Thanks for all the feedback, guys! That nurikabe guy rocks, I love him. He could double as something to give you a boost up to higher places Lookin' cool. I love robots, so this is a win. I actually hadn't considered the player climbing on top of him. Maybe! Although, considering how much his head moves when he walks... What a deliciously phallic sprite! Damn it, Freud! very good progress so far. Your latest one, yurigabe i think is charming. Somehow i would love to see some steam/smole coming of the top of it. I'm sorry he remind me top much of a chimney :D Maybe he could use smoke cloud to escape. Like a squid with their ink.
Smoke might be nice, but I'm sort of trying to keep this guy a little on the simpler side. The nurikabe is looking awesome. He could double as something to give you a boost up to higher places Maybe when you beat him he falls over to make a bridge? I was actually already planning on making him fall over when defeated, crushing enemies behind him, but I hadn't considered the bridge idea. Interesting... Oh, and update, why not. Here's the title screen, still very much a work in progress. Cliff kinda looks like crap, but it'll do for now? I mean, you can still tell it's a cliff, right? Ignore the green and red pixels in the sun.

AAAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Even in WIP form, that is gorgeous. The sky, the clouds, the ruined buildings. And I like that cliff.
The firstpost sprites are also rather sweet. Looking good, Plasticware!

Oh my god that cliff is so awesome. That building with the sun reflect-y face is going to have more perspective lines on the lit-up face, right?

You mean the horizontal dithering I have in the sky? I just didn't feel like redoing that on the building, especially since the building and sky would sort of blend together. Different dithering technique, why not? I enjoy being inconsistent. Oh, yeah, and I'll be adding reflections to some of the other buildings too. Might have to add in more buildings and other details as well - looks kind of empty. This thing's a long way from finished.

Whilst that does look great, the angle of the building's roof is creating a really awkward tangent with the perspective. The perspective is also inconsistent between that building and the others. In fact the perspective on the buildings are all a bit off, which is pretty noticeable given their very regular shapes and lined up layout. I love the sky and the cliffs.

Perspective's off? I used the two colored pixels in the sun as the vanishing point for everything, so it should be pretty consistent. Hmm. I don't see it - sorry. Might just be because I'm used to seeing it that way after working with it for so long.
Also, everyone seems to like the cliff. I guess that's a keeper.

Actually you're right ... that's weird. I think maybe it was that sloping roof (which still has that awkward tangent, but nm) that was throwing my eye off. Either that or I am just really tired these days!

What kind of action is there going to be? Shooting/fighting/jumping/puzzles? I love the look of the sprites - hope the gameplay is as good :D

I'm still working on this. I swear! Here's a new enemy I just finished (sort of). It started off with this sketch. My first WIP was this: Sort of getting there, right? Here's my most recent WIP - just about done, I suppose. He might still need some more red on him, though. ...So yeah.

You kind of overdid the shiny shading thing but otherwise its beautiful.

I think more people should over-do shiny shading. I really like this robot, especially how he has giant hands and feet, but tiny arms and legs. You should make more ridiculously big and shiny robots!

Very nice, though it's kinda weird how there're shadows on the highlights. I want to see these guys in motion, now.

Hey, I love shiny, I just think you overdid it. It's very distracting.

It looks to me more like rough/scratched/brushed metal effect than lots of highlights. It makes a change from smooth chrome, and suits a battle robot.
I like all the little details behind the hulking armour plates.

Wow, really awesome sprite work. The second level boss is killer! The title screen looks sweet too. When will we see some of this stuff in game?
