The Pixelated Dawn

Post by SamBeckett94 »

My nephews wanted me to help them make a sprite comic about characters from Nintendo and Sega fighting, so I obliged. They've given me rough ideas of what they want me to right, so I am presenting it to you to tell me what to improve on for them.

FIRST:
When there are more, you'll have to read them a little like the Bible. For example, say 'Matthew 10:36' - 'Matthew' is the name of the book. '10' is the chapter. '36' is the verse.
With my sprite comic, 'Doomguy' is the part 'book', '01' would be the page, and '01' would be the paragraph. So, you are about to see the title page and 'Doomguy 01:01 - 01:08'.

Title page:

Doomguy 01:xx

Doomguy 02:xx

I don't know what you would need to improve one, Sam. I think it looks good anyways. ;)

Plus the pixelated pictures work pretty well, Hence the title "pixelated dawn" :)

Very nice, maybe you could use a better font though :)

Thank you, both of you. I'm thinking maybe I will user a different font, but I'm not too sure what font I will use. I have yet to see if my nephews are pleased with it.

I suggest using a font from an old video game.

I considered using the old Commodore 64 - NES font, maybe even the font used in the DOOM text strings. Thank you for the suggestion. When I reach part 2, I'll give it a shot.

Look back to my first post. I've included a new page - my nephews contributed to this one (they did the Doomguy sprites).

I think its supposed to be pixelated, if that is what you were referring to.

Not really... unless you think Times New Roman looks pixelated :|

Jesus Christ, I didn't realise how many grammatical errors there were. Don't worry, I can speak English, this was just done very late at night :lol:

I can no longer contribute to this due to works issues, but expect more from my nephews, Jimmy and Sam. They should give you quality work, they're both very imaginitive.
