I've recently been playing around with sprites for characters & portraits, and i'm extremely happy with the results! Because of this, i wanted to do a WHOLE town makeover, to give a different feel to the game for when i'm feeling bored. My go-to idea, was Apocalyptic themes (specifically, Zombie!) I know exactly how I want the maps for the towns & such to work, but i'm a little stuck on the monsters for the caves... I figured slimes could be toxic ooze, and mummies/shadow-things could be zombies... maybe make the duggy an arm digging up out of the ground to grab at you? (i don't think there's a lot of room for that kind of edit though in the sprite sheet) I'd love to hear any ideas or suggestions pertaining to this
Oooh zombies! Yes!! I'm a pretty big Resident Evil fan so most of my ideas are coming from there xD I think the arm for the duggies could work, or even just a hand. All the standing enemies (Stone Golem, Skeleton, Shadow Brute, Mummy and Void Spirit) could be different looking zombies. For the slimes, maybe the leeches from Resident Evil 0 could work: The Serpent could be a mini Novistador from Resident Evil 4. [/center] Giant Spider for the Rock/Lava Crabs. The bugs and/or Cave Flies could be crows or Giant Moths. The grubs could be mini Gulp Worms. Maybe one of the enemies could be a rat? The Squid Kid could be a big floating eye? I'll keep thinking for other possibilities xD I was actually thinking about making some portrait/sprite mods for horror and/or Resident Evil heroes. Such as: Penny = Resident Evil 3 Jill Leah = Claire Redfield Maru = Sheva from RE5 Haley = Adult Sherry from RE6 Abigail = Maybe Ada? Alex = Chris Redfield (oldschool Chris, not roided-Chris) Sam = Leon Elliot = Billy from RE0 Harvey = ?? Sebastian = ?? Haven't thought of any others. Anywho it'll be really neat to see what you've come up with the portrait/sprites and see your ideas for the town!
