Title: Platforming Battle Sprite Template
Post by: fruckert on June 23, 2009, 02:22:13 AM

As you all should know by now, my battling engine in Myrdia (which I am trying to create a new title for, as Legend of Myrdia is kind of...meh...) is a platformer-type deal.

Currently I am using the Chumbucket (a dude on the YoYoGames site) sprites, which are located here (http://www.yoyogames.com/extras/resource/file/san1/90/90/male_character_outline_final.png) in case you're curious.
I'm not to fond of them, as some of the poses just suck (see Gun for a good example) and it doesn't have all that I need. I am not a very good spriter, so me editing them to get what I need is kind of just a bad idea.

So...I am now in dreadful need of a new template.
Here's pretty much what I am in need of with it:
*non-animated standing sprite, one with a melee weapon grip, one with a rifle grip, and one with a bow grip

*well animated walking and running sprites, about 5-6 frames each, again, one for each type of weapon

*a couple of different attacking sprites, one for each weapon, and for the melee one, it needs to be a three phase combo, with transitions back into prone.

*three phase magic charge, animated hopefully.

*magic casting in each of the four cardinal directions (up down left and right).

*jumping up, and falling down

*hurt pose

*walljump thing; basically a ninja crouch on the wall.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

I'd be much obliged for someone to pick this up, as I can't really continue messing with the PatchWork engine until I get some new graphics and get solid weapon animations.

You're asking a bit, so it's not really a suprise that no one has posted yet. You'd be better off posting in a place where people do this stuff all the time I.E. a pixel art site. If they want paid for it, well, maybe it's too much work for someone to do this with out being paid. Hell, if you were offering cash, I'd do it in a instant.

If you were wanting chibi sprites, then it'd be easier, but it sounds like you want fairly detailed.

Nah, not really...just something that at least works.

EDIT: That didn't really make much sense. Just one that is a bit more towards an action style and customizable than the Chumbucket sprites.

My suggestion, then, is maybe editting Megaman X sprites.

Alright then, I'll try that.
