Hey, This could be a nice enemy design for Wonderbros ! Or was that already your intention ?
Love the color used in the explosions. Works really well.
This is great. When I watched the WIP for this, I loved every new update and it kept getting better and better. :)
I love this! The style and character design are excellent, and the explosion colors are just drool-worthy (I'm SOOO steeling those colors for future reference). Next game I make should be a shooter... or a horror/maze.. or a barbaric hack-n-slash.. DAAAMN - too many ideas, TOO MUCH WANT!: )
Cool deal. I think that it could use a bit of polish though. Also, the explosion is pretty heavily referenced from Jad's explosion over at pixelation, yeah?
I would like to see a smoother animation and a larger exclamation on the turn of the robot. But I loved it, faved.
A little more time in between the end of the animation and the beginning of the next would be nice, but fantastic job. I love the colors and the way he turns as hes being hit.
That's quite well done. I like the spinning motion and the colors used in the explosion. Great!
The only thing to improve it would be to add more frames to make it more fluid, but it's pretty good as is.
I could tell that this was yours as soon as I saw the preview. Great job.
I like that you said animootions.
I like the colors.
Awesome... the way the character turns while hit it's outstanding...
O_O Holy crap!! This animation is just mind blowing! This has to be my new favorite animation on here. 7/6
Fantastic! A VERY dynamic death animation, complimented by some great explosion effects!
Awesome! I remember seeing this on Pixelation a while ago. You got a sweet style!
Nice explosions, love how they turn pruple, the smokey stuff dissapears a tad bit too fast.
@Doppleganger: I'm actually studying that explosion of Jad's (and this one, and several other really 'tight, clean' explosions) before my next round of attempts at making explosions; honestly this explosion of 1UPs has pretty much nothing in common, except the unorthodox idea of using purple. It truly doesn't look cribbed at all, and here's jad's for comparison: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v490/jadmadeyes/Splosion.gif
I do think it's probably "inspired" by that clever idea of using purple instead of brown in the color ramp, but that kind of cross-pollination is a very good thing. Hopefully this comment isn't seen as confrontational, since I admire you and your work; I just think it's important for people to feel comfortable borrowing the most general ideas, since it moves the field forward.
