Hi folks, I've put the fantasy sprites I created on this web page...you can download them if you like them. Rooster and I have already been making use of them in a game we've been working on in the other thread... I'm planning on putting a bunch of different sprites there....sooo....if you are interested in fantasy character sprites (not animated) - list a bunch of descriptions/names/ideas below and I will look into creating them over the next few weeks.

Oh also: I'm starting work on a simple javascript game engine - really simple -as a learning exercise for anyone who wants to learn a bit of javascript game development for the web. On the link below is a set of links to some javascript, a html page as text which uses the graphics on the page for a sample demo which is also shown. I'm going to update it as I go and comment it much more heavily to make it obvious what everything does. Enjoy! Link Updated |

Ooo, shiny. :P The top one makes me think of the "Five nights at Freddy's" stuff I keep seeing tbh. |

You definitely have found a unique graphics style which looks quite good. So how do you manage to draw with the right proportions and a convincing posture ? Do you use existing photos/drawings ? |
| ||
I use fantasy drawings from google images as a reference and sometimes change the pose slightly, give different equipment and hair styles. I'm getting better over time. I also draw the images much larger and then downsample them. I enjoy drawing each one. I dont think they're the right style or consistent quality to sell as a pack but I hope they are useful for people whether as placeholders or hobby game dev sprites. |
| ||
what is good is that you already have variety of characters/beasts and this is usually appreciated by players (different environments, different creatures, different armors, different weapons, different items, ...) |
| ||
well "Fantasy" that. Wish I could draw, it's no fair, I imagine awesome things in my brain hole but my hand refuses. |
| ||
Have you tried adding more shine to the images? They seem a little flat. I like graphics that have those light effects on them. They still look good now though. |
| ||
Pakz - I will look into it. Coffee dot bean - thanks, however Ive been practicing for a year, you can see the progression here: http://www.mattiesgames.com/art/ and http://www.mattiesgames.com/art/2017.html - there's a definite improvement over time. |

nice... if you think about it, if you do one drawing of a character/creature each day, at the end of one year you have 364 ! Take a look at this game : http://store.steampowered.com/app/270050/Quest_of_Dungeons/?l=english It uses "static"/"rigid" (=non animated) characters/creatures and the result is quite good imo. |

Haha that game looks like my one: http://mattiesgames.com/gorgoth Thanks....iI'll continue adding regularly and might release as a content pack somewhere once I have a hundred or more.. http://www.mattiesgames.com/assets/ |

Yes it looks like you have (or he has) bought the same assets pack. :P |
