Junkboy, I thought your images looked a lot like Miyazaki's style, which is a really great thing!  I found an image from the Nausicaa manga series to compare :)



I think that if you, like the others said, push the lineweight, you'd improve a lot.  GReat stuff ;D

We should have a program that records only the changed pixels over time. Our own pixel codec if you will. That would mean we have to make a recording program too though, which is kind of hard.

Didn't Matriax make video's before? What did he use? You around Matriax?

An in-dev Pixel Recorder
The creator could really use some encouragement and critique, and you guys are qualified for that :)
It has quite a few features as is, and there's also an interface design competition for it going on ;)

Hey, I'm totally digging this thread! In regards to the newest shot, the big wooden dragon looks a little washed out, like its lacking some strong shadow. I mean, compare it to the sprite and you can notice it pretty readily. I say add stronger shadows and brighten and desaturate a tiny bit the highlight.

That is what you do to seperate the character from the background <_<
Looks good Kenneth, I hope it's going to come together.  Are you programming, or do you have a team of some sort...?

I'm a big believer in the idea that if you give rich people more money, and poor people less money, that the poor people will not, in fact, get more rich.  This is based on the fact that rich people are usually rich because they like to keep and/or spend their money, which is why they are rich in the first place.

Poor people do recieve money.  It's the biggest industry in the world!  Almost 5 trillion is spent annually on poverty in the US alone.  I feel that poor people should not receive welfare/ aid, since most of it is squandered (ie I saw a woman using food stamps to buy oysters  :yell:) but rather incorporate them into industry where they can be useful. 

A personal example of this- I used to volunteer with a food truck, we'd go to lower end neighboorhoods and give out food.  I suggested one day that in order for the poeple to recieve their food they pick up and present 20 pieces of trash on recieval.  To my astonsihment, the manger said OK; and thus the line length was cut in half.  It seems many of these people have gotten to the point where they simply won't work to provide for themselves, since they know someone else will do it for them.

Haha, this post is somewhat unrelated but I really wanted to say this.  Just so you know, I live in Los Angeles, so I am not very aware of how the poor are treated elsewhere, so forgive me if I seem too one-sided.

i find living is a lot easier if you don't care about anything.

I'm not sure if that qualifies as living <_<;;

In order for us to be rich, a whole lot of other people need to be piss poor.

Wealth is created and destroyed all the time, do you really think that everything comes from an ultimate "zero?"

Ugh this is total junk and I didn't realize it.  Sorry people, I should have waited a day before posting it :yell:

Very early on, I know.  I want critique on anatomy, weight, placement, volume.  He looks slightly off balance now, which I think I could fix by rotating his right foot outward a bit, but I'm spent.

Thanks guys :)

Yes it was Lee.  I wouldn't be surprised if more than half the this forum's members would shell out $70 for that game right now.  Including me  :hehe:

Please tell us more about the game!

Hey Chigsam, I really lol'd when I realized that you were only putting everyone's comments off only because you were concerned about how the sprite would look against the background.  You need to make things like that clear at the beginning man :)
