Here's an idea: an Automatic block placement mode that makes tiles automatically fit together seamlessly in the level editor like Super Mario Maker. I could possibly make all the tile types neccesary.

Haywire

Can you maybe redo the owl animations as well as the skydive when it drops? Maybe when the skydive is hovering over tux, the owl drops the skydive. Just a suggestion.

Tweaked Haywire's eyes to be anti-aliased and following suit made Mr. Bomb's eyes anti-aliased.

Ah, yes, I will look into fixing the owl possibly in future. The current one is not very pretty. Probably will use these for inspiration:

Alzter, Can you do something like on a Mountain slope with tux. When tux goes up a mountain, can you do an animation where badguys and tux slant up and down depending on whether the slopes go up or down. Can you make them slant up if the mountain slope is going up diagonally, and they slant down if the mountain slope is slanting down, Especially with snowy hills. Maybe do something like this?

Like make the badguys' feet turn at an angle on different slopes? Maybe. I'll consult the team.

So this is what Nolok actually looks like:



Using the top picture as reference I have created this Nolok sketch. If I were to make a Nolok model I'd probably make it off of this. Practically perfect match to the statue and Grumbel's model.

Yeah, make the badguys' feet turn at an angle and tux's feet too on different slopes.

For baduys' that'd be relatively easy since they only have 3 walk frames but for Tux that'd be near impossible

Grumbel's Nolok walk cycle:

While this looks pretty good, I feel Nolok's legs are too high and my design changes that, so I took a stab at making my own.

Refined my Nolok sketch for his model.

Behold!! The new Nolok sprite! Akin to Grumbel's style I draw the sprites at 2x resolution and then resize it. Here's the original:

And here's the sprite.

Question: What will the supertux team use the mr. candle badguy for?

ProTux {l Wrote}:Question: What will the supertux team use the mr. candle badguy for?

I'm not sure. Probably something to do with ambient light.

Nolok walking refined animation sketch

I love your Nolok Sprite! I think it looks pretty good! Also, when you do the sizes (or whatever) I recommend Nolok being bigger than Tux so he looks more menacing and challenging. The Mr. Candle Badguy is like a harming, moving lantern.

ProTux {l Wrote}:Question: What will the supertux team use the mr. candle badguy for?

Mr. Candle activates magic blocks (the colored blocks that activate when light of the same color is near it). So you can build levels where you have to be close to an enemy.

Went a different approach with Nolok entirely and just made it look like Grumbel's initial concept. Frame 1 is by Grumbel.

This isn't really a level, more so a test of a better looking castle foreground using the distort filter in the background.
(Use SuperTux 0.6.0 to run)

Alzter, can you redo the Mr. Cherry bomb, blue cherry bomb, the plant monster, and the dispensers? i feel like the ceiling, the dispenser that goes on the ceiling, or just open somewhere else, can you make it so that When tux buttjumps on the ceiling dispenser, it breaks in half. Also make it so that when tux shoots a fireball at the two-sided dispenser falls down like an enemy when you shoot a fireball at it. Also, redo the one-sided wooden cannon that can be turned left or right and can shoot enemies left or right depending on which direction the wooden cannon is facing.

Mmmmmmaybe.

Got bored. Have these.

Alzter, can you add new flowers where tux is invisible but you can still see tux on the screen and badguys walk right next to fix or right through him without bad guys doing any damage to tux?

Well, I don't really handle anything code-side of the game so not really. But that does sound like a good suggestion, I'll ask the team about it. Maybe some sort of Stealth Flower?
