i like #6 best but can whoever made that one put booster flames out of the back and a green island on it?
Hey everyone! So, in order to get that green/blue background I decided to write some code for the game so I can manually control the camera without flying a plane and all that complexity It's been fun exploring the islands and taking screenshots. And, more importantly, I created a very quick draft of the icon and I'm super excited about it! The thruster flames in the icon are really really bad so far, so I'm still looking for a way to get some really cool fire (can't really take a screenshot of the in-game fire). And here's the source image for the background if you guys would to play around with it. Here are some other screenshots I took just for fun if you want to take a look. Here's the full size graphic: And here's a link to the PSD http://jshmrsn.com/sc/ColorIcon.psd Let me know what you think! -Josh
It looks great, but the flame is going abit in the wrong direction (too far up). I'll try to change that! The other Pictures of the game look really nice.
Yeah, the flame was just a totally temporary thing to show the general colors. I'm going to make something better in my 3D application or something. (In fact, the whole thing is very temporary, I just got excited so I posted an early draft )
I changed the direction of the flame abit! I hope this looks better: (this is a .png!) the flame looks pretty good now i'd say The background looks abit pixelish. Download as .psd: SF2_BG.psd (1022 KB) (I use Gimp)
Hi, well I worked on the fire in my 3D application and I think it looks pretty cool. So my concern with the icon now is just that it looks kinda flat. Maybe I should add a border or some such.
Sure, http://jshmrsn.com/sc/ColorIcon2.psd Also, I'm working on adding a border. Not sure I like it yet, but I think it needs something like this.
Thanks. I made the boostflame glow abit. Tell me what you think of it . Download: SciFly_Glow.psd (2.5 MB)
Wow, that looks awesome! The thruster flame looks really good and the colours look like they work well together. I think adding a border is a good idea and it looks great with it.
Possible border style. Subtle, matches the theme of the in game menus. Also, screenshot showing new ice island and improved thruster graphics Edit: Also shows new in-game health/boost bar
I know this fromm somewhere... Isn't that from Half Life 2? I think it still needs abit of improvement.
I think I prefer this border to the other one, it looks better and kind of has a "glow" to it. The ice island looks pretty good but I kind of agree with Der-Kleine it needs a little bit of improvement since it looks a bit too jagged at the moment.
I prefer the totally solid border to the one in the most recent post. The icon is coming along really well, it won't be long until you have it perfect.
Haha, yes it's definitely from HL2/Portal. Hope they don't mind It's very ugly right now, but it's functional... About the ice island, it's inspired by stuff like this: Which is why it's so jagged. Let me know if that convinces you it's cool, or still not your taste (I can't guarantee I can change it since the iPhone hardware limits what I can do).
