It goes without saying, "It's an enGVee resource; it gets 5*."
I would add a sixth star if I could because of the inclusion of the beat-em-up projection; my project is using this exact perspective, and I am glad to see it here.
I hope my games live up to the awesomeness of your art!
There is a tremendous need for this sort of resource, and you are filling that niche in a good way.
I really hope you make a few more collections of this kind, because "buildings in different stages of upgrade" is not a thing I've been able to find anywhere, and these look *great.*
I've bookmarked your normal website and have just decided that it is the first spot I need to go when I need Icons. (Those keys!!)
They don't look bad, though, so let me give a suggestion on how to do this:
If you're going to use an AI art engine to make stuff, please submit a LOT of it, like DreamingOfLight does. Curate the work, by making sure that the angle in the isometric is identical on all the buildings, and that the footprint / size of the sprite matches as well. And label it (like, "the 120 degree pack).
I don't mind AI art when it's used as the tool it is intended to be. So...I wish you well on your artistic journey.
I would like to see fantasy buildings with a *clear purpose* that are very distinct from each other.
So many assets, I see what would allow for a very nice generic village. And that's great. But I have enough of those.
What I want are buildings that do not look like a regular house; I want something with, like, floating orbs or a line of archery targets. Something that makes the building niche.
I must say...You consistently put out some really good pixel art.
I have no idea how itch.io does its algorithm. Is it beneficial for you if I comment on each of the different packs I've downloaded? (Which is quite a few of them!)
I've been on a bit of a rant-streak on a lot of poorly-made AI resources, as of late.
These, however, are NOT of the poorly-made variety. These look quite good. Not perfect, but far above the level of quality I've seen in other AI-related submissions.
I look forward to your expansion of this resource.
A minor thing, but I cannot use my gamepad on this web version---I can use my joypad/d-pad just fine to move, but I can't use buttons to jump or open the portal. I'm not sure why, but I thought you should know.
At first, because of the preview picture, I thought, "Weird. This doesn't look like Kal's usual awesomeness--looks a bit choppy for some reason."
But I have seen your other stuff-so I thought "I should try it out first."
MAN OH MAN I am glad I did. This golem is *smooth*. Really great. 5/5; this deserves the highest marks available.
And I must say I really like the way you organize the sprite sheets, too; it's very convenient. (As an aside, the Attack3 animation only has 15 frames---not sure if the last one didn't make it in or what. But it still looks good!)
I think you accidentally left out the sprite sheet that you intended to include! Right now it's just a static preview image of 32 different enemies, instead of one enemy, that you would need to even say "Don't resell this" about.
Giving 5* in advance, though, because all the stuff I've seen from you is pretty much 5* material. :D Keep up the good work!
Well this looks really nice. Feels like the nice part of the world in which Shadow of the Colossus takes place.
Also, as I look at it, the main castle structure looks as though it resembles a throne, with the vomitorium being the footstool. This is quite an inspiring appearance; was it intentional?
If I can figure out how to vote, I'm giving this top marks.
