I’m done (mostly) with the commission I was working on, so the site is back in active mode. Between Double Dragon’s announced return as a fighting game mode in the upcoming Kunio-Kun game<\/a> and Hardcore Gaming 101<\/a> deepening their articles on the Double Dragon series throughout March, I figure the 22nd day of this month would be perfect.<\/p>\n

Custom Sprites<\/a> – the Double Dragon series<\/a> finally gets its own custom sprite gallery and new sprites of both Billy and Jimmy Lee, Marian, and Linda. You might have seen the Lee Brothers’ sprites in some preview .GIFs, but I’ve tuned them up a bit since then. I also improved the earlier sprites of Williams and Roper a bit and their out on the streets, too. All of that newness is also in the GFX Generators<\/a> with a lot of palettes. I’m not done with the Double Dragon characters, so expect more redone sprites, different outfits and added characters soon.<\/p>\n

I’ve wanted to rewrite the GFX Generator engine for a while so I could add things that the current version can’t do. It’s been a side project since last year and you’ll finally start to see some early versions of it this Spring. I made a blog post<\/a> to talk a bit about that new version, including why part of it almost drove me insane (well, more than usual).<\/p>\n

The #GameAudioGDC Bundle \u2013 Part 2<\/a> is a free 10 GB download of high-quality and royalty free (a.k.a. hassle free) sound effects suitable for video games and videos. They’re from packs sold by Sonniss<\/a>, so that’s only the tip of the iceberg of what they have to offer.<\/p>\n

Steam has RPG Maker VX Ace<\/a> for 90% off!, so any game makers may want to check that out.<\/p>\n

Moira<\/a> – a magical adventure with a look inspired by classic GameBoy games and the heart of an SNES action\/adventure game!
