Hi RaidanBullet. First off thanks for the feedback, you're right about the hunch on the AI-looking sprites, which is also why i classified the game as having ai-generated stuff in it. The majority of the graphics were generated with ChatGPT as a combination of my own artwork and asked the ai to generate sprites based off of my artstyle (Thick outlines, bold colours, kind of sports-mascotty looking artstyle).
if my budget permits, then i would love to replace all the sprites, but as things look right now its not likely. Hopefully in my next game I'll be working with artists, or taking the time to do it 100% myself.
This game, for me, was a kind of trial by fire where i promised myself I would finish development of a game, no excuses. So I've been doing everything in my power to stay focused and do the programming, even if it gets "hard"... I have a background in arts, so programming is my nemesis :)
Thank you for dropping the comment for me and giving me some feedback, I appreciate you taking the time to do it. If you have more thoughts on the game, design, mechanics, whatever, feel free to drop them here. Much appreciated!
