Red Space Monkey Contest Entry - The Throgs

I give the developers of Starbound permission to use these ideas, even if I won't win. If you choose to draw inspiration from my entry or add parts of it into the game, please notify me, that's all I ask. Thank you in advance! ​

I freaking love their powerforks and the whole concept presentation is well-made.

 

Thank you. I really love how the forks came out too. Maybe, if I get bored other the next weeks, I will add a vehicle and other weaponry.

 

Oh yes, please do. This concept sure have a lot of potential to be a Dev's Pick. Keep up the good work!

 

Well, seems like i got bored quicker than I thought. Here's an updated version with the mentioned frying pan and a vehicle. I also fixed the shading of the throg and thinned the blue lines a bit more.

 

RSM, this is really cool.

 

Nice work here.

 

such presentation!

 

Red Space Monkey... I'd say it was more of a Red Space Pig! Alright, jokes on your name aside this looks to be a good entry, very detailed and it seems familiar. Reminds me a little of Eggman to be honest .

 

I had a red monkey as avatar first, but he looked kinda awkward...So now he got replaced with a throg. =D

Thank you, I hope to improve it a little more till the end of the contest. Some tuning needs to be done here and there. ^^

 

Great pixel art you put my entry to shame

 

Haha I like it! great pixel art! I need to take some pointers from you! I would love to see these as NPCs in the game!

 

It's not all about the visual aspect, creativity and an original concept is worth something too. So don't be demotivated, take your time to work on your entry, no reason to hurry.

 

One word. EPIC

That must of taken you god knows how long. I like it anyway
Seriously, it's amazing dude, one of my favs!

 

Honestly, it was done rather quick. I was very motivated and inspired, so I guess this somehow gave me a great boost. ^^

 

Mine took me 30-60 mins

Then again you must be some talented professional! Seriously It's amazing quality and idea. Props to you sir!

 

I'm rather new to pixel art, but I have much experience with graphic software in general, so this helped me big time. But I'm far from being a professional, but I'm really proud how this came out. ^^ Stop making me blush.

 

I mean what I say. It's amazing. For a newbie pixel artist. (Much like myself) Since you described yourself as one ^_^

Keep it up bucko!

 

Took the time to read this now. Is absolutely brilliant and quite funny. If this were a public voting contest, you'd probably have my vote.

 

I kinda figured the thing in your avatar is what you made. =P Definitely a fantastic spriting job, you have some real talent with it. I like the idea of having an intelligent race of pigmen, especially since pigs are highly intelligent anyway.
