I was gonna take some sprites a Slightly Out of Order member made, recolor them and make a new weapon, then use them to represent you, Arha.

I thought dark-shaded armor, a small-horned helmet, and a cool weapon would work well...

I'll start the next game tomorrow morning

Its more of a dark bronze colour, but yes, sounds good.

overly complex plans are much harder with comics

As to sprites, Chicago posted a zip file containing sprite sheets for:

Me
Cheshire
Meister
Oster
RaiRai
and Shiney

here

I believe that they're incomplete, but what's there is very good.

I decided to try my own hand at a bit of spriting. I used Chicago's sprites as references, primarily for scaling matters, but also to a certain degree for other things. Here's what I came up with:

so, it is ending time once again

the two ending are really similar, but the methods are different.
personally, I'm not sure which one I prefer

New post:

As I understand it, godmoding is the practice of making it impossible to be harmed, or of making one's own attacks automatically perfect.

Simply put, it's like using the "godmode" cheat in a game, or determining the outcomes of your actions without letting others have a say. The latter is the worse of the two, in my own opinion.

Very incomplete. Infact, the color design for the CT sprite is slightly incorrect. The pack attached to that post is really just some sort of alpha release.

I have plans to rectify that problem though, as I intend to do some spriting* tomorrow. NPF members, as well as original stuff.

Funny that the first Calvinball Discussion post I read happens to be about NPFM Sprites.

* I use "spriting" as a generalized term. In a more technical sense, I refer to "modding"

I raise this from the dead so that the new people can see the rules of the game.
