Topic awaiting preservation: Testing new sig

All the discussions of pixel art made me try my hand at it. As you can see, I kept it pretty simple since this is my first real attempt. What thinks ye?

haha i love this one! great concept!

Ramasax: Wonderfull!
Isn't 41Kb a little big ?

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

And I'd add another one of those platforms he ends up on at the start, and have him jump from that to the first block

Yeah, I wanted to add a lot more with this one, had the little red ball, spinning platform, and a not very good snake, but it got a little large.

The palette is set at 32. 16 seems to be the absolute minimum, but that only shaves off 2k. Guess I could knock off a few frames, as I planned to tweak the animation a bit anyway.

Skarjj: Yeah, another platform would do nicely.

Stay tuned.

*big smile*

Qbert!
Now that was quite some time ago...

I love it!!!!

AAAHHH!!! I need sound!!! hah, awesome.

Ok, here is the revised version, size cut in half.

That's great Ramasax, very nice work!

Might help to shorten the time from when he lands on the first Block to when it lights up, would make it flow better IMO.

Would look cool to make him phase in/out at the beginning and end of the animation to make it look like he's teleporting??

Very neat sig, Ramasax. Keep pushing those pixels

nice sig, good job, i really like it

Snookumz: You are right, I did optimize the animation a bit more and shortened the pauses, but if you remember, the squares didn't light up until he jumped off them, so it may seem off if you are expecting them to light up right when he lands. I least I think that's how it worked, been a long time since I've played this one.

I think with those changes, this one is complete. This is probably the first sig I have made that I actually am happy with.

Anyone ever done a donkey kong sig in here? I am having too much fun to stop with the video games just yet.


EDIT: Figured why start another thread. Here's a quick simple one I did.

Both your siggs are sweet. Like the second sig! Really neat idea with the fireworks (?) in the background.

The "simple" sig is clean and pleasant.
The first one is better now. If I remember well, the twirly thingy was spinning when teleporting Qbert!

Mathieu "POÏ" HENRI

Yeah, but the twirly things spun throughout the entire game, and that added 10k to the file size. I think I'll leave it be now before I screw it up

very nice, im wondering if someone could help me make smoother animations as you did (i use ps & image ready 7)
