What are you making? - TTLG Forums

Thing 2 is all GameMaker Studio, so totally 2D, just doing tricks changing the depth setting dynamically based on a 'ground' variable that only updates when two booleans are in the right state ("jump" has to be false, and "grounded" has to be true).

My understanding of Unity Free licensing is that it's free for commercial use for every platform that it exports to, including Android and iOS, so long as you make less than $100,000/yr. Pro and the Android Pro license have useful things like the Profiler and slightly better rendering, but I think I got away okay without them.

I've been quiet for quite some time but... big news coming Monday :D

That is some fantastic looking art, Koobs. Did you make it yourself or have your gotten some additional people onboard the Karaski team?

Oh right, yes. I'd read about that but wasn't sure if it extended to Android.

Hey Koobs it's Monday! Where's the big update? You better give Karaski it's own thread as well and not just hide your amazing shit away in the deep dark corners of this thread! :D

Also Koob, when can I buy shares in you?

Yakoob on 17/2/2015 at 05:19

Patience my padawans :D Anyways, (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145069&p=2279704) here's the thread! SPOILER: no the game isn't out yet boo. But first gameplay trailer and Steam Greenlight have begun!

Myself, but I am recruiting new artists as well, plus talking to my Postmortem guys too!

I could do some OK artwork for you if you like. I have a Wacom tablet that doesn't get nearly enough use as it should.

So I'm not great at drawing, but kind of okay at 3D stuff, so I'm trying to make sprites for Thing 2 in Blender, but I need an opinion:

Which one do you think is better/looks more like pixel art?

Renzatic on 19/2/2015 at 00:41

The bottom one, definitely. In fact, I'd say see if you can drop the resolution a little lower, might make it look more pixel arty.

Nice walking animation Faf. I think I like the top one better.

Has anyone here used (http://www.adobe.com/fi/products/photoshop-premiere-elements.html) Adobe Photoshop & Premiere Elements btw? I'm trying to stay on the straight and narrow here and 130 euros seems like a pretty good price. I'm used to using Photoshop and Premiere and I'm wondering how much more limited the Elements versions are. Found a good (https://forums.adobe.com/message/4568487) comparison write-up for PS/PSE, and it sounds like it'll be good enough for my needs (don't really need 16-bits or CMYK, etc.). But I'm less sure about Premiere Elements. I've also looked into some other video editors. Tried some free open source ones that really sucked. Tried a trial of Cyberlink Powereditor a few days ago but I didn't enjoy the feel of it at all.
