Secret Project

I wanted to share something fairly exciting. The sprite to the left there is not for the Ophidian Wars top-down game, but for something else (yet still related to Ophidian Wars). You might recognize this guy as a Quan Spectral - one of the best received characters in Ophidian Wars so far. What is this all about? How can a 2D sprite look THIS amazing? Patience, patience.

So while our updates have been less frequent, I can assure you that we're hard at work over here and determined to release something that you will all call super mega awesome.

More Portrait Art?!

Yes that's right. Here's more nice pieces from Craig that shows the up close and emotional side of our important support character, the Kilflame Soldier. As mentioned in previous posts, Kilflame Soldiers are a dynamic group, with varying allegiances and attitudes. These pieces are nice preview of the different tones that your conversations with the soldiers will carry. Some will be quite angry that you'd even have the nerve to speak with them, others will secretly and quietly try to help you, and some will aggressively come on to you. It's only natural.

These portrait pieces will be inserted into our dialogue windows, sliding in from the left/right of the screen when dialogue is active. If you are tired of their blabbering, you can hit a button to skip over it. :)
