The IceCrusher looks very icy island and does not fit well into Forest Levels. Here's a version of it I edited to make it fit in better; in real screenshots;




What do you think? Any thing you want to change?

I think it's a little too brown. Should be better visible in my opinion.

I don't like the idea of just using a recolored ice crusher as a forest variant. The crusher should look more different than his icy counterpart.
I still think that angrystone would be a better idea, because he already looks similar to icecrusher and his current behavior is weird and could be replaced by icecrushers behavior.

This is how it would look like, if we would use AngryStone as a forest variant of Icecrusher:

Problem is that the AngryStone, as it is, is used in a couple of levels. So, unless we change the default sprite for AngryStone, we can't just exchange the two badguys.

Yeah, I noticed it is a bit too brown. Another problem is that Angry Stone has a completely different behaviour than the IceCrusher. The AngryStone will keep following the player while the IceCrusher will just try to crush the player.

Why can't the AngryStone be coded to behave exactly like IceCrusher, except with a different texture?
Apart from the spikes on top, of course.

I like it a lot. I'd like something that would glow a bit though.

Cool!

What about using the Angry Stone texture on the IceCrusher?

That's what I was talking about. (Maybe I didn't made it that clear.)

Or maybe a whole new design?

Here's a sprite. Well my work is done For now.
