Gish!

on: May 10, 2009, 02:17:02 am
I made this tribute for fun yesterday, to get back in the habit of pixeling after a long time away. These are his four modes: normal, slick, sticky, and heavy.



I wasn't happy with the mouths, and decided that maybe I should review some references (screenshots). So, here's the latest version:



I'm a lot happier with this one, especially the teeth. 10 Colors + transparency, though I could probably reduce by 1 or maybe 2 more if I needed to.

Thoughts?

Clean that outside and it'll increase the neat by a good 5 or 10 points.
I'd like to see a little bit of color in the black... if that makes sense.
The slick mode should be shinier than normal. Sticky mode looks more like upside down mode. Heavy looks ok but some rigidness might help it look heavier.

Shinier when slick is a good idea. Not true to the game, nor is coloring him a bit, but that doesn't really matter. You're right, when sticky he can climb walls and ceilings.

All right, yeah, this isn't the best background color to show grey outlines against. Here's the color I was working against.
