Changes to Graphics
Posted 11th Nov 09, by Jess Bowers  
Andy and I are still working on Captain Plokey!

I've received some very helpful critical feedback on the game's primary sprite. The original palette was pretty dark and, unfortunately, the sprite's pants blended into dark backgrounds. Also, the color count in the sprite was far higher than it really needed to be. So, the pants have been lightened, and I've reduced the total color count.

Here is a comparrison of the old and new sprites. There will probably be more changes to come, but I expect them to be fairly small.

Also, if you're interested, here is what the old sprite looked like animated:

WALKING (2x size with 10 frames)

Image

CLIMBING (2x size with 8 frames)

The lighting of the back in the climbing animation is out of this world! Insanely smooth! It's just as I say, more frames = smoother animations!
Also, I'm loving the new design! Bit-crushed!
