Game mock-up graphics and ideas

They should so take some shades in creepiness to belong to a Castlevania. This would be something like "My First Castlevania" with Dracula having safety caps on his fangs.

The walking animation reminds me of the Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery style. Very nice.

the tilea might be fine if made a little darker and the sky dark for such game.

@LD Studios btw, you are going to share the spritesets with us, yis?

u/LD Studios March 08, 2015, 01:25:46 AM

Sure, the spritesheet isn't very pretty/organized though

u/Duke "Tape" Eiyeron March 08, 2015, 07:49:15 AM

That makes me remember Terraria's style. Nice work.

u/Snektron March 08, 2015, 10:31:04 AM

Thanks mate! ^^

Woah, so many sprites!

also glad to see the characters facing up and down too

u/Duke "Tape" Eiyeron March 08, 2015, 04:37:44 PM

Heh, with this kind of sprites, you could make a spritesheet generator with taking sprites as parts and outputting a picture with all the frames!

u/Snektron March 08, 2015, 05:10:35 PM

And changable colors :o That would be awesome

u/LD Studios March 08, 2015, 09:30:38 PM

Thanks, that probably won't happen though

The backwards facing sprites are intended as a wall climbing animation. First frame of it also could be used for entering doors.

@Cumred Changeable colors would probably be doable on the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition using xLIBC, but you can only rotate through the color palette, not change individual colors. On the HP Prime it could be possible, although pre-rendering the differently colored tiles might take a while at the start of the program.

@LD ah I see. I thought that one of the frame sets was actually facing south.

Hmmmmmm, Terraria?

In all seriousness I would love to see these awesome sprites in a game.

u/Dream of Omnimaga March 09, 2015, 03:14:04 PM

That MC clone you linked to doesn't have much yet, though. I remember seeing one in grayscale before. That said, a color clone of Minecraft or Terraria would definitively be great.

u/CKH4 March 09, 2015, 03:19:45 PM

I'd have to go and buy a new calculator for it (I'm stuck on an 83+ that my friend gave me for free). That was more meant to show a terraria style cursor.
