Both of those look amazing. And just thinking of it scaled down to iPhone size is already making me want the game.
Any information about the gameplay or is that under wraps?
The only thing that strikes out to me as being misplaced is the feet of the frog. I don't know whether the frog is specifically designed to stand out or not. If it is, then everything's perfect the way it is. I really like the way you've done those trees. Well done! :3
Having looked at them both on my iPhone and Samsung Tablet, I think the one where the frog glows actually works a little better. Some frogs do glow, and it also gives my character even more appeal. Some people might recognise him as the character from a game I made in 1999 (1999!!) and then revamped in 2008. The glow could also look really nice on other levels with different backgrounds.
The gameplay is fully designed, and I will talk about it soon, and have been creating a really nice, dynamic engine designed around altering the pace of the game to match the timer/framerate, so that it can run on whatever devices without compromising the graphics or content (i.e. it'd be smooth 60fps on iPhone 4S, it might dip to 50fps on 4, 30fps on 3GS etc. but the game would continue to appear to be running full speed) I just don't want to give too much away until it's further into development (give me a week or so) because I'm hoping to get this one featured.
Personally I prefer the non-glowing frog, but I think both fit nicely. If both variatons look good on a small display, too, it shouldn't matter which one you use.
Will be easier to decide in motion, and when it's on different backgrounds.
Looking much more colourful now.
Spending an hour here and there in my evenings trying to get it to look perfect before I start putting the game together properly, because the visuals will be an important part of this game's appeal...
Is this an adult game? Because the firefly on the top right looks like he has a giant swinging nutsack =P
It'd look more fluid if the frog's glow was green
Looking great DistantJ!
Lol, he just happens to be flying over the fruit on the tree.Originally Posted by jregork
Looking good though!
It is looking very very good DistantJ. Maybe the frog is missing a drop shadow on the ground.
