Found no idea to join PJ challenge this week so I decided to give pixelation challenge a try.

Dodonpachi style enemy spaceship.

That game is awesome. But this is even more so. :D

Oh, its definetely a design choice. And both ways make sense depending on the project and the coding. Here it was a standalone exersice so straight mirroring seems unneeded. Anyhoo, great topic of discussion. You two make me wanna make a shmup mockup, and I think I will :D

It's fine to mirror lighting as part of traditional game art. It adds some charm and authanticity.

This is really spot on for the DDP style. I was almost ready to rip out the ROM and find something to accuse you of. Nothing has better pixel art than the shmups from the 90's.

Jal, now that makes sense to me, I was not thinking about the lighting.

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 6/11/2007 7:40:06 PM
It's true that planes, cars etc are mirrored that's fine. I meant the lighting not shape or volume. Even a little tweak here and there in the lighting removes the 'only half was done' look. It's just my personal preference which takes nothing away from your ship which I love, faved and gave the most possible dots I could, except one for the mirrored lighting :p

Just beautifull. Great job !

Thanks for the comments!

ceddo & Setzer, true, I added smooth gradients here and there while original DDP enemies don't have any.

jalonso, they are all mirrored. Anyway why care about the mirrorness :) Planes are mirrored, cars are mirrored... Why shouldn't anyone mirror them? ;)

ptoing, they are just adding a minor difference. they are still mirrored.

Beautiful space ship, I love the design, it looks so smooth and has a lot of details!

Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 6/11/2007 12:18:41 AM
Yup! I'm liking this alot! Nice one

Omenith (Level 3 Stalker) at 6/10/2007 6:09:51 PM
I'd say its more Dondonpachi inspired rather than Dondonpachi style. Still awesome. (Agree with Ceddo)

ptoing (Level 7 Underboss) at 6/10/2007 4:57:37 PM
@gil: no :P

Gil (Level 4 Lieutenant) at 6/10/2007 4:11:13 PM
All Dodonpachi ships are mirrored :)

Setzer (Level 8 Cannibal) at 6/10/2007 4:10:05 PM
DDP has almost no AA and looks very rough, and this is very smooth; not that its a bad thing, but it might be a little out of place in DDP.

still, I would procreate with it.

Amorphous (Level 3 Sergeant) at 6/10/2007 3:20:30 PM
Very detailed and shiny! I especially like the wings and the red and blue on them.

Inferno.Fighter.IV (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/10/2007 3:13:36 PM
Awesome job! The detailing is so great!

skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 6/10/2007 2:49:16 PM
I love these. They're all so detailed!

d-p (Level 10 Maniac) at 6/10/2007 2:34:33 PM
Wow thats an cool ship, love to see it animated..

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 6/10/2007 2:30:12 PM
Even though you mirrored it. I just have to........fave eet!

ceddo (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 6/10/2007 2:14:27 PM
Beautiful! I saw the challenge on pixelation - this one might have a slightly more complex and smooth shading style than the real ones, but awesome nevertheless.
