Stabby Story

[Flutter Skye]

Well, I just though that it would be awesome if we had a version of CS+ With sprites with the sprites of the Stabyourself.net community. This is going to be similiar to the ANSYS Mod, so you post you sprites here, and if they are good I'll include them. The Cave Story+ Sprites are in ProgramFiles/Steam/Steamapps/common/CaveStory+/data/base
We will have 4 Character replacements, each for Easy/Normal/Hard difficulity, and Curly Story. Idiot* will be the normal difficulity character.
If you can't sprite, you are allowed to ask a friend or something.
*If he will allow, of course.
Here, have a screenshot:

People Participating:

Code: Select all

-Idiot9.0 as Normal Difficulity character
-mindnomad as Misery
-SauloFX As Mannan
-LightingFire As king
-vakema123 as Kazuma
-Turtle95 as Kenpachi
-GemWrecker as Cthulhu
-HugoBDesigner as Hard/Easy difficulity character
-Jorichi as Jenka and the puppies.
-Renhoek as Balrog

[mindnomad]

I'll join as Misery I suppose

[Wilo]

I'll be the replacement for hard mode

[SauloFX]

I'm in, already doing stuff

wohoo

[LightningFire]

Holy shit yes. I'll be the Easy/Hard mode one. Or maybe even King.

[BobTheLawyer]

I call the rockets

[B-Man99]

"B-Man's dog" for Arthur
No exceptions

[Turtle95]

I'm going to apparently be that Hermit Dealer guy Quote steals the Polar Star from. According to Skye. I feel that's too major of a character for me. I choose to be that fishing guy:

(So everyone knows who I'm talking about)

[Vakema123]

I call being Kazuma (Or whoever sue's brother is.) Either that or Itoh.

[renhoek]

I think Idiot was joking when we were talking about a giant collab edition...

Also I already did a mod for people who don't have CS+ (Download it anyway I have a surprise)

[idiot9.0]

Yeah I was joking about it. But hey you already have them just use my sprites I guess.
Also Renhoek your mod is.... something.

Also also, Bob pick a character, not a weapon. Being rockets are fine if there's not a lot of NPC's but this game is full of them so be a person for fuck's sake.
I know I'm not running this but come on.

[Flutter Skye]

I agree with idiot, the weapons and projectiles won't be changed.
Anyways, good job Saulo, these sprites are great.
When anyone will finish their sprites, post them in this thread.
EDIT: NpcRegu has been updated, if you plan on being Itoh/Toroko/Misery/whatever, use this as a base:

[HowToEatGirafes]

Can you guys leave a place for the green robot ? I want to be him but i'm on linux ... (can't get that paint.net ) i'll be back on windows next week .

[Wilo]

Nevermind I'll be the second phase Doctor (Muscle Doctor) if that's possible.

[idiot9.0]

How about you just be the doctor and make everything for him instead of being only one phase?

[Wilo]

Fine, whatever, that'll work.

[LightningFire]

Alright, I'm almost done (I decided to be King BTW):

trying to mimic cave story's art is so hard

All I need to do is the box art, which I have no idea how I'm possibly going to get around to make it.

[Hatninja]

This sounds absolutely AWESOME!
I got dibs on Jack!
Also... the fishing mimiga is kanpachi.

[Flutter Skye]

Woah, nicely done LF! Also good luck to the person who will take Sue, hehe.
Good news: I figured out how to edit the text boxes, so now we can have real names instead of vanillia ones! Tell me how do you want to be named In-Game.

[Vakema123]

Tell me how do you want to be named In-Game.

Jack Noir.

[renhoek]

I posted this in the steam chat room but I guess I'll post it here too.

EDIT: now with faces.

[HowToEatGirafes]

Tell me how do you want to be named In-Game.

Mecha pingu

[LightningFire]

Tell me how do you want to be named In-Game.

LF, of course.
Also, is anyone willing to do all the box arts, because I really don't know how I'm possibly going to make it as good as the original.

[Flutter Skye]

Alright, I decided I'll make the names the username.
Also, I need some text to replace the current one, so suggest.

[Vakema123]

Also, if anyone wants to redo my portrait, feel free. It's terrible.

[HansAgain]

I'll be Booster!

Yep, the background is transparent, just make it black and here we go!
(Also, yep, that little red dot on the last two frames is supposed to be blood)

[MM102]

I posted this in the steam chat room but I guess I'll post it here too.

