Okay, over a 2-3 day period I've been working on the backgrounds and they're done! Imo they turned out pretty nice alone, but as a background they're like keys to a lock! All I need to do now is finish up the cars, tilesets + organic track pieces, and then I'll start looking for a coder! Maybe 2, one for the engine/physics, one for the rest.
Furthermore, here are the pictures.
Cave - Not my favorite, but it's not bad.
Desert - Weird, but pretty cool.
Arctic - This one turned out quite nice, imo.
City - Not one of my favorites. I might redo it.
Forest/woods - I like this one. about 1-2 hours over a one night, one day span.
Meadow - I'm very satisfied with this one. It's pretty, dangit.
Lol I just noticed that 4 pictures have the moon or sun half-shown at the top or corner.
One more note. Today is THE LAST DAY I'm accepting car requests, so look for cool cars and post the ones you have in mind here or in the forums. REMEMBER, May 1st 12:00 AM CST is when it ends, so post while there's still time.
Tank oo.
Edit: It's past April 30 11:59 PM CST so that marks not only May 1st, but also as I've mentioned, the end of requests being accepted. Um... happy May 1st. Also.
(Btw, bumped up the Percentage completed by 5%. had 15%, do the math.)
cool stuff there! the shadows definatly look iffy tho. they look a bit more like someone burned out by the trees and windmill (of cource that might actually fit more with the game)
Sweet, I like the desert one the best. Other cool ones might be a snowy area or city during the day time. Your graphics style is definitely unique to many others
Thanks! My sis got me started and we just learned over the years in our childhood with absolutley no how-to-draw books. She's got a few manga books, I've got some landscaping books.
Btw, that really bright one is sort of a snowy area, but it's more about ice. That city at daytime idea isn't bad at all; I'll consider it!
Oh, okay, I thought it was a cloud level or something. Hey, speaking of having day and night cities, you could have that determined by Real Time clocks, check out what I mean in my last article about changing trees by month http://www.create-games.com/article.asp?id=2002. You can also change stuff by hours, that way the city would change with the time.
