DKC Atlas Forum

Your worst fears have been realized

My rendition of what DKC might look like in HD with remastered SNES assets:

Hey Guys,

Is anyone interested in giving this thread new life? I've been away from the forum/this topic for quite some time but wouldn't mind getting this going again if anyone's interested. Either way, let me know.

Hey guys, I'm finished with school and have some free time for a little bit while i look for a job, If you need any help
with reviving this thread just let me know!

Hey there, I'd be happy to help with any sprites you might need. I'm fairly knowledgable in the subject and have some free time this summer, so just give me a shout if you'd like me to help out!

Thanks,

K.Rool The Krool (Mike)

Hello All!

I'm back after a long hiatus period. I don't know how the Fan-Game is progressing but if anyone has had any idea's lately please let me know!

Thanks!

-K.Rool The Krool

Well, dunno what you're gonna think of these, but here's an attempt at the sprites you needed VideoViking. if you need them changed or in better quality just lemme know ;) http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r393/Koolio_kool/V-VSprites.gif EDIT: Fixed what you asked for VideoViking, hope it's what yo...

If anyone still wants to seems pretty quiet latley.

Cat O 9 Tails

He seems like one of the most unique villans in all three games and as far as I can tell is the only cat-like enemy in the entire trilogy

Here's another attempt, slightly less detailed this time, I tried to pixelate squitter a bit and add a "grain" effect over him, if its not what you guy are after I understand. I was just bored and thought i'd take a shot at it. http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r393/Koolio_kool/SquitterAv...

Sounds good guys, I'll try to think of some ideas on how to keep the new topic clean when it comes.

I'm not sure about how large you were planning on letting the new avatars be but I've enlarged this one to show some detail
It can be scaled down, which I know it'll have to be.

I agree The Guy, there are way too many random posts on this topic. I think a new thread would be a good start, with some ground rules as a basis.
Any thoughts on that GamerBoy?

gamer_boy997 wrote:Your levels are awesome The Guy! We should use some of these in our fan-game!

Indeed we should, I asked Video Viking if he wanted to but I havent heard back yet.

Thanks for the comments Tiptup. Lanky, your idea is creative but it seems very similar to Gloomy Gultch in DKC 2, maybe we could change up some of the levels?. Also i've been thinking about Boss music for the K.Rool battle, I know that Smudge had something created so i don't want to say we have to u...

Very nice levels The Guy. Hopefully if the fan-game moves furthur ahead we can use your skills

Thanks for all the tips Simion and Gamerboy, and also for the compliments. I'm fairly new to making sprites that are in-game compatible but I do have extensive knowledge in Photoshop due to taking a three year computer animation program, so if we need backgrounds or terrain edited i could do some of...

Why separate objects? arent the sprites just image sequences? Also yeah i thought the tank turn looked a bit edgy but i wanted to slow it down so you could actually see it when it was on an angle

I was actually thinking that before he scratches his head he could shoot 7 or 8 bombs then one will land in front of the Kongs and they will have about 5 seconds to throw it at him. This will repeat until the tank stops working and K. Rool scratches his head at which point the Kongs can jump on him....

I'll see what I can do Lanky Kong

I think this is because there is only refraction happening on the coin, as reflection has not yet been applied. I could be wrong but it's just a thought

EDIT:

K. Rool's final sprite sheets have been moved down to my last post see below

Very nice Simion! looks like the real deal to me

Ok guys here are the Go-Kart death sprites for Kiddy and Krash, hope you all like them ;) http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r393/Koolio_kool/KiddyKartDeathSpritecopy-1.gif http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r393/Koolio_kool/KrashKartDeathSpritecopy.gif ITEMS NEXT IN LINE: -Animal Buddy Mini-Token r...

Anyway, yeah, I didn't make the balloon for it to actually be used (as you guys already have one), I just was messing around and wanted to try it out. Same goes for the coins, use them if you want, but I was only messing around when creating them. It was a nice balloon Jomingo, the only reason mine...

Sounds interesting Simion, we could indeed do that for some of his moves. Also, yes my avatar is supposed to be a biker-gang version of K.Rool with an electricity gun of some sort (maybe a cattle-prod)

Thanks Simion, I actually just made him rather quickly, but i'm looking into actually giving him a more detailed "Sergeant's Whistle" around his neck and some other things as well, we'll see how it goes :) Also hopefully we do see gamerboy997 again soon, he seems to have alot of input on m...

