bulma's right, we need plenty of layer 1 characters

I seriously can't think of a good design for a martial artist. So I'm passing the buck. Anyone wanna give it a shot?

I threw this together, what do you think?

Hmmm, green is a bit loud (plus the green-white contrast looks a little superhero). Let's see...

I wanted the same earth tones concept, but more clearly defined clothing, so it doesn't all look green.

Oh I like that.

agreed, What other L1 characters do we need sorted?

I will check the lists.

Aside from minor/cameo characters, and unfinished stuff floating around, it looks done.

Great, lets get back to the layer 1 thread then and make some map plans.

Hey all, I'm still trying to get something together to kinda organize things, but I just thought I'd drop by to show you this.

I found this on tumblr and it looks like it might make a good Kevin?


It's not as spikey but it looks similar to what you guys were saying.

Nice. (Can't really do mohawks tho)

We could find a sprite artist to add one or something.

*slowly raises hand* I could give it a shot if you like.

Go for it

Wait, do we have a design for Kevin's layer 1?

Yea, there's a sprite for him on page 7. If you want an actual drawing though, i could do that if you want. (Yes, I still remember this topic lol.)

This topic has been dormant for a while D:

and I'm pretty sure the sprite of him is just his layer 2 look.
If we don't have one is it okay if I let someone design it? I'm having them do something for this.

...So frustrating. Everything has slowed to a crawl.

No, we don't have a layer 1 for Kevin on page 7. That was a layer 2 picture.

His real world (layer 2) was supposed to be a mohawk look, which I couldn't do because there isn't really one on the customizer so I made his bald. The real real world (layer 3) I have no concept of what he looks like, but probably no mohawk as everyone else is in labcoats and such. And the game world I don't have a concept either, but mohawk isn't good there, as everyone is sorta medieval.

To try to get things moving again, I think I'll come up with some layer 1 and layer 3 sprites.

Layer 2 Kevin


(This bald should be a mohawk, someone sprite it please)

Layer 1 Kevin



(I wanted this sort of look, sort of a thief with gauntlets)

Layer 3 Kevin



(I just sort of improvised. I'm not sure about this one)

What did we say Kevin's username was in the game?

Oh I like the Layer 1 look.

I actually thought we talked about Layer 3 Kevin being the same as Layer 2 Kevin. Since Kevin works with the scientists he just imported his original image into the virtual world since it wouldn't cause any commotion. Maybe his Layer 3 he let his hair grow out more though and he got rid of the mohawk.

We'll be able to get up and running soon. I have a sort of sketch of the beginning town, although I'm not quite sure where to upload it.

Yea lol; I remember it being around... Well, the general development starting maybe around 6 months ago?

And sure, no problem. :-p Everyone can get a chance. : )

Oh wait, it looks like bulma made a design, I kinda like it

And we can still start back up >:D we just need motivation and organization. (Which is my job now )

Okay, layer 3 has similar hair. What sort of outfit does he wear in the real world though?

Also good work getting these maps done. Screenshots!

Mediafire is a good high density storage site, and unlike most they're free, and don't try to close you out after certain time periods (I update and replace to be safe though). If we have a common username and password that the programmers can use, they can pool game code.

I'm not quite sure what the term pool means :\

But yeah, I'll redraw them in photoshop or something, cause all they are right now are sketches in a notebook.

And I'd assume Layer 3 Kevin would have a labcoat when he's working. Otherwise he seems like a vest kinda guy.

Pool as in "anyone can swim." When something is pooled, it's given so anyone can use it, because the user wants to help people.

Basically, you can login right now under that username and ID that I gave (I'm not living in a parallel world that nobody can see that thread Pool Account, right?) and upload some snippet of game project you've got so far. Then Rune could download it, make additions/corrections, and upload what he's got.

Of course, this sometimes happens.

I assumed Kevin was a friend rather than one of the researchers, so I figured making him dressed like a researcher was bad.

Well he is porting himself into Layer 2, so he at least has some sort of relation to the researchers. I guess he could be wearing normal clothes, as long as we get across that he's helping the researchers save Johnny.
