Title: Too Poor To Survive art
Post by: setz on February 01, 2011, 10:34:48 am
I don't make very many posts here, but I thought I'd do a small art dump from a game I made over the weekend.

I did some updates to it since then (mostly performance improvements, some other tweaks) and you can play it here (http://www.kongregate.com/games/skiffles/too-poor-to-survive)

But yeah, heres a dump. I didn't have much time to work on all of these, but I was fairly satisfied with the end result.

I'm not too pleased with the animations, they're very cheap, and not really that great, but I feel they work good enough for the game, and I've got another bigger project I've got to get to now  :blind:

I played the game and it was really fun, but the controls were awful and made me quit.

Hmm, the gradient of light(though normally this reflects an atmosphere) is coming from space instead of Earth?

I would love to say "Its the sun!" or somehow explain that theres some light-giving-off body above the screen, but to be honest, this was just done because I thought it looked good, with no thought given to why.  :-[

Hey that's cool :) that works too. I like it, the Earth looks like crumbled paper or something similar.
