Pirate Arr

[Pat]

The attack animation looks very unsmooth, but I like the idea. The only other problem I can pick with it is that he is wearing a captain hat.

The unsmooth part is on purpose. And captain hat, ehh... we'll just see what happens ;)

I know its on purpose, but the blade just flips.

Ahem.... Parrot on teh head. That is all.

Cero said it was ok to post a sprite in his topic so here.


Bird/Pirate hat



Bird on shoulder


Bird on head.

The shoulder looks REALLY weird. It looks more like some sort of ribbon or bowtie.

 ;D Parrot on the head! ty Crozier.

Bird/Pirate hat

I like that one. The others look odd. Good idea though. Now just add a peg leg and a hook hand or something and we've got a ship's captain!

@ Cero, I love the idea and everything, the attacking animation fits perfectly in SO.

@ Croz, XD Awesome birds :D lol at the "bird on head".

[crozier]

Yeah my personal favorite is the first one.
2nd one shoulder is odd.
Wow 4 posts in a minute!

[Demeni]

I really hope this makes it in. Then I will be able to say I had an impact on the game :D The first one is the one that.... isn't weird.  ;)

Arg!
Now he has a hook for a hand. Er wait sticks dont have hands.

[Demeni]

Two things.
1. His arm looks like its rubber.
2. He's picking his nose with a hook. Ouch...

Nice, pirates with parrots added :D

[wrinkles]

What if you start from scratch with the captain.. i know it would be difficult.. but look at the dark sage.. make it a tad larger than the other pirates and put an outfit on him..
i like the pirate with the red hat.. maybe, the pirate with the red hat could be a weaker version of the pirate (like a beginner pirate), while the other pirate with original pirate hat could be a stronger version.. (sorry if i dosnt make sense this keyboard is screwing up and i cant think straight lol)

Also, power up the pirate hat, so people would actually have a use from the ship area. How about +6 STR +2 VIT +2 DEF? Why not having a new, powerful hat in this new area?

I personally like this idea.. what if there are 2 pirate hat availible, one with the a parrot and one without
- the difference.. the one with the parrot gets up 2 INT while the one without gets up 2 vit (plus the 6 STR and 2 DEF to both of them)
this would then have 2 new hats availible

Damn Cero, you really beat me to the chase on this one. Lol, I had already started thinking of Ideas to create a Pirate but I was gonna ask for your help anyways, So I guess I should just post them here so we could possibly make a collaboration xD

So here is what I got so far, I blew it up so you could see some of the progression. The farthest to the left is the ideal size I was thinking of, just slightly larger than the normal pirate hat and stick figure, and I think the body should be a little huskier too.



Edit: I also think that there should be two types of Pirates at the spawn, perhaps one with a pirate hat and cutlass, and the other with a bandanna and hook. The main pirate ( the one with Cutlass and Pirate Hat) would be slightly larger/taller/faster than the rest.

2nd Edit: The image got re-sized when I posted it here, so it's a tad bit blurry when it comes to the smaller images so here is the direct link: http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1121/pirateface.png
