Dissipate (A Blizz-ABS example game)

[Calintz]

Ouch...

@Winkio:
If you posted a reference picture of something you would use, I am sure that would makes thing less vague, and help Legacy out alot...

[legacyblade]

Older, ok. An older guy without armor, I think I can find one. Should he be scowling?

[Calintz]

Lol, yes!!
I have the perfect idea for this character actually...

Good luck Legacy, I will be waiting =)

[winkio]

Don't get me wrong legacy, it's an awesome sprite, its just, not really fitting for this specific game.

These are the closest RTP sprites to what I'm looking for for each character:
Creek Frental:    Theif02
Celia Ground:     Fighter08
Brendan Sikes:   Gunner01
Sera Fleetfoot:   Hunter03

So, any sprites you have that have similar characteristics to those would be great.  Basically, I need;
Creek:  Older guy who looks "experienced"
Celia:  Mature woman who looks "intelligent"
Brendan:  Youngish guy who looks "ambitious"
Sera:  Youngish girl who looks like an "introvert"

Yeah, that's what I'm going for.

[Calintz]

What does introvert mean??

[winkio]

someone that usually keeps to themselves and is quiet.

[Calintz]

All right, thank you.

I suppose that makes sense when you break up the prefixes and suffixes.
"in" = self
"overt" is dangerously close to "covert" = Secretive, mysteryious...

[winkio]

Wow, this is drawing epic attention levels!  7 pages of posts in 2 weeks!  I gotta finish the demo...

@legacy: which one of the four characters do you definitely not have a sprite for?  Because, I'll pose the RTP sprite for that one...

[Calintz]

That's why I say...
Don't let us down Winkio.

Cuncussion Gun -

Spear - Spear of the Naiads

Consumable Item - A shuriken that's cool looking...   I'll try to show it asap

[winkio]

Nice, nice, and, well, the last one should be nice!  Thanks   I promise you that your work will pay off in the end.  If you need anything, let me know

[Aqua]

Not what I imagined... and definately not winged like what I wanted...
It was hard to make the shape @.@

If you don't like this, I can always rework it.

[winkio]

hmm, i think it's a bit too... ambiguous.  Maybe try and define its shape a bit more, idk.  Oh, and I am working on the boomerang icon, so no need for you to worry about that

This looks good for a Bliz abs game, but i don't see any action in the screen shots.
oh and if you need a logo then just request one, i have been testing out some new stuff.
*For some reason Blizz-abs seems to look better now, Hmm... i guess blizzard finally found out that the hud was the problem.*

I agree with you there but there's two things you need to note.

1) There's probably no action because they're still "developmental" or test screenshots, just to show off the HUD...

2) winkio made his own custom HUD. Power of scripting. <3

[computerwizoo7]

Oh... cool!
so the bliz abs hud still sucks big time.

I don't know...that might just be pushing the bar a little. Like, flamebait I say. But then again, you're that kind of person here, so the best thing to do is walk on and ignore it. ;X Besides, this game shows how awesome or will show how awesome Blizz-ABS can be...=3

[winkio]

The reality of it is that BlizzABS is fully customizable, much more easily than other systems, in my opinion.  Changing the layout and background of the HUD took me all of an hour to create, with very few bugs, and no lag.  The menu system that I made (also featured in the screenshots) took me about twice the time, but it meshes really nicely.  Really, all game developers should know coding, so that instead of relying on default and built-in systems, they can make their own and adapt others to the purpose.

I'm glad that you like it cw7.  The whole goal was to catch the eye of people who are like "Wait, is THAT Blizz-ABS?"  And don't worry, the action will be outrageous.  Custom sprites + custom animations = blinding glory

[Blizzard]

It's the default HUD. It's there just to be there so you have a HUD if you have no scripter to make your own. Quite a number of ABSes don't even have a HUD. You're pushing it, cw7. Your game sucks, too, but I don't say it.

And you can achieve that with only using custom sprites, custom animations and a custom HUD. Awesome, isn't it? ^_^ Almost like Star G. Who would have thought that it uses Blizz-ABS. xD The only thing that hints to it is the bar I used for the HUD.

I am still waiting for this DEMO, and I am so excited to play it!!
How is this coming!?

Speaking of which...I still plan on doing those sprites for you =)