Well actually for me it was a tie between Gloomy Gultch and K.Rool's Keep but i couldn't select both so I decided on K.Rool's Keep due to the Castle and Ice Stages, they seemed to be the levels i got the most out of

*sigh* I miss the good ol' days when this thread was free of argument and full of ideas...now hardly anything gets posted about ideas for the fan-game, I'm hoping we can get things back on track, maybe with a new thread at some point after laying down some ground rules. I'm not gonna lie we had some...

What about me Smudge? geez

Hey guys, So as Simion was thinking about a volcano-temple level I decided to make this visual interpretation of what it might look like. Seems like it might be a great level if we ever got the fan-game under way. Enjoy :) Edit: Fixed the blue issue with the temple ;) http://i353.photobucket.com/alb...

Tipity Tup-nup, I didn`t get all fussy over your comment. Also, an old part of you? You didn`t commit murder or anything. Also, I just realized about beat the clock, so screw my crap idea. Back to TT jr. off topic, you do have a gf. SO DO I, YOU GREAT GANSTER ACTER. My gf would just say, "Hmmm...

Great ideas for the extra content guys. As for me I went back and had a look at those Go-Karts from before and fixed them up a bit as was suggested, hope you like 'em :) http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r393/Koolio_kool/DKCFanGameCartscopy.gif EDIT: I added DK's Go-Kart death sprites ;) http://i35...

Ok, thanks for the info Simion, i'll try to get the sprites to that size and make the rotations...this may take a few days tho

Added some new items to my post on page 10, check it out

Katastrophe Kong wrote:Nice spike sprites, I could really use some help on the animal tokens. So far I've done Ellie and Squawks.

I can do the rest of you'd like Katastrophe, it seems fairly easy to change the regular sprites into the gold tokens in Photoshop.

Very nice go-kart idea Katastrophe. Is there anything you wanted help with in making the sprites? EDIT: I went ahead and put the Spike barrel, box, and token in with Katastrophe's sprites, hope everyone likes them :) EDIT #2: I made all of the mini animal token sprites that appear beside the bonus c...

Since the fangame thread has gone downhill, i thought i would post my custom sprite here for viewing. It's a custom animal buddy that was originally supposed to be in a fan-made game but that seems less likely now so I just thought i'd post it so people could see it. His name is "Spike" (C...

Well, I guess that's that for the Fan-Game. In any case i'll hang onto my work
(aside from that box art) until we or someone else has a more balanced plan for things.

Thanks Again Guys,

-Mike.

Good lord...what happened here? looks like no ones interested anymore, or so it seems. Oh well guess it was fun while it lasted.

K.Rool the Krool, sorry to limit your 'lol'... it's just to keep conversations from degenerating into instant messaging-style language.

Feel free to use the laughing smiley if you get the urge to laugh out loud.

Thanks Qyz, I appreciate it.

0. I think that was "no duplicated topics/threads". 1. Do not double-post unless you have something significant to add. If you had just posted earlier, and no one has replied yet, edit your post instead. 2. Do not use "lol" and such as part of you regular vocabulary here. It is ...

gamer_boy997 wrote:^ That's odd, I still see the Spike-out-of-crate animation and then your post about a thread title in a row .

I thought the double posting rule only came into effect if you posted two entries on the same topic, both of mine were different lol

I deleted my double post...

*sigh* Where's my facepalm emoticon when I need one... :roll: That's definitely not what I had in mind when I suggested coming up with a specific name. Why not just title it something like "Kiddy's Big Shot: a DKC fangame" for now? Ok....one last try at this lol "Kiddy's Mysterious A...

Hey guys just a quick update:

An animation of "Spiney" or "Spike" inside his animal box and it opening

hmm how about "Donkey Kong Country: The Fangame"

Alright guys here's what i'm thinking. Qyzbud makes a very good point by saying that we are naming this with an "Official" name way too soon. So until we have something a little more tangible how about we call this the "DKC Fan-Game Creation Thread"? Now I know i didn't make this...

So why exactly can't we call this DKC4? it's recycled content..yes...but we're making new sprites and new levels so i think that counts for something, i even made that kiddy balloon from scratch, so unless rare threatens to sue why can't we call it that? lol I know. Not only that, but I liked how t...

SPRITE UPDATE!

Okay ppl I now have the new animal buddy "Spiney" almost completed. Here is what I have so far, i also have mini tokens and token rotations coming

So why exactly can't we call this DKC4? it's recycled content..yes...but we're making new sprites and new levels so i think that counts for something, i even made that kiddy balloon from scratch, so unless rare threatens to sue why can't we call it that? lol
