Updated: Broken Sword colorist to work on Rise of the Hidden Sun!

chapter11studios · Tue 19/10/2004 18:30:10

Since I'm not writing an Adventure Architect for adventuregamers.com this month (it's baseball season and the Sox are in the playoffs, so my brain is numb), I thought I'd post this snazzy new screen shot from Rise of the Hidden Sun to keep you all interested.

It's a scrolling shot, two screens wide at 800x600 each. If you look at the rope that's holding the bridge together on the front side of the bridge, I think you'll see what the obstacle here is for Jake.

It's a great looking background (as usual).

I hope that fraying support rope doesn't snap ...

NOTE: I probably should have merged it into that thread

When comparing it to other pieces of art i've seen from the game, it looks 'wrong'

The bridge style and colouring etc looks absolutely spot on, however the rocks look different

the rock structures on this one look, more defined? the foreground on the newer one, the right hand side looks a bit random with the dots etc?

Is this the result of a new colourist? I think i saw you on the gamedev forums a while back recruiting.

Still, it looks good and 'up there' with some of the better looking adventure games

One word: groundbreaking!

Wonderful art; the art you did thus far was excellent also, but I think you outdid yourself this time.

Interesting you should notice.

We're actually touching that up today. Also should point out that a lot of the screenshots up on chapter11studios.com are older and have been changed a bit. I should probably put the revised ones up, eh?

Awesome new screenie. Those ruins in the background are beautiful. How long till there's a demo?

Lazy Z · Thu 21/10/2004 20:03:51

Those two screenshots look... astounding! So yeah, when will you release a demo?

Only if you post them in the wrong place.Â¬Â¬

Truly astounding artwork, the likes of which I have never seen in a game.
Well, for a game, but you get the point.

LIES!!!!111!!1

(So much from my constructive reply...)

What i mean is, congratulations, i don't know what to say. Really great news. Now just tell me that it is going to be 900 kb big, and you made my day.

Vel · Tue 26/10/2004 20:21:00

Thats splendid news!
Great to hear that an artist from BS will be joining your team, that makes me look forward to this game even more.

I was going to say the same thing as Puddin'
