The Spite of Jam 6/24-7/1 Winner: Farlander

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

I thought I would try something a little different with this competition, seeing as though so many people like to enter...


Fighting game characters!

Yes, that's right citizen, your mission (if you choose to accept it) is either to:

a) create your own all-new fighting game character
b) transform your favorite old school graphic adventure character into the fighting game world (the character must still be recognizable somehow).

Additional rules:

The maximum size is 400x400 and the minimum is 80x80 (some have requested I reduce the minimum size, so there you go!  This includes background space).  Fighting game characters are typically quite large.

The character MUST be detailed.  In fighting games, detail in characters and personality are every bit as important as crazy combos, so NO COLOR LIMIT!

Here is a sprite I made awhile ago to give you a few ideas...I call him Blanka on Roids..



What, no entries yet?  Well here is another sprite (a smaller one) that might give you some more ideas!

[Tiki]

Looks reminiscent of Hoagie surfing, Tiki.

[Rui 'Trovatore' Pires]

Hmmm... is that first one supposed just to be an example? 'Cause I don't know him from any adventure game...

[[Cameron]]

Blanka is from Street Fighter. Not an adventure game, but a game none the less.

[Ubel]

Tiki you stole my idea damnit!

Rui:

a) create your own all-new fighting game character
b) transform your favorite old school graphic adventure character into the fighting game world (the character must still be recognizable somehow).

Means it doesn't have to be from an adventure game.

I'm working on an entry now...

[Rui 'Trovatore' Pires]

Ok. I only asked because it was neither a brand new character (well, unless you want to look at it that way, as opposed to "revamp of old character") neither adventure game:

a) create your own all-new fighting game character
b) transform your favorite old school graphic adventure character into the fighting game world (the character must still be recognizable somehow).

EDIT - Pablo posted as I was typing, but I guess it still stands.

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

a) create your own all-new fighting game character

It IS a new character.  He was not designed with blanka in mind (I drew him from a concept painting I was given, that's another story) but there is a distinct similarity.

[Rui 'Trovatore' Pires]

Right, gotcha.

Well I haven't been around here in a while...

A semi-transparent old man that secretes crude oil and weilds a hammer.

Done in MSPaint as always, took about 1 hour and is 21 colors or so.
