Sprite Jam
01.06-07.06
Topic:
The BossFor example, you may draw a guy who owns a company, the leader of a street gang, the president of a big country, whatever. As long as it is related to the topic.
Your 'boss' can be a real Big Boss, lousy wannabe, whatever. Male, female - as you like it. Rich or poor? Whatever you want.
So - go crazy, but follow the rules.:)
Rules:
Size: As you like it -- no restrictions here.
Colors: Not more than 16.
Bonus:
Originality - the more original sprite, the more better--
--and the sprite should be usable in an adventure game.
That's it. Enjoy the Jam! :)

da bossÃ, ;D I just had toÃ, ;D . Inspired by Adrian Smith's orcboss drawing I have in a Warhammer book of his, though totally original drawing and style. 13 colours.
How to use in game?
- NPC: minimum requirement movement of boar's legs for a walk cycle, and adding a talk cycle and maybe idle
- cut scene cut scene
Not an entry for oh-so-many reasons, but I couldn't resist:

He is a bit run-down businesman, whose company went to bankrupt.
This is way not up to the quality here, and it's kinda cheating, because I was working on the first frame of my character's walk cycle anyway, and he's the boss of the cats in my (probably not) forthcoming game. But what the hey.

I think the text may have done some crazy antialiasing while I wasn't looking. Ignore it. I swear the kitty is only 7 colours.
Oh yeah - doesn't really show up there but his eye is scarred. The other one works ok, but silly me wanted to do the "walking left" cycle first. Sorry if it looks weird.

Use in an adv. game:
- Easy to make an idle animation and a talking one, a little harder for a walking anim.
- can be used as a static sprite eg. on a poster, on a wall etc...
100X100, 16cols including bg color.

I reckon I would have had a better chance of winning if I'd drawn her hot deputy.
Ah well..
