Benson is Leon Copperman's butler. He basically introduces you to the game and plays a role in a couple puzzles.



Updated Sprites...Again


I updated the sprites once again. The far shoulder on the male characters was annoying me. The characters are supposed to look like they're kind of facing off in the direction they were facing, but only the head depicted this. The far shoulder was a pixel too wide (made it look like the character's head was sitting too far back), the chest was perfectly symmetrical (so the chest looked like it was facing the screen), and both legs looked exactly alike. So, I basically took the one side of the character and made it a pixel thinner and then offset the torso (ties and such.) I also gave the characters distinguished noses (except for Sara, who I seem to have missed.)



David Remo's character also wasn't working out too well; he was supposed to look like an eccentric, fat billionaire, but his coat just wasn't cutting it. So, I switched him over to Aaron's look and then made a few modifications.

I'm trying to get back into full swing working on this, but I've been a little busy lately. Soon though; I'm picking up speed again.

Looking better. Maybe try making the feet asymmetrical as well?

Thanks for the comments Prinz Eugn! The feet are actually my next project; I saved them for last as they've given me problems in the past lol. Once I get brave enough to take a whack at it, I'll post the product up here.
