They'll both have to be underneath, but 7 floors is certainly doable.Quote:

Nice, I like what you did with the sides of it where the the glass platform sort of slides into those slots. I'd make the top surface of the platform flat, thought. I hate little bumps on small walkways and stuff because you can get stuck or bumped into the air or whatever and it causes warping sometimes. We probs don't want any warping in a map like this.
If I ever put this into a game engine, I can just have a simple collision plane for the platform, so I don't think it'd really mess up anyone walking over it.

a bitch
Thankfully, unlike front/back they can mostly just be flipped.

Due to various stages of "computer overheats if it has to run anything 3D", I've taken up spriting.
Spriting is awesome. Try doing 3-frame idle animations- learn to effectively use layers, things like that. But above all, keep at it.Quote:

try to make your standing poses look more natural, and if it's going into a video game make sure like they look like they're ready for a fight. Unless that's just supposed to be an idle suit of armor or something, in which case ignore this. Also as you can see here, using bright/contrasting colors is always a good idea with character sprites. If your sprites are too dull they might actually blend into the background thus making gameplay frustrating.
I think he was just doing a standard T pose to get the details and anatomy rightQuote:

Not sure I'm going to be using it anyway, at least not without making it less "direct copy" of the motoslave.
