TL;DR, OP is asking for someone to sprite for him. Donate your time to a mod in need.

Give me examples where I trip up, or things in the old style that you'd like me to learn from.

Things that are good:
Dropship- nostalgic enough no one cares that it's blocky and all white.
Riftfire effect and gate effect- I think they're awesome and no one's complained about them so far.

Things that need work:
The actors, mainly. Specifically, they need either more or less detail. To quote myself since edits get overlooked a lot...

Maybe give them simple "shells" outside, which easily break away to somewhat more complex insides? Dunno what you can do with the guns, though...

Can you animate guns? Like, give permanent little licks of riftfire around the riftfire gun, little minigates opening around the gate opener? Then you could have simple guns but still have them look extradimensional.


- specifically, I was thinking having the bodies under the simple white shells look sort of like motherboards, black with white detailing and lines.

darwinia looked so much better than this ♥♥♥♥, and what made darwinia look good can be replicated on CC in a less quality. it still doesn't ♥♥♥♥ go with CC because CC's combat is placed in a real universe, not virtual reality.

READ THE ♥♥♥♥ THREAD.

OP SAID HE CANT SPRITE WORTH ♥♥♥♥

JESUS ♥♥♥♥ CHRIST COULD YOU BE ANY DENSE



sprites like these are disgraceful to the eyes, unless the op is retarded he can try harder.

As a really fast, crude example...

So... less complex, sorta cross between stick figure and rayman on the outside, but more complex hints on the inside.

I like the Darwinians idea. Make them into an actor and give them their blippy grenades and green lasers and their bleepy voices that sound like they are saying "left right left right" when they march. If not a playable actor then perhaps a device that spawns 4 or 5 uncontrollable actors (team 3 or something) that can pass through each other and sort of mill around shooting anyone who gets close (Like in the game)

You can make them shorter than other actors to make them extra huggable cute XD

You sir, have created one of my favorite mods and I salute you!
I hope you continue to work on this mod and make it better!
Great timing too, I'm on a nostalgic 8-bit craze.

Hmmmm....

Sorry about the whole not updating thing. I'm busy with the Crow, and I'm still having trouble making the sprites look like the good kind of ugly.

Very good mod.
I've been thinking about doing something pixel-low-res-ish like this, but that will probably turn out quite differently (as in worse).
Anyways, dld and much approved of.
