Title: Fountain - C&C needed
Post by: A�rendyll (formerly Yurina) on Sat 08/07/2006 17:39:04
Hi all,

I'm very busy on a new game, which is tiled. So far, I'm busy on my second background, and I could use some C&C about a fountain I made.

This is the fountain I'm talking about:

Does it need more mist? Isn't the animation to slow/quick? Or should I improve womething else? Tell me all about it!

Thanks in advance,
~Yurina

EDIT1: I made the water flowing in the right direction. (downwards.) The outlines aren't changed yet.

less prominent water outlines. And the water looks like it's flowing upwards!

Whoops! You're right, Babar. I'll make them go downwarts. I used prominent outlines so the fountain would extinguish itsself from te water that's already in the bassin.

Thanks,

The angle of the basin doesn't really seem to match up with the way the water is flowing...not really sure what should be done to fix it but something seems wrong...

To reiterate what monkey_05_06 said, the basin is pointed away from the viewer, yet the water comes forward in front of the statue, making it seem as if the water is doing a U-turn.  It might look better if you change the angle such that the mouth of the jar is pointed more upward. 
Other than that, I think it's a very nice fountain ^_^

Yeah...that's it! ;)

BTW, I like the sprite...just I'd like it more when the angle of the basin is fixed... :D

Ah, thanks MashPotato, I didn't really get what monkey_05_06 said... But I'll try to improve ASAP. I'll notify you when it's done.

Thanks again,
