Someday... *shakes fist

@lobstersteve Thanks!
About the perspective, idea is stolen from Zelda on SNES Example Image

You think it works better? If so I think there some other kind of witchcraft at works here. Maybe fact that everything on the walls have perspective, not only the corners like in Zelda.

[JLJac]

Really cool! Please make it! Wouldn't have to be very complicated but you need to make sure the music is dope.

[lobstersteve]

@Daniel Thomas
Yeah. I thought of Zelda when i saw that of course. You're right..the perspective there is also wrong but kinda just works. Maybe it is because of the walls, i can't really tell. Maybe you should look at binding of isaac, it has the same perspective and a cartoony style and works well.

@JLJac
Thx That would be actually one of the more harder things to do, because the shadow and the corners of the boxes should be relative to the middle point, so either i'd have to do some math to make this fake 3d, learn an actual 3d engine or simplify the mockup to make it simple 2d. I'll see..mixing real photographs and cartoons is an idea i liked since this:

[Bobert]

i'd say people don't notice the wonky perspective in 2d zelda partially because it's so much lower resolution and the art style is way less detailed. there are ways to work around it with a more detailed art style, though. maybe add darker shadows below the characters to cheese it without needing to modify the characters too much? it'd also probably be a good idea to make the chests and other objects keep the same perspective as the characters instead of having them adhere to the perspective of the walls

First mockup ever
I'll try to finish it this week (interface-wise)...

What do you guys think?

This looks real fun. Easily one of those mockups/screens that gets the curiosity bubbling like "how is this going to play"?

[sam_suite]

here's a mockup for Free Radical, which will be a (very unscientific) subatomic rhythm-based skating game for virtual reality! Still working out the kinks, but this is about what it'll likely look like. except, like, in space in front of you.

[sparkling vinegar]

Looks like Sparkling Vinegar had a similar concept 

lol, both look great though

Thank you, but unfortunately it will not be a game. It was just a concept art.

Mock up I did quite a while ago.. no idea what will happen

[Armageddon]

I don't think I'll ever make a third-person/top-down game, can't even get the camera angle right in a mockup image.

That's gorgeous! Looks like the kind of game I would suddenly lose entire weekends to.

Trying out a tileset I made. NES NTSC color palette. I'm not too happy with the lack of contrast in the upper right corner.

These look amazing. You could try to reduce the color range (use 1 tone less) from less important stuff like the walls. This would raise your contrast significantly and direct attention to stuff that is really important.

Or I could be just plain wrong and this was your intention all along.

Woah, really like this one! (:

cool

[letsap]

Did a mockup of character+environment+UI.

[Scut Fabulous]

I really like this.  A straight port of Command HQ with this kind of UI would be a seller.



Made this in a morning to hack out a few ideas.  Calling it 'Bugout'.
