it's nice but i think your tiles ae relying way too much on the square, which ends up flattening the playing field and ruining any sense of pespective.  there's no need t obreak them up so regularly!

Do you mean that there's too many square objects, and I should add in more organic stuff? I know the perspective looks bad at the moment, and I definitely hopes to correct this. Right now, I have problem with the slight top camera view, especially to match the character style I want to go for.

So, do you fail when the enemies get to you? Like Space Invaders. What will your equivalent of the flying saucer be?
You're mixing Old West and industrial environments I see, or at least it looks that way. I find this odd. I assume the plot will explain it, though.

frankly, I haven't exactly plan out the game design at the moment, since it was more of something I did on impulse. The thing I actually borrowed from Space invader was actually the destructible cover, and maybe losing when the enemy reaches you. As of wave of enemies, they probably appears like the arcade 3rd person shooter instead.

As for the theme, I find Wild West alone to be kinda restrictive, so I added industrial stuff and hopefully some robots like we have in Wild Guns. Anyway, robots are probably easier to animate then humans, so yea...haha. On a side note though, maybe this post isn't as interesting, but is it just me, or is the whole cowboy and wild west theme less attractive. I realize the comments on this thread is lesser then my others. I wouldn't usually mind, but I'm hoping to take buyers into consideration too. What do you guys think?

Yea, I agrees with Tuna Unleashed. The ratio of the body and legs are like 1:1. My usually my preferred structure.
As for the walk cycle, it seems the body leans too much to the front.

Thanks Arne and robotacon.

Like robotacon mentioned, I suspect my animation will suffer the same fate, though I can't be totally sure for now. When I start working on it again, I will probably want to come up with another set of climb animation. Hopefully faster and more agility.
As for my monitor calibration, Arne is right too. I checked the difference between 0,0,0 and 10,10,10, and I could tell the different until I zoom things up to 3200% 

Everything is still a mock at the moment. So I will see how I can implement the C&C when I start again. Thanks again guys : )

I believe Jad was talking about the artwork from Tigsource artist like Annabelle Kennedy and insignificant studio. You can find the artwork here http://attractmo.de/blog/annabelle-kennedy/ and http://www.insignificantstudios.com/
In this sense, then I guess some can see the similarity since I was referencing Annabelle Kennedy painting at a point.

As for Phil Fish, I thought his style looks slightly different .

btw, the thread got revived because I finally started working on this again. The very 1st animation (guy climbing) is the one. Its a very small update, so if it's a bad idea, let me know, and I will update future animation in a new thread.
