Sprite Jam April 2-9: Under the Sea! (WINNER ANNOUNCED)

MashPotato · Sun 02/04/2006 19:32:07

Imagine an adventure game that takes place entirely under the sea--what kind of characters would there be?Ã,Â A talking clam...?Ã,Â An octopus in a bowler hat...?Ã,Â Make up an underwater sprite!

Restrictions:
max size: 200x200
max colours: 24
use your imagination--no copyrighted characters (eg. you can make a mermaid, but not Ariel)

Hope you have fun with it, and if you have any questions, fire away! ^_^

Krysis · Sun 02/04/2006 20:37:06

I need that gold thingy! ... So here is my entry:
75x125 and just 8 colours.

Rork might look like a sweet friendly shark, but don't trust him - sharks are sharks and they allways bite!

Now give me the shiny little gold man!!!

Bartimaeus · Sun 02/04/2006 20:48:11

Man thats a cool shark

Arcangel · Mon 03/04/2006 00:07:27

I need to say that, I love that Shark Sprite.

buloght · Mon 03/04/2006 10:39:14

Hah, Excellent shark sprite Relentless!Ã,Â :o

13 colours, 80x120

Entry

for fun:

Afflict · Mon 03/04/2006 11:10:21

Great sprites hehe I think putting the trophys in your sig will rock.

Just remember the trophys Buloght and I made were custom made so this means that the guy that hosts the jam must make an award you a trophy.

95x195 13colors

Did some minor changes added colors.

Mad · Mon 03/04/2006 13:15:38

Hi, I'm new to this, so please be be gentle to my fragile self-esteem!

Here it goes:
A star is born every minute!

2x

Edit: Damn, I forgot about that Spongebob and his cronies! I hope my entry doesn't resemble Patrik too much and still counts. Not that it would do any difference anyhow seeing that funtastic seahorse!

Corey · Mon 03/04/2006 17:46:09

thnx Mad, you've just brought me on an idea

Edit:

Your entry reminds me of patrick , Mad. So I figured: "why not make spongebob?"
so here he is

Well, I'm a gal, but your point is understoodÃ,Â

... don't worry, I already started on trophies yesterday (it wouldn't be fair for me to get Buloght's cool warrior trophy and not make some for the next winnders, right? ^_^)

But a question: does everyone really plan to put trophies (if giving trophies becomes a new custom) in their signature?Ã,Â If so, I will have to shrink mine down a bit (it's not a problem, but just let me know ^_^)

By the way, all the entries so far are great, but I'll say my specific comments at the endÃ,Â

.Ã,Â Keep up the fabulous spriting, everyone!

EDIT: Corey, unfortunately copyrighted characters are not allowed, so that can't be an entryÃ,Â

(and the picture looks... suspicious $:-\$ )

Corey · Mon 03/04/2006 18:26:40

If I would win I would be so proud that I praborly will put it in my sig ^_^

You should sue.

Afflict · Mon 03/04/2006 18:50:25

No I think he should pay them.. They did a much better JOB!

buloght · Mon 03/04/2006 19:26:26

I like the trophy-in-signature idea, MashPotato, i did mine around 48x44, that's small enough i guess

Cool, now i want more trophies!!

I just knew I would get some gay response like this. I didn't steal an image just like that. Thought I must admit I use a similiar image to make the pose.

big brother · Mon 03/04/2006 19:51:46

It's obviously indexed, not hand pixelled. Next time you should trace it and clean up the artifacts instead of just shrinking it down.

Sam. · Mon 03/04/2006 20:00:41

hey! i made spongebob too!

so did someone at this site!

Afflict · Mon 03/04/2006 20:08:00

I remember when Sprite Jams actually contained sprites ...

Corey ... you really must be learning impaired. It's pathetic. I asked you after your first pointless post not to make pointless posts in the competitions board, then you post again. I send another PM explaining why you shouldn't do it ... AND YOU DO IT YET AGAIN. Remarkable ... truely remarkable.

People ... if you aren't going to enter the competiton, would you please FOR THE LOVE OF HOLY GOD ABOVE just not post in here?

Am I the only one that finds 4 entries out of 60000000 posts irritating and pointless?

To avoid being hypocritical:

Amy the amoeba, princess of the quantum realm of the underseas ...

Now give me that trophy.
