Another enemy from my video game project, Skeletroids. It's really hard to make creatures with Skulls for faces look like they're alive - any tips? :^)

GREAT CHAR! GREAT ANIMATION! FAV, thank you!

Scruffs (Level 7 Assassin) @ 6/16/2006 19:31

just an idea, maybe make his eyes glow bright every once in a while

Scruffs (Level 7 Assassin) @ 6/16/2006 12:08

wow this is great, and great name too, faved

BlackDragon (Level 11 Godfather) @ 6/16/2006 11:01

Thats sweet, I love the bouncy movement.

Also nice charactor design, as kennethfejer said. He does look very alive.

Larwick (Level 8 Tengu) @ 6/16/2006 09:54

Awesome dude, i think the funky animation gives the character plenty of life. However i see compared to your smaller skeletoid sprite this one doesnt seem as smooth, perhaps add a few more frames or speed up the framerate. Great work though.

Kennethfejer (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 6/16/2006 09:52

great character design, love him!
the animation is nice too

zAk (Level 3 Stalker) @ 6/16/2006 08:27

bravo - beautiful piece - is he hypnotized? Anyways - bravo

glassy glaze (Level 3 Corporate Drone) @ 6/16/2006 08:14

I think that this IS alive!

maybe you should anim the red eyes like he's looking around... or like they're becoming brighter...
... or better I should shut up!

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) @ 6/16/2006 08:09

I like this guy. The skull is awesome. I find with "bones" the best way to give them life and expressions is to incorporate bugs/worms which can give a sense of expression in their movement. Say a worm coming out of the eye sockets can be a substitute for eye movements. This may be too small for that, but sharing anyways.
