Hey people. I\'m making a Super smash bros. type of game, and I would like to use custom characters instead of using cameos. So what i\'m asking, is that if there\'s any spriter who would like to submit a spritesheet of their own custom character (CAN be an edit, but it must be original). I will program it into the game and give credit to the owner. The sprite should be around the size of a megaman sprite from MM7, BUT can be bigger or smaller. OK, now I\'ll lay down the law of the spritesheet:
-normal stance
-movement
-jumping
-taking damage
-appearing
-basic attack (2 different ones)
-combo attack (2 different ones)
-special attack
-winning stance
-mugshot (no border)
-any projectiles (designate to which attack they go with)
-name sprite
-the basic attacks while airborn
-crouching and basic attacks while crouching

That may be alot to ask, but it\'s pertinent to make a game run smoothly and have great gameplay.

So, If you\'d like, help me out.

(and if anyone has an idea for the name of this game, let me know)

Ooh, SSB wannabe games... @_@

Well, I could make some sprites. But that\'ll take time. A name? How about: \"Interordi: Clash of the Sprites\"

Thanks Morphman. I didn\'t want this project rushed, anyway. I\'ll take as long as i need.

and i was even thinking along the lines of that title. \'Spriter\'s clash\' maybe? I could say who made each sprite on the select screen, so it fits with the title.

Naw, you shouldn\'t. Quality is best.

That\'s also a nice title. Everybody could suggest one here, and you choose one out of it.
BTW, my friend Ray already has a few sprites of his own. He has one in his Avatar.

You know what\'s funny? I think FLASH FORWARD or somebody already made a game like this with 8-bit sprites, if that\'s what you\'re going for. But hey, since this is obviously your own idea, I say go for it. :)

You have my encouragement, but my help is not offered because I can\'t remember the last time I sprited anything half-decent. :lol:

i actually played that. My game WILL far surpass it graphically, gameplay-wise AND content-wise(provided i get a few spriters to sprite for me).

and thanks Ray, if you do.

and Ribita I use paint to make my sprites, and i find it quite easy. It took me about 3 days to start from scratch on the sprite i made for this game, to complete it up to walking sprites.

I spent a while trying to think of a constructive way to respond, but couldn\'t, so I\'ll just say that that\'s grounds for fight-starting. Don\'t badmouth Flash Forward\'s game. I can\'t think of anything more dignified to say on the subject.:P

Well, today, I had a little 8-hour long workshop on how to make a game, and with PP-presentations on the history of games and consoles and what are the stuff they use for it and what a game maker actually does...

I got to make a few little games like Pong, Get-To-Your-Friend-In-The-Maze, and a teeny-tiny part of The Legend Of Zelda: Yes, We Don\'t Know Which One Either.

I\'m busy on a sprite sheet of myself. I want it to be as original as possible. Not totally custom made, I\'ll just use parts from 16-bit sprites, put \'em together and recolour the lot. It\'ll take some time, though...

I\'ll make some awesome sprites for you, but by mm7 size, that also means you want them 16-bit? I\'ll get started, but don\'t expect anything for a while, I\'m slow.:lol:

Ok, I didn\'t mean to sound harsh, there. I\'m just saying what I expect this to be.

Ray, If you\'d Like I\'ll use that. Just make his name something like what you\'ll see in my example spritesheet (but different).

Morphman, I anxiously await yours.

Hollow, I\'m using gamemaker.

Thank you PsychoGiga.



Here\'s my spritesheet that i\'ve made. I\'ll be making more (maybe 1 or 2, depends on how many other submissions i get) later. Mine are fully custom, and I\'d like some opinions on how they look and what i can improve on. Don\'t flame me to hell if you think these suck, please.

Well, I\'ve finished quite a bit on my sprite sheet - and I gotta say: it looks really cool for my first one - but I cannot upload it at imageshack somehow. Can someone explain?

Well for starters ask Flareman, he\'s quite the genius, especially with image shack, or if you have, I mean HAVE to then put in your avatar till people take it, copy and paste it into some sort of paint thing, it should go back to original size then but I\'m not quite sure...

Thanks, and no. I took parts from MegaMan, ProtoMan and Bass and a 16-bit ElecMan, put \'em in a blender and used the awesome art of recolouring.

Morph I can\'t see them. Could you please find a way to show them at original size?


As for progress, I\'ve got a start on the engine. Most of Zepher\'s movements are complete (and by Zepher I mean the character).

EDIT: Never mind, Morph. I\'ve seen them. When It\'s complete, I\'d most definatley use it in this game.

And Ray, Do i have permission to use yours?