[gemwrecker]

Alright, I'm in.
I took the easy character (Hopefully):

Hope this will make the cut.

[LightningFire]

You literally just slapped your face on top of the original sprites. I mean you didn't even try to shade it.
Try to make something more original.

[Shank]

My attempt at Cthulhu.

EDIT:
Second attempt

[Flutter Skye]

@GemWrecker, try to come up with something more original.
@Shank, a simple recolor, no.

[Vakema123]

@GemWrecker, try to come up with something more original.
@Shank, a simple recolor, no.

Mine was essentialy a recolor, and Gem's looks pretty much like his actual face. Same black hair and everything.

[Shank]

@Shank, a simple recolor, no.

Not banging on Saulo, but wasn't his a recolour as well?

[Jorichi]

Scuttles as the dogs.


Catching Gecko's is way more fun.
Btw, his bark in-game is amazing.

[copy]

If I could then I would put fem-veond up for Curly, yet I can't sprite for shit.
So have fun with your sprite mod and what-not.

[Firaga]

@Shank, a simple recolor, no.

Not banging on Saulo, but wasn't his a recolour as well?

There's a difference between effort and a blatant Paint Bucket recolor.

Saulo's is visually similar, but it's not a recolor. The same shape was most likely used, but the heavy shading from the original Mannan isn't on Saulos.

[Shank]

Fair enough.
I also have this but I highly doubt it will do any better than the last one.

[Flutter Skye]

I don't like it.
Also Jorichi thanks for reminding me that Gecko's are Gecko's. I though they official name was Scuttles...

[gemwrecker]

Alright, second try!

You might have noticed some difference, but I want it to look "Cave Story" styled. This is all the differences:
Shading, Green pants, Human-looking skin (Non-gray), No headwear, No cape.

The old one:

Notice the differences?

[idiot9.0]

Jorichi those things are adorable.

[copy]

Quick test with my horrible spriting skills, yet basically a recolor.

EDIT: Tried adding Melonberry bat Kat to my copy of CS+ yet I'll need to change around the color pallete severely, seeing as how this happens.

[Flutter Skye]

Sorry but no.
First, It's a recolor like you said.
Second, Curly is already taken.

[copy]

Didn't notice that Curly was taken, so my bad.

[idiot9.0]

Wait who took Curly? I double checked here but didn't see anyone take her.

[Flutter Skye]

Wait who took Curly? I double checked here but didn't see anyone take her.

It's a surprise.

[Jorichi]

Ofcourse the gecko's need to be returned to their proper owner...


How she looks in-game:

She feels a it too saturated, so I might come back and fix that up.

Edit:
Someone insisted to use a closed mouth on Sundae because Jenka has it too.
The eyes look good, but the mouth looks like shit to me, but this is what they wanted:

[LightningFire]

Wait, is there a download for this anywhere? It seems like there is somewhere.

[LightningFire]

Oh hey I actually managed to finish this:

It's nowhere to being as good as actual CS art, but it's something at least.

[gemwrecker]

Alright, been digging around for music in Newgrounds for a while now. And I've found some great music for a trailer.

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/168734
This is the first one I found. A little bit unserious, and the trailer may be a little bit unserious if you want me to choose this one. But I'm pretty sure that the trailer will be remembered if I choose it.

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/570186
Pretty sure that this is not the one to choose, but it's better than nothing. With this song, it'll probably be a little bit more of the action rather than cutscenes and stuff.

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/507560
Probably the most fitting. It's more of a game music rather than all the other ones. It'll be much easier to put all the things in the trailer with this one. However, it will be harder for me to edit it, but I've never had a challenge editing a video before.

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/459080
This is where the base drops. Enough said.

Also, I'm going away tomorrow. But it's just for a day. See y'all!

[B-Man99]

Wait who took Curly? I double checked here but didn't see anyone take her.

It's a surprise.

inb4 it's one or your obsessions
Wait but we've both been obsessed with Curly before so don't you think it feels a little weird replacing her
It does for me
Then again no one's hearing me point out ranch dressing
Literally two people understand the joke I just made

Also since my potentially dead dog is filling in for Arthur and that isn't exactly a character role as most people are taking on do you have any ideas for stuff I could contribute to? eggplant
