    Well next thing I'm going to do is the weird glowy bridge of coolness. And I don't really see how that's possible without gradients.

    EDIT: Added orby bridge. And thanks for letting me know how to do that. Below.

    Thinking about it now. Labyrinth Zone did an effective way of giving the sand stone sprites volume with it's chipped corners. Maybe something like this could be applied to the edges or even little triangles imprinted into the faces of the stone.

    Don't know if it would work. They were just some random brainstorm ideas.

    I like what I'm seeing. The moving highlights on the edges are subtle but work very well with the piece. I would suggest picking up an APNG maker as they're not hard to find, are typically simple to use, and won't produce visual eyesores.

    For everyone else: this is a total concept and ideas thread. The staff isn't going to shoot you down for coming up with something particularly outlandish, provided it's markedly related to the project and its goal (though I would appreciate it if people would stop asking what characters we'll be including since that's been answered many times).

    Well thank you for saying you liked it and for telling me how to put it in a post. Though now I just have to learn how to use imageshack.

    I haven't really had any time to work on my art at present. And yes it usually looks ALOT better than that terrible gif. I haven't a clue where to get an apng maker or how I would go about getting and using one. Though at least I have firefox so they actually DO animate for me.

    Will try and get some more art done asap.

    There's a plug-in for Firefox called APNG Editor that you can use. You just place the frames into it and specify the delay time for each frame. It's pretty easy to use.

    I see... Would you know where I could get it? Or how if that previous question was really stupid?

    Use Japng Editor. It's quicker and easier to use than the Firefox plugin.

    Just a thought, considering this:

    Other than the blocks breaking may I suggest some form of dirt clumps as well? I think it is needed for HD.

    Great idea; I can imagine it as some dirt and soil shooting out with the blocks, kind of like what happens when an animal is digging a hole and tossing the soil high up into the air.


    I could like to see a mockup of it in action here too.

    Use the link Cerulean Nights provided. I would've linked to that myself but I forgot about it.

    We're already working on something extremely similar! There's no way we were just going to have static tile chunks break off exactly like the original.

    Here's a concept for the CPZ tube juice.

    Is it really that time again?

    A better version, notice now the lavender in it, and the overall darker tone. If some Navier-Stokes could be applied to something like this, it would be good. Really good.

    I'll try to actually write a little demo program to do something like this.

    Kinda lame, for I didn't go all out on the specks. As for the fluid? Just some Perlin Noise.

    I like it, but I worry that it moves too slow for the player to even notice and appreciate it.

    The same thing, but sped up.
    NOTE: THIS IS THE SAME EXACT ONE, JUST SPED UP. THE OLD ONE IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE

    I don't know about this. I fear a very intelligent rant from another member as to why this doesn't work may happen soon.
