Yay! First and last update for a big while! Project Overthrow... Well, I've decided to leave this little dream alone for a while, since the game I'm currently working on isn't ready yet for these awesome work. I hope one game will be ready for them, though. Anyways...

This is all of Project Overthrow forms and how it has evolved before I made the walking animations:

Project "Overthrow" (to throw (something) too far) is an idea that reached my mind recently. This project is aiming to evolve all game character's graphical animations for an ORPG (Has no name till date; Is currently in pre-development phase right now(12/11/11)) in which I'm currently working. To be more specific, the project is based in having various character bases, each one for every gender(male and female) and age(child, teen, adult, old), which will include various detailed animations for different situations and actions. It's basically a graphical project. Not something like a program that can [insert function here] no, it's more like (What I expect this project to turn out) a folder with many sub-folders, each one containing .PNG files which include different Character Templates for, as mentioned above, each gender, age, situations, actions and maybe more. Thought this will only be available for the ORPG I mentioned later, if by some way the game doesn't make it to the internet then, I would likely still continue working on this Project and use it for another game or make a public release. We will see.

As by now, the current sprite, it's still not ready for public eyes but only for the team, in other words, it's at the very beginning of the process and very far away for version #1. Let's just categorize the sprite in Version 0.0.1. Only an outline and shading have been implemented, and right now I'm looking forward to making a custom & more suitable palette, since the one I used was, sadly, just a rip-off from another sprite.

Thanks for reading,
