Another thread gave me this idea. And I am going to need a little feedback from all of you to determine how to go from here.

diph.php

This is what I've done so far, it isn't anything very special at all, as I've only sat down with it for about 20 minutes. But I've already ran into a couple of roadblocks that I could use some outside opinions to help me get through.

-I originally wanted him to move with his mouth open, but jump with it closed. This probably won't happen and will result in him constantly chomping while walking. So my question to you is, should he chomp, stay closed all the time, or stay open all the time?
-His feet make running difficult, it won't be a pretty sight as of now, because I can't think of a proper way for his legs to move. If all else fails, I would probably just use the oldest trick in the book and move his feet up one pixel (cropping off the layer that goes under the body) creating the cheap illusion that his legs are rising and falling.

Any ideas/comments?

Mini Ω wouldn't look right when chomping & walking at the same time. I think it would look better if the mouth was open when he's looking up (That would also allow the fireball weapon replacement to look more natural when it's fired, too).

Also, for the "knocked out" sprite, you could have him appear to be partially stuck in the ground (Only the top of the sprite down to the eyes).

You are fully aware that this is a Cave Story Fan Forum, right? (Not the whole thing, but this section of the forum.)

Let's work through this slowly.

You must have signed up for this forum, right? What did you think it was when you signed up?

What do any of your 3 comments have to do with anything G. freeman has actually said? He made the comment that the sprite looked like a piranha plant from super mario bros. Regardless of what you say, this stands. Just because this is a cavestory forum doesn't mean this sprite cannot be compared to other games. I will not stand such nonsense. There is no reason to be getting upset with him for such a simple comment.

I agree. It is odd that he didn't know where he was though... :/

Good, good.. I think this is an excellent plan for the movements. I'll be sure to cite you when i release the .pbm files.

Someone should do a sprite for a generic mimiga... And then make it so they can hulkinate of out their sweater when they go near red flowers.
