Title: RPG for Nspire: Sprites
Post by: LDStudios on May 26, 2014, 02:40:20 pm
Lately I have been working on a full scale medieval RPG for Nspire. So far the game engine is nearly complete. The player can walk around, read signs, and speak with villagers. I have yet to complete the battle engine, shops, and menus.

Here is a screenie of the gameplay:

The biggest roadblock I can see right now is all of the sprites that have to be made.
All the sprites I have so far are either made in charas, or ripped from Legend of Zelda.


Spritesheet:

(http://img.ourl.ca/sprites-1.jpg)



Here is a list of the sprites that need to be made:
Spoiler For Spoiler:


MAP SPRITES
  • Characters
  • Fence
  • Bushes
  • Path
  • Trees
  • Houses (wood, stone, door, window, roof)
  • Water
  • Dock
  • Villagers (about 15)
  • Soldier
  • Rock (Mountain Side)
  • Cave Entrance
  • Chest (Opened and Closed)
  • Fountain
  • Statue
BATTLE SPRITES
  • Character (Sword Attack, Magic Attack, Use Item)
  • Thief (Sword Attack)
  • Mage (Magic Attack)
  • Knight (Sword Attack)
  • Final Boss (Sword Attack, Magic Attack, Use Item)


I know that this is a very ambitious list, and so I am asking for help.
If you want to help me with the art, please send me a PM, with what you want to contribute, and I will let you know the size and style needed.
Contributers will:And most of all, be able to contribute to the final result, and get it out as soon as possible.

This definitively looks awesome. Sadly I don't have any sprite handy since they're all 8x8 in my case. Hopefully someone can help. Else, I guess you could just use sprites from the pre-made RPG Maker sprite sets, although you would need to give credits to Enterbrain. 

I might have some water stuff, but I'M unsure.

Uh, that looks very nice! :D I was thinking about making a RGP too, but more like a roguelike game... So if you need any support in programming feel free to ask, I'd love to see a RPG on the nspire!
Btw: You get better Screenshot quality if you save them in .png format ;)

I think it was partly because you are hardly active anymore :P (but again LDStudios hasn't been posting much either lately)

Unfortunately, I still need all of the listed sprites
Thanks to everyone who has offered to help!

Were you able to use my water texture, or do you need me to make a new one?
Title: Re: RPG for Nspire: Sprites

Oooh that looks better now. Now if it could use some custom sprites (even if not necessarily as great as Zelda's) it would be nice since it's more original. :)

Maybe if I have time later, for now I'm just concerned about getting a decent sprite sheet finished.

Anyways, battle sprites are coming along nicely.

Quick and dirty gif animation requested and delivered


EDIT : fixed a transparency error

Damn, that looks epic. O.O

Yeah, it looks quite fine, you should post the set and a better animation on forums like wayofthepixel (http://wayofthepixel.net).

No, I probably shouldn't :P
It's actually based heavily off of Elliwood's battle animation from Fire Emblem, so the design isn't entirely my own. I reworked a lot of the way he looked, but the base of the animation isn't mine.
Anyways, thanks for the .gif, I can't wait to see how this looks in the game!

EDIT: Here's a sprite set for magic use. It will make more sense when combined with magic animations :P

I like how this character turned out. Also for some reasons it reminds me Albator (Captain Harlock). :P

I'm still looking desperately for tree and house sprites. I would copy some from the internet but I haven't found an images that were a good pixel scale, and also large enough for me to copy. Remember, 16x16 tiles, .png. Thanks.

Post by: aeTIos on June 13, 2014, 05:18:29 pm
What size should they be? I made a little design for houses a while back, lemme see if I can dig it out.
Title: Re: RPG for Nspire: Sprites
Post by: LDStudios on June 13, 2014, 06:41:20 pm
Tiles are 16x16, my thought for houses was to have different building tiles (wood, stone, arch, top of door, bottom of door, roof tiles etc)
Title: Re: RPG for Nspire: Sprites
Post by: aeTIos on June 13, 2014, 06:42:36 pm
Aah ok :) I'll see if I have anything lying around.
Title: Re: RPG for Nspire: Sprites
Post by: LDStudios on June 14, 2014, 04:47:30 pm
Here's a more descriptive list of what I need for buildings.
(In both wood and stone): Plain block, Arch (left), Arch (right), Slant (Left), Slant (Right), Slant (center), top of door, bottom of door, window, roof tiles (for wooden buildings only), crenelations (for stone buildings only). I'd also like a gate that could fit with an archway.

I'll see what I can do.
