Title: Animations and tiles.
Post by: StaticSails on December 27, 2010, 04:19:37 pm

It's been while since I've done any pixel animation and a slightly less while since I've done any animation. So I picked up an old project and dusted off some pieces.

I think the animation is fairly smooth other than the left (his right) leg. He could probably benefit from some contrast and maybe some lines to fit in with the style of the tiles a bit more. But after three good college tries line work seems impossible.

The tiles are fine (for me) but wouldn't mind figuring out a smooth solution for the dirt for the slopes.

Hi.

EDIT: Simply played with the speed of the animation and the colors.

The animation is smooth, but is he walking or running? If he is running then you should cut down some frames and make him shake a little more. Also, looks like he is punching someone in his back. The tiles look good to me, but they are very grided.
