Whew, I must say, it was harder than I thought to pick up this project again :P…
I’ve repainted some of Cate’s sprite, and I hope I will get into my old productive way of making them animation frames…
Here is some concept of the Dual Sabres and the semi-automatic pistols as I imagined them:
The bombs will be classic round grenade-thingies, thrown with a power bar (as in Worms) and the magic is generated by holding a “magic button” and perform certain codes with the other buttons (as in Drakan). Once a spell has been generated successfully it is either used directly or stored in a magic bar, so that you can have a certain amount of spells ready for combat.
