Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

A short video of the beginnings of my next hack. It displays a few tile edits (a lot of which aren't final), as well as one of my pickup edits. The hack is going to be retro-themed. Keep your eyes peeled for the Mario-esque pipes. Razz

Oh, and no level editing has been done yet...

. . .

Do you plan on messing with enemies/samus tiles? Lots of hard work if you do, but it would look really cool.

OR if you don't want to take forever trying to edit Samus, you can just make her all one color or something?

edit: P-P-P-P-PAGE BREAK!

I had planned to at least do the enemies, but with Samus, it'll depend entirely on how easy it is once I start. I presume that a lot of the frames will be mirrored to a degree, and since it's retro-themed, I reckon it'll be fine to actually just mirror them, which'll save on some of the labour, so fingers crossed. Pray

your uh.. "flowers" don't really look that good due to style clash with your super-simple forground IMO.

If you mean the blue tiles, they aren't finalised yet, and will probably have a little more detail when they're done. But in saying that, the flowers were one of the first tile edits I made, and will probably be going, along with the grass, as I want all grassy tiles to have the same look, and the taller strands and flowers look odd. Thanks for the comment anyway. Very Happy

I would suggest altering the tile slightly, giving it less 'base', making the claw part nearer the centre of the 16x16 tile, as when you fire the grapple beam in-game, the beam will attach to the centre of the tile, not the bottom, and it may look odd. Very Happy

Ok, I think I got it (almost) perfect this time. It hooks onto the little part thats in the middle.

Haven't posted anything in here for a while, so here goes. Been working on a tile set for the inside of the space pirate ship (no, not the wrecked ship). I figured they'd be high tech insects, so the inside would be techy/metallic but organic looking at the same time. Below are two shots taken of the same screen... The tiles haven't changed, but I changed the FX1 for a different mood. I know which I prefer, but some people differ on opinion, so I'm posting both.

Thoughts welcome on both the graphic set and the fx1 to go with (though I'll probably use both to an extent):

I'll be either replacing or eliminating the vent.

I like the second shot better Jathys. The first may be more colorful, but the second is more dark and mysterious, like I would expect a Space Pirate ship to be. Tileset looks great by the way. I love that outer fringe you've drawn.

Second one does look more mysterious and also more threatening, so second one.

I'd go with the first, as I like things to be nice and clear.

@Jathys: I like the first one better. The second's colors make it feel like there's a style quality clash between it and Samus + the Space Pirate (seems sub-SNES, though maybe it wouldn't in motion or with more tiles in view). First one's palettes remind me of the colors in A Link at the Past for some reason...

I haven't had much progress recently, but I am still working on my own hack...

Quietus: You have a pretty nice retro style going there. It is hard to believe that someone could draw those in from TLP themselves.

MoogleEmperor: That's a cool jungly palette you have there!

Also, here's some of my own progress on my hack, for those who don't read individual hack topics:
