I have some new assignments!

Matt - I emailed you some items that we need icons for
Lily - I couldn't find your email address, if anyone knows it I would
like to email you some characters that we will be implementing as
classes; we need sprites for them
Hannah - Can you let me know when you start working on the buttons so
I can have an idea of what they will look like?

I feel like I'm forgetting something, I'm sure it will come to me
later!

That being said, if anyone feels bogged down or needs some extra help
just post here, we're all in this together! /end sappy

BLUH

I don't have much to report. For now, here's three icons I just did.

Feelers:

I'll try and spend more time on these icons over the weekend. I've
been kinda sick, yada yada. Assuming that new lab we got is open
anytime, I could probably also do stuff in there on Mondays and
Wednesdays around noon.

Anyway, I'm on my way to UNO now, people who get email alerts on their
phones.

yeah, so I need some art assets.

Dr. Woodchuck, the bear and those bunnies would be really high on the
list.

Matt, when you're doing the sprites, make Dr. W and the bunnies about
the same size as jack or smaller.
The bear big, ~150-200 pixels big.

Brittany, if you could make some sprites of those mobs you thought of
before.

Just don't make them too big, ~64-150 pixels in width/height I can
work with.

For now, I'll try to use your sketches as place-holder art.

If you can also get any animations in, don't forget basic attack animations!

Those icons look perfect, they are exactly what I was picturing in my
head. I'm trying to make some sprites right now for the classes Kyle,
and I am almost finished with the syringe meter thingy. Yeah! Kyle, do
you want me to also make the character classes to go with the sprites
I am making or did you want to do it?

Alright, here's the designs I did for Dr. Woodchuck, the bear, and a
rabbit.

http://i51.tinypic.com/11malaf.jpg

I'm working on the sprites for a basic attack for Jack right now, but
does anyone else want to do one or more of these sprites, or at least
some kind of placeholder for the demo? It would be a huge help to me,
especially if we want to get these things together by Thursday. As far
as I'm aware, this is our top-priority at the moment in terms of art.

Here is a quick photoshop of the syringe (I know it looks like crap).
Is this what we want the sanity meter to look like, and if so I will
make a much more polished version of it. Otherwise, Chris, let me know
what you had in mind.

Matt, I can make a placeholder bear sprite for you for the demo, but I
think for the finished game it would look better if you did it so that
the characters are all in your style :) Also, if you happen to have a
spare minute can you remake one of the item icons with a black outline
to see what it would look like? If not it's cool.

Hm, guess I should have put the link...

I just did another quick sprite for the bear. Will this size work for
now? If it's good I will do the rest of the poses too.

Matt: Awesome.
Brittany: The links aren't working for me.

This is pretty epic teamwork for starting five weeks ago. Keep it up.

Doh, I forgot to change the sharing settings. Here is the syringe:

and the bear sprite:

http://tinyurl.com/36rsqhz

I made the bear sprite on the larger size of the range you suggested
because I think he should be a lot bigger than jack. It won't be a
problem if I need to resize him.

Ok, placeholder sprites coming up.

Jack's idle pose in battle:

Jack's attack:
http://i54.tinypic.com/wqzozm.png

I can work on the rabbit next. I could probably finish that this
evening. I know we need battle sprites for it, but should I make an
overworld sprite for it too?

Also, what's the status on Lily in regards to character stuff?

Wow, those look great! I have been trying to get in touch with lily to
find out what she has ready for us, no luck. I'm going to try and make
some sprite tonight for some of the classes I made, but I think we are
making good progress.

I remade the icons for the feelers with a black outline. How's this
look compared to doing it without outlines?

Ok, I just kinda realized it's really hard to gauge that on a white
background. So I put them both over a blue background just to have
some sort of contrast.

Personally, I prefer the one without an outline. It looks better to
me.

So here's a summary of the latter half of the meeting, since Chris
wanted me to put it up.

Overworld sprites for characters and monsters are going to be 96x96,
and the sprites in battle should be a bit larger (I've got Jack right
now at 128x128, but it's better to draw it bigger than we need it and
scale down than for us to have to scale up). The overworld sprites can
be more simplistic, while the battle sprites need to be more detailed
to fit the level of detail the battle screens have (as opposed to the
main map). Basically, they need to be more detailed than those
placeholders for Jack's attacks I posted above, that's for sure.

Charles and Hannah, you two should compare notes on what you guys are
doing for backgrounds and maps, so we can get the styles to compliment
each other.

If I'm forgetting anything art related, go ahead and post it, Chris.

I did two sketches of ideas I had for characters from the character
bio document, and Manders said I should post them here.

Those sketches look great, do you think you will have time to make
sprites of them by the end of term? I know exams are coming up soon so
if you think you will be busy, let me know.

Also, here are two more mobs I came up with, I'm just showing one
sprite each for them for placeholder art and am working on their
attacks/idle/etc:
