Working on the main character


I took another day to spoil myself with art assets, in which I bathed in the presence of the swatches for hours, coming out of my high only when it was time for bed (now). The main character is an exiled prince, who is rather cocky and daring — a little short at times, too (to begin with).

I’ve got done about half of the battle sprite for him. It can be tough work sometimes starting with a blank canvas and creating something out of nothing.

I promised myself that tomorrow I will work on the image bug, and I will.

By the end of the week, I hope to have the game in a workable state.

Expect the first screenshots to contain “Slimey”, the test sprite.

Thanks for all the support lately! (Guys in Dev Chat, I’m lookin’ at you).

Later!

Hello my space friends! Now I added a space background to the ship. I love that space look but I still feel like stuff is missing. The lighting on the ship needs some improvements I think. Please tell me your opinion!

Hey you, rookie! Yes, I am talking to you!! Come over here? Relax! Just stick to me and everything will be fine. By the way, my name is James Varhuher, but you can call me Big J. I will bring you up to speed.

I thought I would do a quick show and tell, with a 2 min video of the start of the game and some of the game elements, after many many months it is really starting to come together, time to start networking https://gamejolt.com/games/Dungeon_fable/490669

Fun game fact!
