FlagFu Art

• Players
  • Probably the most important part here...
  • In the game, players act like circles in all of the collision detection. We can deal with this two ways that I can see
    • Make the collisions circles a little smaller than the art, leaving a little bit off error (feet below ground, not being able to walk directly next to a wall). I think this is my prefered way.
    • Make the players actually look round. (Can't help but notice ​http://www.rpi.edu/~kongk/gifs/a18.gif :P). If you can make them look good and be round (fat/otherwise bulky), that's great, but I can't picture it.
  • The players are supposed to be carrying balloons some of the time (the balloons hang above/behind them on strings...I don't know if there's any way you want to manage that, otherwise I'll just put the strings behind them at the center of the image.)
  • Animation
    • run
      • a bunch of frames of the player running in one direction would be a good start. legs and arms moving...that kind of thing
    • jump
    • fly
    • throw
    • pick up balloons
    • toggle flags
    • talk to the monk
    • get hit/stunned
• Volleyball
  • Just a round thing that flies through the air, bounces off of walls, and hits people. Some frames of just some generic noise/variation might add some quality to it, and I can rotate it as it flies. Currently 16x16.
• Flag
  • Flags (16x16, can be bigger if you want) are on a pole (64x64) and move between the top of the pole and the bottom.
  • If you want to make several frames of flag animation, we can make them wave in the "wind" a little, or I could try to warp it a bit in-game.
  • I forget why I made the pole image so wide, but the pole is in the center, and the left side of the flag image is "attached" to the pole.
• Balloon
  • The balloons sit around on the level some times and are carried by players other times.
  • Currently 32x32 for the round part seems to be a good size
  • If you want to have balloons be non-round (there could be the part where it is knotted and a string is tied on, slightly oblong, or whatever), I can try to make it rotate nicely in the game.
• Monk
  • The monk is sort of the hub of the game...players have to go to him, get some balloons, bring him back to the monk, repeat...
  • He could either hover in the air or stand around. Either is fine.
  • He's currently a single 64x64 image, which seems to be a good size, though I think I may scale him up in-game a little.
• Terrain
  • A tileable image (preferably 256x256) representing grass or the ground or anything that a level might be made out of
• HUD
  • Wind magic meter 256x16 image, only a fraction of it is shown (the left side) corresponding to how much "wind magic" is left
