東方意地奴 ~ Touhou Ijiyatsu - Monarchly Moron (Ver. 1.00c)

[Rikter]

So is Onthenet in this or not? Also just asking but do we really want Embodiments popping up in Phantasm or whatevet its called now seeing as it already appears to be a boss spam?

Not that I'll ever unlock Phantasm

[Cadmas]

Not that I'll ever unlock Phantasm

This so many times over.

[CK Crash]

Not that it's hard to manually unlock it in the script file if you're so desperate.

And yeah, I'm probably going to be in at least for the coding aspect, possibly as an Embodiment. If there is anything that can be coded now, I would be glad to start on it.

[Mounting Jaggis]

I used the airbrush to add shades to the non black areas of the sprite. It also made it a bit darker

[Drake]

Rikter does bring up an interesting point, as enemies aren't going to be popping up everywhere there won't really be any embodiments to use. Or at least, organizing the stage will be a wreck. Bear with me, I'm just typing as I brainstorm. In no way am I trying to just fully organize the stage immediately.

Enemies
Death Fairy
Midboss
Enemies
Death Fairy
Enemies
Death Fairy
Midboss
Boss

Or something...? The enemies before each Death Fairy could drop enough for an Embodiment and each Death Fairy could drop enough as well. This would mean hectic Embodiment chaining while shit is flying at you everywhere, and 6 pieces dropped, enough for a life and a bomb*. If the midbosses also give life+bomb piece, life+bomb piece and two life pieces respectively this makes two extra lives it makes 6/7 which seems like a fine number... derp

Somebody else have any ideas?

*(Not sure if I mentioned this; I calculated how Embodiments should be spread out throughout stages and I figured life=4 and bomb=2 would be a balanced idea, I'll post what I figured when I find my notes again)

[Mounting Jaggis]

Maybe we can have 10 stages instead of 6?

[Sapz]

Maybe we can have 10 stages instead of 6?

Ten levels sounds like too many, I think... it'd be murder to both create them and to actually 1cc the game. :V

[Nine West]

This.

Don't expand an already big project any bigger when you still don't know what to expect.

[Nobu]

Yeah, 6 stages + an Extra + Phantasm + potentially up to 4 difficulties... add 4 more stages on top of that and we might as well just say we're making Duke Nukem Forever.  :V

[Cadmas]

Could you have a separate section for the Embodiments that are just single stage things?
And then add them after the game is done with patchs?

[Mounting Jaggis]

We need to do the same thing as ZUN to finish this game, let's all drink beer when we work on this

[Slaves]

:I

[Drake]

Embodiments and the scoring system will probably get done separately, and after the basics of the game are finished.

[Mounting Jaggis]

:I

Fuck, I forgot about you, we won't be able to finish this game for at least 6 or more years

[Slaves]

Fuck, I forgot about you, we won't be able to finish this game for at least 6 or more years

rats! foiled again!

[Suikama]

I used the airbrush to add shades to the non black areas of the sprite. It also made it a bit darker

Eh too dark I think. It looks like there's a shadow cast over her or something.

[Mounting Jaggis]

Before:

After:


Good enough?

[Zengar Zombolt]

Oh gods
I guess that with this Suikama will be able to get to work on ZengarA And B?

[Suikama]

Before:

After:


Good enough?

Yep. Now all it needs is some more detail and some antialiasing and it would be perfect :V

Oh gods
I guess that with this Suikama will be able to get to work on ZengarA And B?

If I didn't have a test tommorow and an assignment due Sat I could. :V

I'll still probably work on it a bit tommorow anyways.

Uh also I don't have any Zengar B sprites :V

[Zengar Zombolt]

Who cares. Whoo, progress!

[Gpop]

Can't wait for my sprites :V

[Suikama]

Can't wait for my sprites :V

If you can't wait, make them yourself! :V

[Slaves]

oh fuck, so i don't have to make the sprites?

awesome. because i couldn't do them to save my life.

do you mind doing all of them, Skye? if you just make an outline of them i can color and detail them.

[Suikama]

Uh but ZUN's boss sprites are just shrunken version of his drawings (except in PoFV/StB). So it might be a bit strange(and unTouhou like?) if the cutins looked different from the boss sprites :/

[Slaves]

i.. guess i could do those. i'd just have to have a moving/casting motion, right?

also, Nue's sprite is different from her cutin.

[Mounting Jaggis]

I used the Dodge effect so the coat isn't completely 0R 0G 0B. The I used AA.

What Suikama said, maybe I can make the playable characters. Since boss characters you can simply tilt or rotate body parts for animation. If you want, give me the cutins for some of them and I'll make the rest of the sprites.

[Suikama]

also, Nue's sprite is different from her cutin.

She's still ZUNart though

[Slaves]

once i get around to doing more cutins, sure.

also

since you don't have photoshop.(right?)

i could make them pretty and sparkly.

[Nobu]

Wow Skye, nice job on the Zengar sprite. Do we need a different sprite for Zengar B? Don't the options just change?

i.. guess i could do those. i'd just have to have a moving/casting motion, right?

also, Nue's sprite is different from her cutin.

You wouldn't have to draw all the frames though, right? You might just be able to draw the cut-in plus a casting animation for who needs it, and just make the frames of animation by modifying the cutin after you've shrunk it down into sprite form.  It looks like that's what ZUN does at least.

[Mounting Jaggis]

Yeah that would be helpful on the quality, since it's the first time I'm using tools that are not in Paint. If the latest version of Zengar isn't good enough I can give you the unmodified version. By the way can you put the Zengar sprites in a Touhou game to see if the animation matches up?
