I did it! A full 31 days of making game assets for #ASSETober! Today is a big one. Asset-wise, I got the player HUDs done. Then, like a crazy person, I also made a fake magazine cover and article for this fake game (link in comments).

Got started on a couple other player characters for #ASSETober day 30. Here’s Thrash

What do you think? Did I knock #ASSETober day 29 out of the park, or what?

#ASSETober day 28 - Enter player 2!

#ASSETober day 27. Did some street decorations. A fire hydrant, mailbox, parking meter, parking spots and a manhole cover.

Got a couple door styles done for #ASSETober day 26.

Got some windows done for #ASSETober day 25. Working in this perspective is a slight…. pane in the glass…. 😏

Spending way too much time on this rooftop stuff here on #ASSETober, day 23. Revamped the ground texture to be more subtle, and popped in an AC compressor, a vent and some random pipes.

Finished yesterday’s water tower and whipped up a few more rooftop decorations for #ASSETober day 22.

Well, my Apple Pencil died before I could finish this water tower for #ASSETober day 21 (I was going to add some pipes and a ladder), but it’s close enough to share the WIP.

#ASSETober day 20 was way less exciting, but I did get some tiles for making rooftops and building facades started.

Started some level/background art for day 19 of #ASSETober. It wasn’t exactly exciting, so I popped some of the character art on it too.

Day 18 of #ASSETober. Another week wrapped up, and another baddie with a hurt/death animation.

Almost forgot to post my day 17 #ASSETober sprites. I decided to call this guy a Stockroach, and he has a dive attack now.

#ASSETober day 16. Business Roach.

On #ASSETober day 15, I give you.. KASPLOOSH! (Picture these animations with slime all particle effects)

For #ASSETober day 14, I started working on a Slimey Executive that can move around as a puddle and attack you from below. Picture this with some fun slime ball particle effects as it shoots upward.

#ASSETober day 13, these un-dead guys can now become re-dead....

#ASSETober day 11, they can now beat you up with these deadly weapons. Here’s the golf club shank.

#ASSETober day 11. Weaponized zombies walk with a little more purpose.

For #ASSETober day 10, I did an idle variation when they have a weapon.

#ASSETober day 9, my zombie dude has an attack now!

Day 8, a zombie walk animation… he just kinda drags the back leg along. This will look a lot better when it actually moves across a screen lol. #ASSETober

#ASSETober day 7 (wow, it’s been a whole week already!) You can swap the hair on this guy and palette shift him to get a huge variety of corporate zombies to beat up.

#ASSETober day 6. Nothing too fancy today,just some damage/knockdown sprites, but that’s technically a full set for a simple beat-em-up character now, so yay!

Getting this one in under the wire. #ASSETober day 5! One of those bi-directional attacks these games let you do when you hit attack and jump at the same time.

Technically it’s only 11pm on the 3rd for me, but I got my #ASSETober day 4 sprite done early, and it’s Saturday for most of the world already, so here it is! Jumping and airborne attacks! If you’re curious about my software, these were all made in @pixaki.com on iOS.

Man, I was just gonna rough this out and finish it later tonight, but I got sucked in and blew half a day that should have been spent on my day job work. Anyway, here’s a simple attack combo for #ASSETober day 3. Now I gotta get back to work….

A lil walk animation for day 2 of #ASSETober

Here’s the first sprite I made for my #ASSETober daily drawing challenge. Read about it here: psychogoldfish.newgrounds.com/news/post/15...

Excessive smartphone use already leads to less cognitive capability. The brain is like a muscle, and when technology does all your thinking for you, you never build that muscle. This sort of tech is just going to make that even worse.

Want a unique art challenge next month? More details at psychogoldfish.newgrounds.com/news/post/15... Example assets stolen from @kenney.nl

I gave that daily drawing game assets challenge some more thought and decided to write it up as a proper event. I'm calling it #Assetober and you can read more about it here: psychogoldfish.newgrounds.com/news/post/15... Spread the word!

I don't know if I'm gonna even try Silksong on day one. I hear it's... FULL OF BUGS

One thing I love to do that I really don’t show much, is making game sprites, mostly because that usually involves making a whole ass game. BUT, what if I did one little Halloween/horror inspired sprite set every day in October? What if YOU did it too?

Keeping the doodle train rolling. Did a sheet of "Blob Bots" last night. (I made some blobby shapes, represented in blue, then turned them into robots) Hit me with some prompts, I may just use them if I feel like doodling again today!

I did a doodle last night. Figured I'd share it in case anyone needs some motivation today.... #GetBackToWork

Here's an old gem for #TakeoverTuesday @Newgrounds Super Monkey Poop Fight! Classic arcade-style action, with oldschool NG poop humor. Play it now! www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/...

Posting this late, but happy NG 30th! #newgrounds #ng30

I would like to say thank you guys for all the support you have given to my family with sharing and donating to our cause. We're still far from our goal tho. so I will mention that I'm open for Commissions/Art Requests and ask you to continue to share! #help #Emergency #commission

Programming professionally is fun when you get to launch *shiny new feature people can actually see*, but then you are dragged into the void of *Make shitty prototype of shiny new thing work better and have cleaner, readable, code* and feel like shit while everyone is expecting *Shiny NEXT thing*

Just a little minor update on Newgrounds. If load a game with gamepad support on mobile, it'll tell you it might nor work, but you can try it anyway. If you have a gamepad connected to your phone, you should be able to play a bunch of games you couldn't before.
