I bought Shadow of the Colossus today. That's a big thing for me, because I never buy video games. In fact, I've bought a grand total of about two this entire year. Anyways, that's a really awesome game. It's got to be one of the most artistic games I've ever played- and climbing those gigantic monsters is just plain awe-inspiring. Anyways, if you haven't played it, it's definitely worth it, unless you don't have a PS2. If you're skeptical that video games can have artistic or even literary value, you should also give it a try.
Anyways, I've been working on a new project for a couple of weeks now. It's far more ambitious than anything I've ever done (it'll be my first full-length game- if I finish it), and it's actually shaping up pretty nicely. It's an adventure exploration type game, set in a castle-type place, sort of like Soldexus, with a whole bunch of mechanical stuff and… yeah, it should be pretty cool. I don't have a demo you can play yet (though I'm hoping to release a fairly lengthy one soon) but I do have these fine screenshots you can stare at.
Fun, right? :D
The game looks cool. I dont really like SotC.
I think the robots are too dark… try using the same palette as the laser shooting thing in the last picture.
The pallete for the laser-shooter is actually darker than that of the regular robots; the background is just a LOT darker.
Anyways, it looks a lot better in motion; it's not nearly so hard to see. Although my monitor is pretty bright, so I'm not sure what it'll be like for other people. I guess I could make the enemies a bit brighter. We'll see.SotC owns.
Those screen shots look pretty sweet. I like the graphics style. Good luck with it =)
What Kaz said.
That orange thing looks pretty.
It looks nice, but you need to make your background and foreground contrast more. It will look alot better if you do.
I might get a ps2 just for SOTC. Looks awesome!
It's probably worth it. That game is absolutely amazing.
