[Char] Rocky

[Trickityhouses]

version .03



<DOWNLOAD HERE>



NOTES: 0.03 december 6 2010

Added sound effects. Fixed some bugs. Added the weapon points for most of his attacks. Adjusted some of the attacks. The Giga fury now knocks people over even armored people. And some other stuff I changed that I can't remember.

Issues
Column do not break to some attacks. they stop some attacks in the air it weird.

Shield only hit one person, I'm ok if this stays the same its not a big deal.

Hammer doesn't break, I'm also ok if it just disappears.

Also if anyone want to finish the DC you are more then welcome. I kinda don't feel like doing the DC anymore. If you do fix the problems let me know and I'll put it in the final release version and give you credits for the help.

Hey guys I'm new here but I've been looking through the fourms for the past few weeks and going on a lf2 mod craze. After messing around a bit I decided to throw my hat in the ring and make my own character.

His name is Rocky and his powers are well, rock powers.

I'm pretty decent at making the little sprites and I'm still learning the dc stuff.

Anyways heres some pics, tell me what you think.









I based the regular animations off of woody's animations and a few from john. But all of the sprites are 100% original. I tried not to make him look too ridiculous and overpowering, so he is like a basic lf2 character that hopefully will fit with the rest.

I still need massive work for the columns. They're kind of messed up right now. I think Jossua is going to help a bit with some dc stuff.

march 9 2010

NOTES: 0.02 march 9 2010

Slight changes to how the character plays. Most of the mp is
increased and damages is changed. I removed the D^J move because
it was pretty useless. D>J is now usable in the air and acts like
a finisher for most of the combos. The run infinite attack has been
changed into a single attack. The Stone Mallet has been givin the
options, throw, defend, or swing. Most of the art should be done
but the dc still needs a lot of work like b points and w points
aswell as the hit zones and that kind of stuff. The Column attack
needs work too.

MOVES:

D>A Rock Riser (mp 115)
Creates a 5 column of rocks in a line.
Can be aimed slightly up or down. Moderate wind up. Good for
Some defense as the rock columns can block some attacks and
slow others.

DvA Stone Mallet (mp 100)
Summons a stone mallet then swings it. Very slow wind up.
Huge damage and attack power. The Stone mallet is a weapon
and can be used as one. It has short range like the knife.
Can be thrown to stun people. If you tap A before the swinging
you throw it instead. If you tap D you block.

D^A Pop Up (mp Free)
Does the super punch. Pops people into the air. Can chain
into a flying Giga's Wrath

D>J Giga's Fury (mp 225)
Summons a giant stone hand to punish foes. Attack is directly
in front and a small attack appears behind. Does good damage
and goes through any attack. Quick to perform.

D>J Giga's Wrath (mp 100)
Summons a giant stone spike to impale foes. Attack is directly
in front and is very fast. Can be performed after many attacks.

DvJ Earthen Circle (mp 125)
Summons a earthen sheild to protect. Can be performed in the
air. Also damages enemies. No damage is taken while in the
shield. Can chain into Giga's Wrath

one thing to say: WOW!
you are a beginner, but already do such great sprites!
there's nothing i could complain about!

to the char himself: actually i think his fighting style should be more adapted from rocky the film. he looks like a great martial arts fighter to me.
but thats up to you

edit:
@alec: >:D

[Alectric]

wow dude, they are impressive sprites!
they are nice and consistent, a good quality in spriting
the face picture is really well drawn

you've got talent man!
i hope you can find a DC'er or learn DC, because this char is very awesome, and has a hopeful future!

btw, if you dont mind me asking, how long did it take to sprite those sprite sheets?

EDIT: bamboori you damn ninja!

EDIT2: I just looked at your site man! i wish i could draw like that. you have some really awesome drawings there!

[Azriel]

pretty ; somehow he emits a bit of dennis in him
small thing, his arms are a bit thin in a number of the sprites (maybe i'm not seeing it right with the dark bg, but lazy to open a gfx program)



Azriel~

[YinYin]

the face pic looks rather strange
would you consider making it less thin and moving facial structures a bit further apart?
the mouth is a bit too crooked for my liking too
and why would you let him have such lousy punches for both jump and dash attacks?

looking forward to see him animated

seen this?

OMG, the first thing i did was pass out....lol
dude YOU CAN SPRITE!!! no doubt about it...
Like omg....wow
i can't rly say more since i am not a dc person....
i would rly like to see you finnish up the template parts...

@bamboori- I dont know if i wanna make him a boxer but some one should make a boxer that'll be funny and thanks for the comments.

@alectric- thanks, these two sheets probably took me a few weeks, maybe 2 and a half for these. I'll say the first sprite took me the longest just because that sets out the ground work for the rest of the sprites. Thanks for taking a look.

@Azriel- I guess he does look like Dennis, I didn't really realize it. The white shoes, simple pants, and cowl are similar. Yeah his arms are quite thin in some frames I'll just give them another pass.

@yinyin- actually I agree with you on all three. I felt the same way about the face picture and the air attacks. I'll probably go back and fix all that. Nope havnt seen that, is that like a rock person contest? guess I'm a bit late. Some of that looks cool though. thanks for the crit

@lutichris- Thanks a bunch, I'm actually working on those right now.

I guess I'll just post what ever When I get some more stuff. Thanks a bunch

hey really nice sprites... and the facepic is really well done to. lokking forward playing with your char. oh and the best thing you done is 1st make the whole sheets... then show them. i liked that. i usually make some sprites tyhen start showing them then eventually lose interest.

thumbs up mate.

[Trickityhouses]

@prince_freeza- thanks man, I wanted to show a big the general look of his moves.

Any ways heres an update of the face pic. I thinks its cleaner and more in line with the originals of the game. I made it wider so he's not so thin looking and fixed the crookedness of the entire face.

OLD

NEW


And I finished the run attack animations. I'll probably go back and add some speed lines to help with the motion. A cool feature of the attack is that it can last forever if you keep tapping attack. So its like a mini strafe.



The attack looks kinda silly like this but its a lot better in game and in motion.

[Divisor]

Forever?
I hope not

Anyway, the sprites are professional, nothing to complain about them.
Also nice to see someone with the Earth element, not a lot of this kind of chars around here.
If you need help with DCing, feel free to ask, just read some articles first so people don't get annoyed too much :P

Nice to see a promising member here. Enjoy your stay
