I got tired of not being able to show off my work, so I got DW's permission to display some of the sprites I made for him. As always, I have composted my PNGs into a really bad GIF animation, ruining my otherwise excellent workmanship. This is one of several types of cowled figure that you will fight over the course of the game, and making them is my primary duty right now. The dithering made a bunch of white dots in the background, when I tried to convert the PNGs to GIFs, and I decided to just turn off transparency, rather than drag out the original PDN files. I still could, if I wanted to.

Well, I've got a few years on you, little bro.
"Everyone has 10,000 awful drawings in them, the trick is to get them out as quickly as possible." --Some guy who I have shamefully forgotten
It's really tricky, making sprites that mesh with the style DW's using for the more important characters, with my expendable minion guys.
He doesn't use any shading at all, and those luxurious robes, and their saturated colors simply demand shading.
I try to keep it to one or two even layers, but sometimes I just can't help myself.

Macromedia Fireworks is great, for making sprites. I'm not sure how much it is, though.
Still though, the whole thing sounds like great fun. I'd love to work on a game, one of these days..

Since you mentioned it in Fox's random thread, I figured I'd say this here, Blood:
If you want to make more intricate death animations, go for it. I have to rebuild the animation system from scratch, anyway, after all.
Of course, that's more work for you, so it's your call.

Does that mean I can finally get those multi-frame falling animations? Please? ;D

Yes!
No longer will cultists who enter the battlefield from above waft gently to the ground, with unperturbed stillness, for their robes will flap in the wind!
