Adventure Game Prototype (5\10)

this looks epic - I'm excited to see where this goes. I feel like the trend with these sort of retro-style games right now is to make the pixel art look 'bad' - but 'bad' isn't necessarily retro. people spent a lot of time on their art, and it's good to see that reflected in this kind of work.

mudmask Thanks man! For me I don't think of it as retro. I just chose a pixel art style because I love the look . I wanted to make this game in full HD pixel art which would probably seem less "retro," but I would need a way to unload animations, and 1080p is a little risky with C2.

Amazing character design and animation, it really looks professionnal. I personnaly didn't notice the pixel effect, and didn't get a "retro" feeling in mind watching your animations.

Looks great! Hope to be able to see more of it soon.

Very nice project, can't wait to see more of this!

For hanging on the platform...

Is this not easier to use trigger and "turn off" and "turn on" gravity?

Your landing sequence could be better.

Aurel thanks for checking it out. Looking forward to picking up TNP when it's out of early access.

JamesXXXYZ haven't checked out your file, but like I said, I'm using 8 direction movement because I have other abilities that use it and those systems need to transition into each other. If climbing on the ledge is all you need then shutting off gravity may work for you.

What's a landing sequence?

falling > touch the ground animation looks like stand.

Amazing work. The atmosphere and animation are mighty impressive.

Some more work on combat. I spent a lot of time creating generic enemy events and working with families so that I can now just drop in new enemies easily.

Big gif incoming:

If the image takes too long to download, i think this gifv link should load faster but lower quality.

Cool and bloody.

Wonderful work

Love the art style and animation. The combat looks cool. Could see myself playing this especially coupled with a great story or a really great rpg character progression.

This is probably the most beautiful pixel art I've seen in this forum.

Can't wait to see more of this game. One question. How did you make your character go darker in darker areas? I struggle a bit with that issue at the moment.
