There's no transparency in OHR. That's most likely scripted sprite changes triggered by walking on shaded tiles. Though..... That's more impressive honestly.

We're actually not using the OHR, but I'm not 100% clear on what it is we are using. Our tiles are 32x32, and the extra space is definitely a help.


I can clarify now, the game was made in IkaDB or something of the sort.
It was not made using the OHR, though feel free to be impressed and imagine it is.

That does explain the weird screenshot size.

Gonna post the demo here, and see if maybe that's the cause for some of the skittishness. We've posted it to 3 forums, 2 of which are usually pretty nice for Hawk, and have gotten pretty much 0 response. Not even "YOU GUYS SUCK!". Hawk's talking like he doesn't want to keep on working on this.

So, if this is the end of Hydration 2, what's next for those lovable developers?

Hawk's making music for a semi-secret project that doesn't involve me, and I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to work on next.

Rumors of the project's death were greatly exaggerated. No real news yet, but we've had a few meetings to sort out what we can improve, what we need to change, and what needs to be accomplished to finish this thing. Seems to be equal parts programming, equal parts art. [/img]

What's this? A new interface? And is that Marcus actually being displayed during the battle? Remarkable! I wonder if this means someone has to draw battle backdrops...

I love your innovative rock-paper-scissors-brick-poop battle system.

Hahaha! Hawk actually made that his IRC Quit message. (He also made those graphics, and now wants me to do new ones. Thanks.)


The battle against lethargy continues, as I try to make a decent backdrop. I got Hawk to import my first lazy attempt, so now at least I know where everything needs to be positioned to make it suitable. This is dangerously close to actual art, and I'm not sure I'm gonna do it justice.

Can't help but notice a lot of devblogs up on Slimesalad, and I think we all know who started that trend.




Thanks, Sakurai!

Hey Giz,

Thought you might like to take a break from Hydration 2 slavery to watch the trailer of Don't Push the Button: The Movie starring Cameron Diaz.

http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/thebox/

They're not calling it that, of course, but we all know that's what it really is.

That settles it. Whatever I do after this is gonna involve the button. I've ignored that cute little fellow for too long.

Have kinda been ignoring the forums and internet in general the past few weeks. I think Hawk wants to have a second demo out by the tenth, but I'm not sure I'm gonna keep my end up. Wasted a bunch of time on what I'd term an "Impressionistic" desert, but it doesn't look right, and hte focus should be on the sun rather than the sand anyway. Got a much better start going using Paint.net's ability to do like a percentage based dithering, though I'm still debating how exactly to do the sand. Might just reuse the maptiles.

Okay, first day back on the job. Since I last posted here, I've got the battle backdrop "Good enough" for our current state of development. I used a zoom filter to give it a sense of action, while also muddying the details of my really bad backdrop sand. Been sick the past week, so things have been really slow, but this morning was a breakthrough: THREE new enemies, all of 'em pretty good. Might need a little polish, but that can come later. I think I'm gonna start working first thing when I wake up all the time, seem to be more productive. Still dodging the cave backdrop, maybe I'll put a little in on that tomorrow.
