Hey guys, Cactus Studios here. I just started my new game, “The Northern Firebreather”. As you guess, firebreather means… Dragon! Yes, in this game, you play as a dragon. Here is a little screenshot of my advancement on the main character sprite: Screen Shot 2021-04-30 at 7.59.52 AM

Looks pretty neat, looking forward to more updates on this game!

Alright, here is the walking animation, if one of you wants to mae a better one, you’re welcome, I’ll give you the base sprite: ezgif-3-2842ece73b26

It looks good, but are you planning on giving it front legs? Right now it kinda looks like it would just fall over. (in my my opinion)

Cactus_Studios_Games · April 30, 2021, 4:17pm

No, sorry, I plan it to make it look like a Wyvern, because first, they look more cool (at my opinion) and also because 4-legs walking would be a mess for me

Ramshackle · April 30, 2021, 4:19pm

Well in that case it’s lookin’ good! You threw me off when you said

Cactus_Studios_Games · April 30, 2021, 4:19pm

I’m glad my games hype people

You may want to add some more shading, because it looks a bit off when the only bit of shading is on the neck and the rest is the same color. Maybe add a shadow to make it pop out more. It’ll be more work, but trust me it’s worth it.

Cactus_Studios_Games · April 30, 2021, 4:23pm

@Ramshacklegamestudios looks more stable, now, right?

Ramshackle · April 30, 2021, 4:25pm

Maybe add a bit more shading around the tail and on the back of the wing depending on the environment

Scales would also be nice, but they aren’t completely necessary (wyverns usually have pretty prominent scales).

Cactus_Studios_Games · April 30, 2021, 4:26pm

I’ll try to get inspired by dragons/(wyverns?) in Skyrim, it’ll be a good model for both shading and morphology
