Got a little stuff done last night. Discovered the art I’m going to use; I mentioned it a long time ago on my blog but it’s worth a repeat: Oryx’s Lo-Fi Fantasy Sprites<\/a>. Here’s a taste.<\/p>\n

Aren’t they precious? They were originally made for a game competition called Assemblee about four years ago; since then they’ve become mainstays of the indie scene. Oryx sells an expanded commercial set<\/a> so I contacted him and asked him if it were okay to use these for a non-commercial project; fortunately he was fine with that.<\/p>\n

But I didn’t have time to get them integrated, so what you’re getting today is Colored Squaresville:<\/p>\n

To come – um…everything. I’ve got the design nailed and it’s simple enough to do in the time allotted. I have the graphics I want. I’ve got the skillz from writing my bigger game, Planitia. Let’s get it done.<\/p>\n

And by let’s, I mean me. I have to get it done.<\/p>","time":"July 24th, 2013 7:24 am","title":"Chitin Update 3"}
