Ok, I'm beginning work on backdrops and level objects for this shmup I'm working on, and I've done a mockup of the elements I'm working on right now, but it looks like the plane and the small chunk of debris are on different depths, what do you think?

EDIT 2:

Some little dead friendly ships to brighten up the atmosphere



I'm just showing one image since they are fairly big, here's links to the old ones:

spaceeey;) they have different light sources? maybe that purple light should hit the ship too...

i think the depth illusion is the side-effect of the debris having a much more detailed and less contrasty shading than the plane's sprite. (not to mention it being a lot darker)

edit: apart from that functionality problem, the pixel job is exquisite. :)

eyecraft: You AMAZE me. I can't believe how awesomely shaded that space debris is. I can't wait to see the mockup done, I'm sure it will look fantastic

Another little update, finishing off the smaller little bits before I get to work on the big momma of it- the backdrop. So some little wrecked ships to intimidate the player, hehehe.

I didn't even notice that the larger chunks were the same at first..

Will the spaceship be able to collide with those asteroids? =D
Looking very nice, no crits from me.

It's funny the atmosphere is actually an epic space battle going on.

I've got big plans for the backdrop.

That's good! I was concerned they would look too repetitive.

Sure will. It's the typical horde of space junk/asteroids being hurled at the player and they have to manouver and shoot their way through

This might take a little more work, but I think you should make one more of each kinda of debree. I will make it look alot better and less repetitive. Other than that, this is absolutly incredible.

For every second spent wondering if you can do something, you could spend 2 seconds doing it.

Sigh you could be right there , so, many, piiiixeeeeeels...

I guess I probably will do at least 2 of each debris, it makes sense, I can tell ingame it would look very repetitive just from this 1 screen, lol.

Nice dithering on everything, but are the things with the yellow blades ships, or debris. Also, it might just be me, but it does look a little repetitave. I think it could look good if you took the largest one and inverted it horizontaly and/or vertically, and then reshaded it, it would look less consistent

They are ships. And yes, I'll be doing more variations of the debris
