WIP, ravenholm

on: October 09, 2008, 12:42:30 pm

Definately a WIP. I neither know what to add, or what to take away, But it's definately a WIP.  :mean:
Anyway, it feels incomplete, and i need some advice, and maybe a couple of edits.

based off of the ravenholm level in valve's half life 2.

Before thinking about taking this any further in terms of technical execution I think you should focus on getting the mood right. Ravenholm was first and foremost fucking scary.
There is nothing even remotely suggesting a scary atmosphere in your version.

As far as the sprites go I would say drop the white outlines and make the zombies less upright and slouching a bit. Also needs some of the running zombies and the slow poison ones.
There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours.
