Sprites and pixel art?
Posted: 2010-05-16 02:38am
This semester I decided to take a breather and enroll in a unit called "Games Fundamentals". It rocks, and the major assessment is making a game using Actionscript 3. I've got all that shit down pat, but the most time consuming thing for me at the moment is just making sprites. It's taken like four hours to produce the following parts for what will at some stage become a hierarchical sprite of Crab Nicholson:
The lecturer has given the OK to using sprites and materials that we didn't make ourselves, since the unit is focused on assessing the coding side of it, not the artwork side. So, does anybody have recommendations for where to start looking? I've come across some pages of ones that I'm fairly certain are not open source (i.e. sonic, mega-man etc), and a few libraries of open source sprites that didn't have what I was looking for.
Basically, I just want some dinosaurs. I found a multi-part T. rex-alike, but it looked fucking retarded.
EDIT:
Never-mind, I'm a retard. Close thread or leave it open so people can mock my work.
