stuff I make
Nice is the first animation the slasher ???
any way they're very good
I like the short sword (3rd sprite). Seems like you really nailed the weight of the sword.
I wait for the day you officially start doing graphics for Stick Online. I'd say it's about god damn time. You're talented and intelligent, but it's not for me to decide.
All your animations are fluent, well colored, well shaded, but for the most part when I think of stick fights I can immediately fit your sprites in it. Keep on doing the great job you always do! :D
Oh and btw... I don't know whether my eyes are deceiving me or not, but I there's an extra frame in the first animation near the end. I can see by the wave from the slash.
If the guy swings the huge 2 hander further away from his body, the range would be OP in the game :P
But I definitely think the short frame count fits in with the game more.

Well it's pretty much the same as GS/IS in v2... It could be compensated by using more energy and having a longer cooldown =)
Naw man, Cero's IS is a bit more, I think. It's because the guy leans forward.
If the same dude used the same swinging motion for the first one, the range would be like, 3 centimeters longer. :D
My only thoughts...the slasher animation just seems a little bit too short...It may need to be that way, but the swing just seems...weird :P

Yes, it seems you're right. Still as I said, it can be compensated with something =P
I'm sure you're aware of this, but on the first two, where the stickman ends up at the end of the swing is not where he is at the beginning which causes him to jump back at the end of the animation. If those were implemented in the game, it would do the same thing, jumping back a few steps in a standing position after the swing. I would think this would not be ideal.

Or it could be a new element? Forcing you to move forward each time you swing.

Exactly what I was thinking. It would open many possibilities.

It could both be an advantage and dis-advantage depending on how it was used.
I guess that would be up to Meiun. I imagine it would have to programmed in that on particular weapon animations, the location of the player moves depending on where the animation ends up. I would think it would be easier to just have the forward foot step backwards instead of the back foot stepping forwards...

Well, if he added relative x gain as a variable for each weapon in the database, it would be easy to implement. I can't possibly know how he handles weapons, but I think he uses a database and keeps all weapons with an id used to retrieve weapon's stats. This could all be bullshit though =/
Hammer is too small imo. You nailed the animations perfectly, excpet for the 3rd, which the stickam looks weird in the last frame. Inferno Sword is amazing, the particle effect is dead on. Good job man. A personal request, please do Whip next.
Nice, I like them a lot. From what I can tell they execute their motions flawlessly. I really love the IS animation. Makes it appear as its a hilt and then the blade is pure fire which I think is amazing. Good Job can't wait to see more.
