Weeell :) This took me recent days and nights to animate my gfx for an upcoming "eat to live" game project. Just decided to see the result before programmer breath some life into my sprites. WARNING! No special programme was used to animate this. Every sprite was carefully moved to it's calculated position by means of Photoshop and Image Ready. The whole 64 frames animation consists of: 1. 64 frames - slow fishes moving right. 2. 64 frames - slow fishes moving left. 3. 32 frames - medium speed fishes moving right. 4. 32 frames - medium speed fishes moving left. 5. 16 frames - fast small fish moving right. 6. 16 frames - fast small fish moving left. 7. 64 frames - seahorse. 8. 42 frames - Fish eat fish :) Can you see this happens? 9. 4 frames - highlights on a bottom. 10. some frames - bubbles. What for? I dunno... Just to see if I can :) Hope you like the result... UPDATE: I found the way to make a screensaver out of it. It could be downloaded from here.

Like looking into an aquarium :) Except aquariums usually don't have people fishing in them. Unless those people are actually cats ^^
The colors look a little off for some reason. Usually when I critique anything I try to offer an alternative but I can't really determine what bugs me.

I was waiting for a shark to eat something. Sat there for about a minute before I realised that it had already looped ^^

This is a great peace. Love the light reflection on the bottom. Amazing...

Actually animating this by hand seems crazy to me, maybe because I also code well.
* Some of the larger fish could really do with an alternate frame.
It would help them not to look so jerky even if they continued to move at a constant rate.
* The sand doesn't really look sandy to me.. from what i recall, a washed out 70% yellow, 30% blue color is common for sand viewed through water
* I like everything on the seabed that isn't the sand. And I like the colors, too.

Woah, so much movement. Impressive.

So interesting! :D
Took me a while to find the eaten fish xD

AMAZING. The idea of jalonso is awesome, if you can do this, you really should. If it was bigger, i would use it for my screensaver for sure. Much more prettier than others non-pixel art i see in web.

jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 12/23/2005 10:10:38 PM

i think the grasses should sway in the water a little bit

lavastorm (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/23/2005 10:50:03 AM

i just saw the game that uses these guys....looks awesome. it'd be cool to get it on my phone.

inkspot (Level 4 Button Man) at 9/10/2005 1:57:51 PM

Now that is awsome.

truth (Level 1 Rookie) at 8/2/2005 9:07:15 AM

beautiful although the last and first scene appear to "jump" a bit

Gas 13 (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 7/22/2005 1:50:58 AM

Unanimated fishes? This could be done. Just give me you mail. It could be rather interesting.

BruceJuice (Level 4 Mercenary) at 7/5/2005 8:51:58 PM

I know i could make it into a screen saver. I'd just need the fish and bg's seperated and inlarged.

DarkAuron (Level 2 Quiet One) at 7/4/2005 10:16:15 PM

Theres just so much going on! WOW.

Faktablad (Level 6 SWAT) at 6/9/2005 5:27:25 AM

Flawless and seamless. Favorites.

Ace02 (Level 1 Private) at 5/8/2005 3:32:43 PM

This is amazing, I really like the reflection stuff on the rocks

ctrl-alt-delete (Level 3 Corporate Drone) at 5/4/2005 4:44:33 PM

I love how the rocks on the bottom fade into the distance. The colors and illumination are gorgeous. It looks just like a real current is reflecting on the ocean floor.

sedgemonkey (Level 11 Master Assassin) at 5/2/2005 12:30:43 AM

I think there's an app that can make animated GIFs into screensavers... I certainly wouldn't mind if it was blown up.

pixelblink (Level 9 Federal Agent) at 5/1/2005 11:42:56 PM

sweet. would make a nice screensaver too if it was larger

sedgemonkey (Level 11 Master Assassin) at 5/1/2005 6:17:20 PM

Love all the little touches all over the place on this. The bright colors, bubbles and highlights on the bottom are all super cool.
