Some sprites, including an updated protagonist, someone in a diving outfit (a hint to the game’s theme, perhaps?) and an old friend.




Project Shenforce (working title) is a tactical RPG in a 16-bit style. It is currently in development using the Microsoft XNA framework.

Our little hero — He looks a bit like a certain rejected SEGA mascot because of the big ears, but it’s just a coincidence.

Urgh.

House interior — Everything you need for a great 2D lifestyle…
…just pee in the shower. Easy.

House exterior — Nice and tropical, but will it stay that way?
Well the village isn’t going to burn down, that’s for sure
Stay tuned for more on Project Shenforce!
I thought it’d be interesting to show the progression of a scene that I’ve been drawing for the game recently. So here it is!
A simple line drawing - inspired by my own kitchen. Make sure the perspective’s spot on.

Add a basic light source and reflection - to give some depth.

Add atmospheric lighting and detail to reflective surfaces - tweak the opacity of the lines and surfaces according to how much light they will be exposed to.

Add detail to cupboards and add in a foreground element - I wanted something to fill that bottom corner.

…but what about that big empty space on the left-hand side?
Populate the space with objects - I extended the wall and added scratches, damage, stairs and wallpaper.

Almost done!
Note: This scene is from an unfinished project and is completely unrelated to our RPG game.
