Hi all,

I am working on a retro shooter.
For now dubbed Elevatorshooter 7D.
It was part of the 7dfps contest which is now finished (the contest).
My friend does all the coding. I do the music and pixelart.



It's very heavy on pixelart and kinda looks like Wolfenstein.
Except for the fact that you are a stationary target.
I am a big toy-enthousiast and like to put in some GI-Joe style characters.



The pixels are huge indeed. I work on pixel size and then double it to make it look extra chunky.
I am not really an artist so i really need your helps. Especially with the animations.
I will share some stuff here as the game progresses.Here are some walk cycles that i think could use some work.
I post regular updates on my site. www.grundysoft.com.

What do you think?

Ok. It's been some weeks since my last post.
Stuff has changed since then.
I even dare to say that i got better at this pixel art thing.
To be honest i was a total noob when i started this weeks ago.
I still am, only less so.

It took some time for me to get grips with color palettes.
And then i took a tried and tested 16 color palette from the internet.
And added 1 shade of dark red and 2 shades of pure grey.

We are close to releasing a demo.
This means that people can play our game.
An important moment to test our gameplay.


Here is a screenshot.
