+Al_Nafuur Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 I have searched the internet for some explosion animations. But I couldn't find anything that would suit my purposes. I am looking for some explosion animations for the Helicopter (multicolored sprite double wide): and the enemies (single color sprite single wide): Wide and color(s) might be changed during the explosion. If anyone would like to try his hand at this, I would be very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Al_Nafuur Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Very interesting Youtube video about explosion animation in games: as far as I understand the video we need: an initial fiery flash spiky projections flying debris a crescent cloud of smoke evaporating balls of fire after an expanding cloud of fire this should be easy with 8px and one color per line. I used piskelapp to create the first version of an explosion: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Al_Nafuur Posted April 3, 2023 Author Share Posted April 3, 2023 I am thinking about developing this game further. There are a few thinks i would like to change and add. Increase the playfield resolution (The resolution of 32x3 was a reminiscence to H.E.R.O but it is limiting the level design severely) Changing the scoring to add the scores of the levels and not start every level with 3 lives (Maybe a new HSC id is necessary). Improvement of helicopter control new enemies/obstacles Title screen music In game music bug fixes Ideas and support (especially with the music stuff and level design) is most welcome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
