Thank you bud, that's a great solution! Yeah I think I was getting too hung up on having it keep ALL the existing skirts. It'd totally work great to make just one skirt specialized for tails, one armor, etc. I'd already made two variations for a scaly and unscaly tail (in case people want to do slugs or caterpillars) and lizardlike head or keeping the human one. So it might work better to make all of that modular 'outfit' parts to mix and match!
You're also totally correct that I can't possibly make every colour everyone would want, and they can totally edit it if they need to. Perhaps I'll just include a bonus image with some suggested palettes for other scales, and people can eyedrop them if they want.
Thanks for all your great advice, I'll keep on working hard! I hope you enjoy the sprites when they're done :)
You reminded me that I completely forgot to add my palette to the files, so people have a reference x_x
Yeah, don’t overstress to much, there is just so much we can do. We should also trust that people are fully able to go further into their own edits as long as we provide the base files for them. Mix and matching is interesting because people will come up with combinations that we didn’t think about at first.
You are always welcome, my friend, I really appreciate all your hard work and I am sure I will like them, with all the clear as crystal passion you are pouring on it! :)
OH YEAH, THE PALETTE
Oh how do I do that? I don't think I've ever noticed itchio had a ratings button omg I'm so unobservant. I'd be happy to help if I can!
EDIT: ah it turns out the button just straight up isn't there on mobile. I'd been using that for replies, oops. Ok I'll go find it on desktop!
It wasn't working on mobile for me, I did try clicking on the stars under "more information: rating:"
But it's no biggie, I got it sorted on mobile! Hope my review helps!
