It's been a while since I posted a new tutorial ( and I know I still have some of the older ones to fix ) but it's been a bit of a rough start into the year so far.
Today I felt inspired though and a simple idea for a really quick tutorial on how to make cogs for a steam-punk background turned into something bigger. I would like to write a series of tutorials on one game project - a super crate boy style platform shooter - and cover every element needed to make the complete game (from the main character and it's animations to the logo, the background elements to the UI and the screens that go with it like game over, options, loading, help, etc.).
I spent the better part of today on a first design and this is what it looks like at the moment.
I plan to separate the steps into different tutorial posts (in a slightly changed format with larger images) covering aspects like 'creating cogs', 'making pipes', 'creating platforms', 'logo creation to match the theme', etc.
I will also compile everything into one compact pdf document as download.
Please let me know if you think this could be interesting. I need you feedback before I venture into the biggest tutorial project I have attempted so far.
In other words - leave a comment!

It would be so great! Can't wait to read your tutorial. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Wow, looks epic!
ReplyDeleteIt is very interesting.
That seems like a great idea! I like that the main-character's feet are needle-like and that the enemies are blobs. Maybe they could burst if he jumped on them.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, good luck. It looks great so far
Love the idea!!. Would greatly appreciate that huge effort
ReplyDeleteThis is already epic!
ReplyDeleteIt is great. I'm looking forward into it. :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing projects ! Always love your tutorials
ReplyDeleteI am very interested in this tutorial
ReplyDeleteThis sounds awesome, especially as I am just about to start to try and do some art for my first game.
ReplyDeleteI have just got into creating my own games and your tutorials are what help me keep motivated when I feel like giving up. I look forward to learning what you have to teach
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! Oh please do :D
ReplyDeleteGreat! Please, put the final art (source) available via donations. I can't wait to see...
ReplyDeleteYes, by all means. I look forward to going through these tutorials.
ReplyDeleteWe need your tutorials, keep them coming :)
ReplyDeleteYes please. Great idea. :)
ReplyDeleteChris - I'm an independent software developer working on making some app store games for a little money on the side. I've just recently discovered your blog, but over the last several weeks I've been devouring every post you've made. I've drawn cavemen, helicopters, treasure chests, almost everything you've posted. Your blog has taken my meager artistic skills to a level I didn't think possible. I've even bought your premium tutorials, well worth the money. Please, please, PLEASE keep your awesome tutorials coming!
ReplyDeleteThat would be absolutely amazing Chris. Would love to get an insight on how to go about this kind of thing from start to finish.
ReplyDeleteEven if you don't manage it, thank you so much for helping me improve my art beyond anything I could imagine,
This would be great!
ReplyDeleteI bought all the old tutos so if you compile them in a PDF and want to sell it I will get it ASAP.
wow, great idea! looking forward to the character development!
ReplyDeleteIt will definitely be interesting. Looking forward.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! You are so talented, thanks for sharing your experience!
ReplyDeleteYes please, if you can! I'm especially curious about logo design.
ReplyDeletereally interesting!
ReplyDeleteLove the level design, really effective.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Will follow this tutorial and build the game in Construct 2 (for myself & for learning purpose).
