With the addition of Bill to our team, I thought I'd take a bit to talk about him and just what he'll be doing for HTD. I've known Bill for well over a decade, and knew from the word go that he would be the one capable of matching my style without even blinking. My goal is to have him focus on what I don't necessarily excel at, and vice versa. Therefore, I'll still be handling all character animation myself. You won't have to worry about later animations looking slightly off as if they were handled by someone else or anything.

For his first assignment, Bill is hard at work on the first tier of water spells that are set to be added next week.
=P
ReplyDelete*whistle* How long were you waiting here hitting refresh, I wonder?
DeleteJust enough for the time travel =P Next week its Sly's turn ;) Someone said he'd beat us =P I keep my think, I'm not really into the 1st board but while it exists... here I am. =P
Deletethat asci (isn't it) confirmation thing etc takes some time too... damn it lol
Big wellcome to Bill that as I said on the other blog needs to become Bil for more awesomeness =P
Btw Ant approved except for 1 thing IMO... should have 2 more arms =P
Yay a post. It is officially Monday :P Awesome work, can't wait to see what else Bill has in store. :)
ReplyDeleteExcept that I didn't post until it was actually tuesday. I hope no one actually relies on these posts to keep their schedules straight, or I might feel terrible.
DeletePlease, nobody take this offensive, but if they DO rely on this for their schedules, then they have no life. However, it does show how much they care for this awesome game, which makes up for it.
DeleteDon't worry, I knew it was Monday. I had a midterm so I had to go to class. And today is Tuesday because I had lab. :P
DeleteWhy use the HTD Art Blog to tell the days when you have courses to do that for you. :)
Glad for an update though. Definitely glad. :)
Precisely (what Sly said)! Besides the university "details", my snakes have feeding schedules I have to pay attention or they'll remind me XD
DeleteI love the pictures in the top right and bottom left corners. The others look quite awkward. I hope to see more of what you can do and how exactly it will be incorporated into HTD. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a boss or major enemy cuz its a fusion of 3
DeleteGod King likes this :)
ReplyDeleteLove it. Maybe have 5 for a boss wave in a level filled with Weapon, Shield, and Worker caste? Maybe add a Healer caste that heals nearby ants. Workers move fast, have low defense, low attack. Shield cast has low speed, high defense, and low attack. Weapons have high attack, low defense, and low speed. Healers have low defense, low attack, and low speed, but heal nearby enemies. The Ant Lancers would be high attack, high defense, and medium speed. In the final wave, they come with a Wueen Ant, which spawns random ants to fight for her. As she is the boss, she is low-speed, high health and defense, and doesn't attack. Just wanted to see if you guys like my idea.

We have some pretty incredible ideas in store. Unfortunately they may not see the light of day for months to come yet, but it's something to look forward to for sure.
DeleteDoes Bill have a blog?If so, could you give us a link in the next post?
