Just a question because I've never done one of these before...

Does it have to be 40x60 per character and does it have to be 16 colours or is the maximum requirements?

Post by: buloght on Wed 05/07/2006 18:09:57
16 colours and 40x60 are maximum restrictions, so you can go anything smaller or less than that :) Sorry I forgot to add 'max' to the topic header. And 40x60 are the max restriction for each character on their own.

Meet the two-man two-thing crew of the star-glider Phorz IV:

Cpt. Brain and Lt. Bran

(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/crew.png)

They travel through time and space, without thought of personal risk,
to deliver your Pizza fresh and hot!

Phorzy's Pizza Emporium guarantees your order reaches you juicy and steaming or you'll get your money back!

Phorzy realized early on in his career as pizza parlour owner that the customers would do nearly anything to avoid paying the bill, so he started hiring dynamic duos consisting mainly of an astrophysicist and muscle. The physicist is of course needed to maneuver through the fabrics of time and space and the muscle deals with the rest.
But he didn't count on our protagonists:

Cpt. Brain is just as intelligent as nervous, which is why he erratically jumps from one incoherent though to the next.

Lt. Bran indeed has loads of the required muscle, but is so mild mannered that he couldn't hurt a belbriz.

the dog is called Butch. he is a little dumb and believes that god is a big steak. in the future he wants to be a big star and go to hollywood.

nobody knows the parrots real name but Butch calls him "Boss". he flew from africa all the way to america because in africa nobody was dumb enough to follow his rule. he made himself a name as a private detective. it was one of this damn wednesday evenings when he met Butch for the first time. with the right gift he finally got his partner. and well his aim is to conquer the world...

Introducing Jo & Finkgrib:
(http://koti.mbnet.fi/paajanen/ags/two_final_combined.gif) (http://koti.mbnet.fi/paajanen/ags/two_final_combined.gif)

This static duo relies on power of the siblings, Jo being the elder sister and Finkgrib (often credited as FG) the younger brother. Where as Jo isn't the brightest bulb in the ceiling, she knows how to get past and walk over absolutely any man she faces. FG on the other hand just happens to know everything about everything. Being just 8 years old that's a lot of knowing (...too much, I mean, just look at him, 8 years!)

Meet Mike Penguno, a tough-talkin', chain-smokin', hardboiled private eye who's been known to bust a few beaks in his quest to solve a case.
Meet Hubert "Hummy" Byrd, Penguno's highstrung partner who uses his small size and hovering skills to sneak into hostile territories and gather intelligence. 
With their mix of brains and brawn, they're the most formidable private detective duo in all of Nestburg.  Bad guys beware!

Cue Ball is the brainiac of the team and Scrubby is... the hairiac of the team.
Together they are up to get some of Cue Ball's wacky inventions sold.
One of Cue Ball's inventions is Kassuhelium, the bigbrother of helium. They also have a little submarine that uses Kassuhelium instead of water.  ;D

Thanks for all the interesting entries! It was a most enjoyable sprite jam. Some creative entries all round, it's hard to choose the winner. Special mention goes to nikolas with the funniest entry, I mean at the end of the game there will only be one main character leftÃ,  ;D. And the ivy for unique idea and great skill too.

The winners are as follows:

Brilliant spriting as always, also a contender for first place. You receive the bronze peasant-with-his-prize-pig trophy.

MashPotato, what can I say, I love your spriting and art, the birdie rules! Well done Afflict, the reaper rules! You both receive the silver wizard-with-his-familiar silver trophy.
