New game project - need help! 2007-10-05 05:38:42

Alright, so I'm designing an advanced tactical fighting game that'll be in an anime style (possibly)which is of a similar genre to DBZ (modern world martial arts with special chi powers that have massive effects).

We had someone to do the art, but now he left, so if I can't find someone to take over then I'll be doing the art (see below for what kind of trouble that means) So I come before you masters of two dimenional world building and ask if someone out there can either (a) teach me how to make sprites well or (b) contribute some art to the project (preferred option).

For more information about the project you can view this thread.

Also, in case you're wondering, we're working on the pre-alpha release now. For this release we need 2-5 character models (really just 2), a single background and a title screen.

We also need the following animations for each character:
Attacks:
Quick left punch,
Quick right punch (optional)
Strong punch,
Forwards leap,
Backwards leap (or a univeral leap that can be used for forwards and backwards)
Forwards leaping charge,
Backwards dodge (or a reuse of the backwards leap)
Block,
Absorb (braces himself to take a blow - either crosses arms over body like in DBZ, or clenches his fists to harden his body, or something like that)
Wounded (ie. character getting hit)
Death animation,
Victory animation (optional)

thanks in advance,
~TP

i dont believe you have appropriate skills to program a game, first show us a sample of your ability and we can talk then

I stopped reading at this point. Yet another game in another tired shitty genre 10-year-olds like.

I hoped the art would be better, so I skimmed down.
And I am met by a monstrosity of flash scribbles.

Have fun making your hilariously bad game, sir.

you're right - i don't have the skill to program the game. That's why I'm working with a programmer (CtG) who does.

Mr. Lizard - It is perfectly obvious that you are superior that me in every way. In fact, I shudder in the mere presence of greatness such as yourself. Why must you lower yourself from your might and loftiness to send out harsh words to a lowly peasant such as myself?

Couple of things:

1 - This is not appropriate for the art forum, keep it in Flash.
2 - You will not get a halfway decent animator when you offer nothing in return.
