Weapons

Posted 30th Dec 09, by Jess Bowers

I've been playing around with the graphics for Captain Plokey's various weapons. Here's what they look like right now:

From left to right:
- Plasma Rifle
- Laser
- Machine-Gun
- Plokinator

Hah! Thanks, Adam. I've had a lot of fun drawing these. Now, the hard part is to animate the recoil on each of them (with the exception of the laser).

Yeah it can be tricky to make them look powerful when shooting. Would be cool if you used white on his face when he's shooting to uplight it

Definitely! And, honestly, I've been trying to do just that. I actually have it working (sort of), but I think I'm about to break what I have.

Why am I going to break it... needed changes to crouching.

It's sort of a long story but I definitely want to have a flash of light on the sprite's face when the weapon fires. It just might necessitate that I reorganize the player's artwork into different objects... which right now has two components: a main body object and an arm/weapon object.
