh, and the tie stripes take a while  |

The sheer whimsy of the design in this makes me happy.  I'm expecting the best idle animations ever.  |

I am of the firm belief that puns are funny & I don't give a shit.

I'm a huge fan of the EWJ series and since this game is in the vein of it, I can suspect there will be plenty of puns and wacky moments yes?

I may not go too crazy with the puns, & if I do, they might not be obvious. For example, these birds for now are just part of the background, I may never come out and say what their names are in game. But Cloudface overall has a whacky, whimsical tone. It's not going to be exactly like EWJ's but I'm sure there will be similarities, since I love that game. The world & characters are going to feel 'random' but there is an underlying structure to all of it. |
