Inbox: Suggestions for blocks.

Hey everyone!

As a couple of you might have noticed, I'm sort of lobbying to make myself become part of the Everybody Edits! team as a graphics designer. My first contribution was of course the logo in this very same sub-forum that I'm posting in, and hopefully, it won't be my last.

However, I'm a little lazy when it comes to coming up with actual ideas for in-game assets. But I figured that the best source for ideas would be the community itself anyway, so this is why I'm asking all of you guys to give me some ideas as to what I should create.
Could be random blocks, could be themes, just lay it on me!

There are of course no guarantees that any of these blocks will ever end up in the game, that's completely up to Chris himself to decide. But I figured that why not let me flex my graphical muscles and show you all what I got.

Note: Any suggestions must be purely cosmetical. So no extra "key" blocks, one-way platforms, tubes, etc... At least until such a feature is announced that will allow me to make such graphics.

Go!

EDIT: 4 finished mock-up packs so far.

I am, uhh, 99% sure that a topic very similar to this has been made, but until I find it (if I can), this one is fine.

I'd like to see an electric block that gives the smiley characters electric shocks when they get too close to it

Since this is the first time that I'm actively asking the community to give me suggestions about blocks that I can produce, I highly doubt that.

Although I did have a fairly old thread where I pretty much openly wrote to Chris about me doing graphics, but I eventually mailed him personally so it's best to just ignore that thread.

I'm talkin about a thread where blocks were just suggested. But I think I'm just crazy.

Ah, I understand. However, most of them were based on practical uses. I'm looking for purely cosmetic tips for me to use and eventually show everyone what it might look like in-game.

Come on, people! Give me more material to work with!

An Stone block, like in this image, in the Desert Tileset: http://www.mariomayhem.com/downloads/sp … ileset.PNG

Hope you guys like glass! Here's my quick attempt at a mock-up...

EDIT: I took Ciro's suggestion to heart and made the blocks more pixelated.

The GLass Block can desapear(broke) in 3 seconds after someone touch it (and respawn before 3 seconds.)
Between, i like the blue glass

Will do if I actually get to do graphics for the game.

EDIT: Actually, I had nothing else to do so check my original post with the picture. Pixelation done!

The set of glass blocks with each block in a different colour, looks fantastic.

Do the glass blocks break three seconds after someone "stands" on the block, or do they break when someone stands still on the block for three seconds?

No clue. Like I said before, any suggestions you guys make and any graphics I pump out will for now purely be for   cosmetical purposes. No new tech or functions will be available for them until Chris makes it so.

That is a pretty good suggestion though, but for crowded levels, I fear something like that could be abused.

New mock-up pack up! This might be the last mock-up I'll do until I get any kind of confirmation on whether I get to inject my graphics in to the game or not. Until then, please give me some feedback!

As a designer, all I can say is:
WOW! :O
Your designs are really good, you can design some for users that suggested idea in their topic.
Keep that on!
And... You also made me wanna play this!
Your bricks are a bit different-style then the original (I think it's because of the Bevel & Emboss)... So try to think why. But they're awesome!

Thanks, all! Yeah, the bevel and embossing might have been a bit different, but that's all stuff that can be tweaked if I manage to get everything in-game.

Re: Inbox: Suggestions for blocks.

i might sound like a kill joy but I would prefer so much unicolored (or only a single pattern) blocks and you can choose any color you want on a display. All the blocks on EE being so different makes it a bit rough in my opinion...

Great ideas, Cyclone! I'll get around to making some of them tomorrow when I have the time.

I actually agree with you on this one. The ability to pick your own colors in the game would be great, but is however a tech that's not available in the game as of yet. Therefore, I made these mock-ups to represent how it would look in the current state of the game.

I think I expressed myself badly. I mean make your block more like an pixel art. It was a bit smooth compared to others. But thanks for accepting my suggestion anyway

And the second image looks great.
