Sure thing, it's a mess of ideas, but there is plenty more randomness where that came from

Most definitely a game I would play! Twice on Sunday.

Thanks Rampack,

Ironic that you mention the "packs", kickstarter and a wise way to start it, was on my mind last night. I was debating going the kickstarter/greenlight route, with this new Earthbound/Mother project. I've never tried them before, but it did cross my mind last night that it may be a good idea to do some asset/music packs, to maybe get my feet wet and see how it works. I see a lot of those project's having trouble gaining a following/funding without first advertising.

I'm not sure what the best route would be; either doing a kickstarter for the packs, then releasing them for free for use in commercial/private games, or just charging a bit and doing plug and play matching packs for music and assets. I thought it might be a neat idea, to do a kickstarter on the project, and if successful, maybe give all the asset's away used in it, to the community for private/commercial usage. Great idea though, it seem's like a fun way to get some following for the project, experience with the programs, and help out the dev community. Unfortunately it's all new to me, so I'm not sure of the wisest path yet, but definitely a cool idea.

Thanks! Haha, pretty works! It's been fun

I'll try to get a game info thread going hopefully before to long!

A panda, that think's hes a human. Maybe with a sidekick dog with multiple personality disorder, and conflicting ideas. They could be stranded, back in time, after having fiddled with dad's inter-dimensional faucet cleaner, and now stuck inside a cartoon world full of goblins and hickory spiced bbq. They partake in a soul searching journey to find themselves (well, all 42 selves for the dog), while avoiding the bbq fanatical goblin king who want's to deep fry the panda for personal gain.

Although, I'm definitely down with Sheepy's idea too XD

Had a couple of week's to play around, and figured out I could post direct images finally . New pic's up. They need some alpha cleaning for sure. Hopefully it's a middle ground between the options. Thanks for all the feedback so far, it's been a lot of fun working on it so far.

Carsteroids, diggin it

Myself, lot's of asset's for my Earthbound/Mother project! (I'm so tired of tree's XD)

I tried out the finer lines on a offset blurred background, and rather liked it

quick mach up, but I put some new links on the first page to a few more assets, the first area (scene) of the game, and a couple of quick animations to go with it.

It's a bit of middle ground between style 1 and 3, and looked a little funny on a similar background. Changing the background a little seemed to offset it a lot better (although I didn't spent a heap of time on this, plenty of room for improvements I'm sure)

Just an scary thought,

Guy writes a 5 minute game, google monetized it. Guy wrote a rather nifty bot, mass downloaded it. Guy manages to climb through the rankings with it, then self sustain's (almost anyone will download/try the search suggestions, based by rankings), long enough to earn a small fortune. Guy get's caught, upset people mentioned suing. Company realizes they air out their dirty laundry by bringing a case publicly, showing the fault's inside their ranking system and how it can be manipulated. Guy forced into early retirement. Guy gives away all asset's and nifty cover story. The end!

Or maybe lunch XD,

At home now, and have a another draft. Here's a quick before/after on 3 with more edge and line definition and toning,

I think I see where your coming from Rampack, I'll try that after breakfast and see what happens

Thanks Drew

I enjoy tinkering with it, but doing it fresh is great advice. Thanks for all the helpful feedback, and agreed, I'll run off and finish up the game intro sequence eventing for a couple of days.

Thanks Rampack (love the name). I like 1 overall best too. I'm going to play around with (2) some more today hopefully. I think it would be neat too, after fixing the washed out shadows and desaturation a little.

I played around with the image's last night and may have accidentally fixed the oil version. New pic's on it up (style 3), let me know what ya think.
