there will eventually be story board and speech. I want to get a good deal of panels done before i fill in the bubbles.
It looks like me because it is me   Im diverting myself with random autobiographical scenes in sequential format.
Ive been in some bizarre situations, and figured a comic is a good way to tell about them. more for friends irl, but others might enjoy it as well.

Awesome.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

Oh wow, I just realized you did that with facebook graffiti.

I'm substantially more impressed now.

[Ben]

fb graffitti and my tablet. I won a contest for these once, but they scheisters never sent my free humungous monitor. Dell is not to be trusted

[Ben]

O hai


This is something Ive been killing time with lately. I guess its not much to look at yet, but Im proud thus far. Ive got a few more poses and stances to do before I start testing and debugging the animations,
and then adding some skins. My first isometric sprite attempts. I used FF12Revenant wings as a reference for size and proportions, but that was about it.
Expect more in a couple of days.

Wow, you're one hell of a talented artist. Thank you for that.

I love that turtle balloon jetpack house thingy!

PS: The iso's are cool and smooth too, there's just not much to say about them yet.

[Ben]

walking poses...also a fullly useable 2k3 sprite, if one were inclined to rig up isometric movement.

[carmen]

gemini!

:3

That'd be sweet to sweet to see an old school iso style rpg. Love the sheet.
maybe a bit more contrast, I had to blow them up to see the shadows really.

great form!

[Ben]

And then I was all like

[carmen]

=3

yeah, a lot easier to see!

[Ben]

Ive got the Sprinting animation done for the base. I think I may tweak a pixel or two in step-depth in some of the motion, but not now.
Coming soon: Jumping, Ladder/rope climbing, crouching, shooting/using item, Slashing, and Arial slashing. I just need to shade and arrange
the poses.




Sorry, no 2X zoom this time.

So Im pretty sure Ive never posted any of my audio loops.
Heres one I just made for a fishing game Im collaborating on with another person over at the Stencyl Beta, for the Game Jams. (cash prizes...heck yes).

Its slow...there is a faster version too. But the slow one gets posted. Making slow loops that are still fun can be tough.

[Ben]

because Im going to make a double dragon clone in stencyl




OH YEAH, I MADE THIS AND IT WORKS RIGHT NOW
http://beta.stencyl.net/games/play.php?gameID=1375

High scores are saved online now. Its mildly buggy and quite basic, but in the future, HNF and I (the dude I made this with) are going to Iron things out and add some more functionality and beefier AI.... Expect this to be a facebook app as well.
