I always enjoyed having Cedric as a sidekick in King's Quest 5. He's memorable and adds just the right amount of charme/cheesyness to the whole game and its journey.
I never played KQ5 with voice acting though lol

01.08.2024 13:03 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Disliking what you create is always somewhat part of the process I think. In that regard, it helps me to realize, that, when you begin working on something, in the end it will always be different than what you envisioned. Sometimes VASTLY different. Especially when you work on something for long.

Regarding Owlsgard - it at times feels as if someone else made it... heck, I was 24 when I started it!๐ด

Yep that's also the approach I am going for. I think Duo works great to get to know the grammar and basics of communication (and how it keeps you refreshing what you already know), but at some point it's important to immerse yourself with the language by consuming media that works for you

09.12.2023 20:47 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The db16 palette by DawnBringer - the most versatile palette I ever used!
All of Owlsgards assets were done with this palette as the base. The character sprites stick to only these 16 colors, while the backgrounds use blended versions.
I wonder if anyone noticed! ;D
Ever wondered what the entirety of Owlsgards intro scene looked like?

If this gives you "SNES era language selection screen"-flashbacks, I think I succeeded. :3
29.11.2023 13:49 โ ๐ 17 ๐ 3 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I can honestly say that I came up with roughly 90% of Owlsgards plot and puzzles while I was going for really long walks outside. I even saw deers once!๐ฆ
Walks are underrated!
Moving on with recreating some in-game graphics for the french and spanish version.

True, but I wanted to be able to add all the little animations that I wanted (gleaming letters, letters moving down when clicked on etc)๐

I especially love this one here because of how absolutely unnecessary the prerender was, at least in hindsight. But I did it anyway - never change a running system!๐
