[Darkfox]

Now? O_o

I can't start now. Guess I'm out. O_o

So all the parts of my avatars that don't involve the base sprite are what? Stolen from the internet?

Guys, I'm a plagiarist.

[Dragoon de Sol]

You think I'm a decent spriter? Hah!

But I guess I can give it a go if there's a prize involved. I wont do it for mere bragging rights.

[Meiscool]

I do my own character charasets now.

If that counts I mean.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

I'm in. Hopefully I'll read the rules carefully this time. xD











...Damn hamburger monster

[Ben]

Im not in.

But ill gladly watch.
I have no time for this right now

I recommend someone come up with some basic ground rules if you're going to encourage individualism instead of using templates. For example, size limitations, numbers of frames and directions, color depth. the inclusion or absence of weapons and/or other handheld objects that aren't part of the character itself. That sort of thing.

[Prpl_Mage]

I'm in. Lets have someone start this.

[Ben]

If i were to throw something out there for groundrules, allthough its not my show, but I AM intoxicated at a stupid hour

Id say 16 colours, including transperancy
And (XP style)
4 frames of animation,
minimum 4 directional poses

or 2k3 style, with three frames and 4 poses

Or there is always bchars.
THing is, single image non animated sprites are easy... animated sprites actually require some skill.

Would templates still be an option, or would people actually have to do this from scratch? Im excited to see what you jews come up with

[Fisherson]

...who?

You wouldn't know him, but his name was Musashi (no not Miyamoto Musashi from DW)

[Fisherson]

The brave fencer?

Yep that'd be him. I surprised anyone even remembers him. That game was awesome, even with the wacky story.

Also I think we should do what Lucas said. Just limit it to the Rm2k standard battler size. Also I think we should have a maximum of 250 colors and five shades. Would that work out for everyone?

[Archem]

Oh God, I remember reading about that in an old Game Informer. If only I had a PlayStation at the time. It looked cool.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that ancient GI is still intact. I must see if it still looks badd-asss*.







* Extra consonants are cool.

[fruckert]

16 should be enough.
...
I'm not a spriter or anything, but 250 is kind of overboard for a charset/battler/whatever the hell you guys are doing.
