Staceybob Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hi guys, So some may have heard that I have been asked to develop some graphics for someones game and I put the idea forward for us to develop a husky sledding game as there is such a lack of one! We've decided to go ahead with the idea, and seeing as I will be creating the huskies I thought I'd like to ask you guys a few questions to see what you style you would like to see in the game, bearing in mind that it will be flash based so it will not compete with 3D graphics (at least yet!) but it will be more 2D graphics. Thanks for your help in advance as it will greatly help me develop some graphics to put forward for the idea. Stacey xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Can you not video Huskies running from the perspective that you need. Then copy / trace / rotoscope them to create your running husky graphics ?? a bit like this smiley. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better if both the backgrounds and dogs are hand drawn in order to give the game a unique look and the game it's own style.

Stacey xxx If you Rotoscope over the video (essentially trace over the individual frames) you can do it in your own style/design but you'll retain the quality of movement.

These are all ideas we've considered and really like, but we're not sure how detailed we are going to make the game yet. We would like to make it so you can raise your own lead dog and run a team and you have a selection of different coloured huskies to choose from. He wants me to start with rough graphics first and then we'll go from there as to developing how far we go. Stacey xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elyse Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Wow - I really like this idea. This is what the video game world is lacking - HUSKY games! What would the gameplay be like? Did you guys flesh that out yet? Free-roaming or just a race-like setup? And I voted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
