Hello guys!

We are wokring on a multipayer runner/flier with blood and gore and trolling,kinda, to get to the finishline first. The game currently looks like this:

Heres a screenshot from unity changing the same scene with Ferr2D:

What do you guys think of the look of this game? It is for mobile, and i would love to cram as much art as i possibly can in there, but seeing its a multiplayer online game for mobile...i kinda cant. The video has no background props in it, but they are gonna be there, so it might look alittle empty.

Feedback would be highly appreciated! Feel free to shoot me questions about the game itself!

Thanks for looking!

The baked lighting is the only thing that catches my eye as maybe lacking in visual appeal. Dynamic lighting and shadows could give the project the extra edge and mood. Something like Sprite Lamp might be worth exploring. Otherwise this game looks great!

Enjoying the style. Characters might be a little small for all the detail they are packing and hard to read when they are crammed one on top of another and with entrails flying around.

Thanks, yeah ive seen Sprite Lamp and it looks amazing, problem is that this is a online game and we cant have even the slightest lag seeing how direct the "combat" is in this game. thats the reason i have painted the light in, didnt want a flat look so i really didnt have much choice. I agree the game would look absolutely amazing, anything does, with Sprite Lamp,but i'll save that for some PC games later dwon the road.

Hamsta, if you want a shot at seeing the game on a phone, just let me know, as they look very good on small screens. The only time they look small is in the actual race because we wanted players to get a good view of the playground, at the matchmaking screen and finish screen, they are big so you can show off whatever you are wearing. We played with alot of sizes and ended up with them having to be small simply because of the nature of the game, but like i said, the details reads very well even on tiny phones.

Is it going to be a free game?! To me it looks like a fun game and I'm sure seeing myself and my little brothers playing this!

Keep posting about this game!

Hey thanks! Yes its going to be free, even tho we would love to slap a small price tag on it, seeing how the mobile market is these days, there will be ingame purchases and some ads.

However, they are never going to be on the screen unless a player chooses it. All the IAP's are costumes and estethics, so theres really no need to spend anything as u can unlock most of the items through playing. We have to eat and pay bills, so there has to be an income somehow, and we feel this is the way that will safeguard the players from most of the usual ads and paywalls.

Looks like Fun Run. The art is really cool. Good luck looks nice!

the graphics are very appealing. nice work! I will look for it when its released,

Graphics look excellent, very nice work.

I really like the graphics style ! And the gameplay and environments seem fun!

Do you have an idea when you will publish a first release and on which phone/mobile it will run? (android, ios, windows?)

And is it really hand painted? Which techniques do you use? It looks amazing
