That looks awsome, all the graphics for this game are great, I hope the game lives up to the graphics.

I'm sure it will

Wow. How long does it take this guy to kick out backgrounds like that!? Does he base it off of pictures or drawings? Is he for sale? Do you have any coupons?

Really great stuff. Looking forward to the game.

later,

These are coming out extremly fast....they are great...

Matt Brown · Thu 06/02/2003 20:31:16

wowya..I don't think I could tell those apart from FOA..but I just played it.

sorry about my last comment. Bad joke.

m0ds · Thu 06/02/2003 21:06:36

Sweet, thanks, I'll pass on your comments to Misja. BTW, even he doesn't know how he manages to produce them so fast!

Plus, I think he does them as originals - he sketches them and then just magics them up. Of course, he had something to work from for Indy's office and the exterior of Barnett College (which you'll notice is at a different angle so that you don't just think he ripped it!).

Amberle - the fact your name is on the start credits makes it 10 x cooler :p

Maybe I'll trick my sister into playing it with me (using the trickery I used when I got her to play FOA with me except with more trickery because now she has a kid and she's lazy/busy when the kid's asleep) and then when the credits come up she'll be all "What the hell is your name doing in the credits of this fabulous game?" and I can say "Why, I am very important aren't I!".

I doubt it'd go like that, though. I don't think I've ever heard my sister call anything fabulous when she's not making fun of Christopher Lowell. But it'd still be fun.

ratracer · Thu 06/02/2003 21:45:20

It's all been said before, but those bgs are fabulous, awesome, really FOA-like, and that's the best compliment I can give!!!

Just to clear up some of the hazy "how are these pictures done?" issues: I make a pencil sketch (on the patented FoY sketch template TM) - scan it as a 150 DPI greyscale image, stuff it in my patented FoY Photoshop template (TM). Then I draw the major lines, fill in the larger shapes with flat colour or ranges of colour. Next is a prolonged period of pixelbashing to get all the anti-aliasing to look right, finished off with some highlights and shadows. Most pictures take around 4 hours (the office of Dr. Jones was a real monster though, with all the intricate details - and took considerably longer).
Thanks for all the praise :

- I love doing this stuff!

er - m0ds - we are NOT in it for the sex? - damn, there goes another fine plan

Erica McLane · Fri 07/02/2003 11:20:05

Really nice screenshots.

Vel · Fri 07/02/2003 17:34:52

As I said earlier, they are better than the FoA ones.

Helm · Fri 07/02/2003 18:46:00

Great art, but what's with the destructive compression? I take it this was at some point clean pixel art. I'd like to see it like that, to comment more thoroughly. But tell concrats to your artist nevertheless.

Looking forward to it.

Edit: Oh, just read the first page

I understand now. I think some parts are a bit too blurry, but besides that, great art. Good luck.

cornjob · Sat 08/02/2003 01:59:05

Wow. This guy is good. He seems to have this style down cold.

Snake · Sat 08/02/2003 06:02:56

Man, these screens kick ass. That's the kind of artwork I want for EN...to bad I suck rabbit balls.
