New RM2K3 project. Untitled.

New sprite set, for the Teardel townspeople.



I know I haven't posted anything on this in a while, but I have several more elements in progress that I'll be sharing soon.

Looks good, did you come up with a name for the game yet?

[Moosetroop11]

I like what I've seen. Have you considered cobbling what you've got so far into a demo? A bit of feedback does wonders for your morale and productivity on something like this.

Very lovely little sets! Close to the same size as our chain game davoeites but clearly original design with that softness. I like it alot!

[ANominalWill]

My first face set is nearly complete. (Playable characters)



I have nearly enough assets that a playable demo should arrive shortly.

There is no official title yet, but the project name is "Rosen Glade".

[ANominalWill]

Here's the sprite set which goes to the face set above. It's not fully complete yet, and I'm not quite satisfied with it. I completed this one before the other, so I hadn't yet settled on the "soft" appeal. The positions are also a little off. Consider it a work in progress.

[ANominalWill]

Made a couple changes with the face set to make it more consistent.

I'm gonna start getting everything put together for a demo which I should be able to finish by this weekend. Stay tuned!

[Fisherson]

Just adorable but I do hope you have skills with picture placement or plan to use drawn in cut scenes as that size is going to limit your own map expressions. We made do in the Chain Game and got a few good re-usable map poses but more oft than naught we had to use pictures to do really interesting things with characters. Extended Charasets are good too if you know how to splice them. Either way good luck!

Made a couple changes with the face set to make it more consistent.

Hmm, I kinda preferred the old girl's face.

Here's the latest status on my face set:



I made some tweaks here and there, and I just have four more to go before this set is done.

[Fisherson]

Your faceset style reminds me of the GBA remakes of the Final Fantasy classics. I like 'em! Keep it up!

[Zoltar]

Your facesets are mondo original but you should consider using a bust message core. It's gnarly to code but would let you use more text and still show off these epic little dudes. Akaw!

[ANominalWill]

Zoltar, thanks for the suggestion. I've considered doing something to that effect, but it might be a little out of my ability, at least in the interest of maintaining a clean and professional look.

The face sets themselves were drawn with broad strokes in MSPaint (Windows 9x era) using a mouse, then downsized and sampled in Irfanview. It was a surprisingly difficult task on its own.

My progress has slowed down some because I recently changed to a Linux environment, but I'll have more updates in the near future.
