Castle of the Winds is a really really old PG game.
I always thought about a remake, so... here it is! Hope you enjoy.

Oh shit, I loved that game! Way to bring back a load of nostalgia. Nice sprites, too.

If you or anyone else you know is interested in teaming up for a CotW remake project, please let me know. Unfortunately it seems noone managed to accomplish this feat up to now, as if the game's cursed or something. =P

 

By the way, you're brazilian too, right? I wasn't sure, so I wrote in english just in case. =)

 

Toodles!

littlesapphire (Level 5 Rokkyu) @ 11/25/2010 19:54

Yeah, that's some awesome use of colors.  And it's just really well done, period.  I can't help liking that first warrior :D

Nossa, os originais parecem ter sido desenhados por crianças com 4 anos de idade!

Os remakes ficaram ótimos, parabéns!

That is one hell of a killer remake! Great job.


user
yrizoud (Level 6 Aquamarine) @ 11/25/2010 02:27

This is an amazing use of (imo) a difficult palette, I have a million things to learn from this.

I really liked CoW too, back in '95 I made an icon for a friend's character :)

I love pieces that use the mspaint palette so well :D

Man, Castle of the Winds was the shit back in the days. I loved the fighting narratives.

This is amazing stuff. Great job! I'd love to see the rest of the enemies.

Like them color combinations. Good job.

I'm digging the Skeleton, and the Gremlin type character. :]


user
surt (Level 11 Godfather) @ 11/24/2010 19:59

Sweet stuff!

The goblin fighter looks to me more like a plain goblin. Could be bulked up a bit.

Surtur is particularly cool.

CoW is one of my favourites, I replaced all the icons in the executable back in the day but they died with a failed floppy.

Nice work with those nasty colors! :) The last image makes we wonder if you couldn't have varied the bkg on more of them?
