I was thinking about giving it a shot, but now I know, I stand no chance

Not sure if improving my spriting skills is necessary because Big Brother already does all the art for our games.

Here goes:

[Mr Jake]

thnx for compliment Largo. that manga was done from scratch (my first entirely computer done) in two hours, drawing and colouring. its not bad to enter just for fun (as i did) since choice is great - character wearing a hat :) hehe
btw blackbird keep ur letters small...

Since this is a sprite jam.. Does anyone agree that more actual Sprites should be drawn.. That anime girl is cute and good and all.. But it's not pixelated like REAL , old skool sprites... I just want to see more of THAT.. But you can still do what you want to, as long as it meets the requirements.. i didn't mean to start a debate.

agreed, I dont think vector and what not should be allowed either :/

[viktor]

who said that they have to be old school
opo said that there are no restrictions

EDIT:

What do you mean by vector?

[Privateer Puddin']

woah, a sprite is a sprite, be it pixel art or high colour non pixel art.. as long as it meets any rules (like colour or size limit) then it should be treated on it's artistic quality and on it's idea, not whether you think it should be done in a different style

[Mr Jake]

ths comp was , iirc, originally for pixel pushers to show their stuff, but vector has become incorperated, that is what LGM means I think, thats what I mean.

Hell, if Im wrong just say and I can go stand over there instead

[Redwall]

What do you mean by vector?

Vector drawings, drawings that don't use pixels and thus can be scaled, and edited easily, as well as being much smaller. Generally used in Flash and other such programs.

[Al_Ninio]

Here's me giving you the finger

[Gregjazz]

But this isn't titled "Old Skool Sprite Jam", just "Sprite Jam", and there's no restrictions in this contest about that. A sprite is a sprite. Who's to say you can't use any sprite in a game?

Maybe someone should start an old skool pixel art contest if we keep coming back to this argument.

Hey, they don't have to be sensible hats.   He's a weather man, by the way.  Note the microphone.  I just rushed this to get some more entries shoveled in. 

[Renal Shutdown]

Al's idea. A hat, wearing character.


Since you've peeped up with the story of the days of old and stuff.. I hope you're going to enter, LGM.

It's a little boy wearing a friendly mind-controlling alien from outer space with a hat.
He just got that knife out of the kitchen drawer and nobody knows what will happen next.

Btw, I like Pixel-Sprites more than Vector-Sprites, but since there are no restrictions in the rules, I think Vector-Sprites are OK for this Sprite Jam.

[TheSaint]

first thing i wanted to say is sprite is sprite, meaning u can use it in games as EGO sprite
second thing: girl was made in photoshop 4.0, drawn with lines and pencil meaning no flash and curved lines were used believe it or not. and it was made in 300X300 screen/canvas but since she didnt fit 150x150 i scaled her to 50%.
original size:

the one to fit 150X150 restriction
