@Green - this challenge is perfect for you. You love doing B&W stuff and animations.

I say go for it (doing the challenge that is, not killing yourself [well, you can do that too if you want{you'll have to do that after you enter the challenge though, you can't really enter a challenge if you're dead}])

I just realized that the challenge lacks an "e" at the name. Unless we are supposed to make sprits.

The title is "Black and White Sprite" - check the news post. The only reason it says "sprit" is because longish challenge titles get truncated in the forum.

Hey guys... Maybe this is not the right place, but I'm experiencing this problem while working on the weekly challange...
Is there any way to change the preview's background colour in GraphicsGale? The default one is white and I can't see the difference between the background and the white coloured sections... I've searched in the preference but nothing seems to be useful...

  Hum... Sorry?

Thanks :D Noticed too late that you were also going for a striped shirt.

Basic sprite animation done (at least I'd say so), next on: The attack. Any ideas or critics?
As already said, looks better on a darker theme.

I figured I'd enter my first weekly challenge, so here's a little rough robot thing.


I would REALLY appreciate some C+C.

Thank you, and I most definitly will marry you. =)
 
Update:
Update again:
 
I had got some tips on The Spriter-Resource that the 'wobblyness' of the stick didn't seem to look all that great, so I took it off. Fixed a few other things as well. This piece will most likely not place against all the others, though this challenge is great fun. :)
 
Perhaps I'm done...?

Thanks NBZ!  Your piece is looking pretty nifty, too. :)

Here's the basic wing movement.  I still need to redraw each frame.

Someone told me it looks sort of like a dominatrix (with the mesh legs), so I might change the dithering.  Once again, feedback would be really appreciated.

Oh Boy... Apparently GameMaker 8 no longer saves sprites as .gif, but as .png, so my 95 frame long sprite can only be save as a comic strip of sorts... 95 frames long. Any ideas on how to rescue my 2 hours of tedious work?

Current work. My first really serious pixel animation I've ever done, and rather happy with it. I might add more to it, depends on what I can think of. I might do some shading, but hard to do with only B&W, at least it is for me XD.  Anyway, had alot of fun doing this.

Looks pretty good MrEon, 'cept for the fingers maybe, they look a bit deformed, maybe take a look at Marios fingers for a reference

Yeah, that does bug me a little. *Shrug* I kinda used my old leather work gloves for a reference which have that sort of pinched look. I'll have to work on it.

I have to admit that the hands really look like a spider splicer  However, that wasn't my intention but rather a strange pirate-ghost-like-thing. Spider Splicers got the hooks in their hands, my sprite's hands are the hooks.

I'm stuck with the animation by the way. Never tried to animate something complex like an attack Well, maybe I still manage to finish this..

Posting this here, cause I don't have many answers in my wip topic :

Do you see details that could be improved, things to add, etc ?
Which color of mouth is the most effective ?
(thank you for your help, manu. BTW : I think the cartridges don't need to be bigger than that, don't want them to catch the eye. Thank you anyway).
