NOOOOOOOOOOOO
What's your message to the pink puffball on his 32nd birthday?
>>475288976Queen Ripple spotted.....
>>475289370Go on a diet. Fat fuck.
>>475289370WHERE ARE THE GAMES KIRBS MAN
>>475289370wtf i didnt knew he had a birthdayi thought he just appeared out of thin air and everyone accepted it
Alright, here it is, pretty proud of how this one turned out, here's to a Dream Land-themed collab to celebrate 32 years! I propose the idea of a "gimmick" for the occassion, and that'd be making drawings that only use GameBoy/Color palettes for them to keep with the theme, I'll post an image with a few official GB palettes for anyone who'd like a more accessible base. If none of those do it for you, I'd still say to try keeping it to a 3 to 4 color palette, maybe try looking towards NES or GBC-exclusive games for reference. It's not a rule, but it could look pretty nice if everyone follows the idea. I have a palette in mind for my own addition, though it might be a while before I include it, slightly busy currently.Happy 32nd Kirby, here's to many more!
>>475289797And these'd be the official GameBoy color palettes I ended up finding, here's hoping they'll be useful to some of you.
>>475289990Lemme help you out there.These are the colors automatically assigned to Kirby games on GBC. OBJ0 specifically is what's used for character sprites such as Kirby himself.
>>475289797GBC Palette Go!
>>475292003>actually cared enough to filter the gifI respect your commitment anon.
Oops, all pep brew
Busy day today, not much to say, but happy anniversary, and happy Friday, /kdg/! Take care.
>>475300445Have a good one, Spiderfren
to properly close out the perfect skirby shitposts i made the worst fucking thing you've ever seen in your lifei'll contribute to the gbc collab now
>>475304795>no & Knuckles3/10
>>475306382Knuckles sucks right now, what a terrible new show.
>>475306851That's movie knuckles you sicko
Oh, good, people are talking about the Sonic movies, so I can complain about Ben Schwartz the Fortnite Zoomer Rat.Seriously, what they've done to Sonic is like what they did to Kirby in the anime but wayyyyyyyyyy worse.
>>475306851people seem to be a bit divided on it I haven't seen it yet personally so I wouldn't know.dumb fun fact: you can still see ugly sonic in the first movie in certain reflections because they forgot to clean them up.
>>475307117let's be real, Sonic was always kind of obnoxious personality wise.
What have I done
>>475307117well it looks like he ages between movies so i dont mind
>>475307117/sthg/ is literally a block away, you don't have to wait to talk about terrible sonic stuff
>>475307372Not that obnoxious. And they definitely didn't have characters practically stare directly into the camera and say>Sonic is a kid. Have we mentioned this already? No? Good. Anyway, he's a child, who is inexperienced and can't reliably do supa cool things just yet.in anything else.
>>475307480https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpFdP5yATw0
YOU HAVE ALERTED /STHG/. EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY OR REMAIN AT YOUR OWN PERIL.
>>475307610I'm so sorry
What is Kirby's expression conveying?
>Kirby birthday thread>immediate sonicshitI snooze.
kirby? who
>>475307724That's the frozen face of someone who just opened the fridge at three in the morning (for a three in the morning snackeroo, of course), only for a full gallon of milk to fall out and burst on the floor.
>>475307817https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNOpfGy0VFc
>>475307117>what they did to Kirby in the animethe fault would be on the 4kids-defaced version of the anime, not on the anime itself. i haven't really seen how (actual) anime kirby is too dissimilar from his game counterpart but i don't really think he's too different.
>>475307756Nobody actually cares about Kirby or his birthday bro he’s a non character
>>475289407very cute
Everyone loves Kirby and his birthday.
>>475307607yeah that aspect wasn't exactly great, they sort of did that with prime as well where he was reeaaaalllly fucking grating to the point where shadow was the voice of reason unironically, y'know shadow who unironically said and I fucking quote verbatim "it's like stealing candy from a baby which is fine by me" and somehow he was the best written in prime, amazing.the only Sonic media I like is asoth and the few classic games so what do I care? (and that's mostly due to youtube poops though the show is good if you like cheesy schlock and looney tunes bullshit)

>>475304795This image hurt me physically, good job.
>>475308107>Nobody actually cares about Kirby or his birthday bro he’s a non charactert. Skirby
>>475308548
>>475308706would Skirby's birthday fall on the Japanese release of amazing mirror?it's safe to say he isn't britshor AUSTRAILIAN or from any country from the PAL regions since amazing mirror did not release in those regions.
>>475304795>no "OW THE EDGE">no hunt down the freeman>no "& knuckles">no simirror>no rating>no "punished" snake like character.>no obnoxious review on the box>no stupid preorder bonus>no mountain dew or dorito's3/10, see me after class
>>475306382you're right i should've found room>>475308910he definitely doesn't feel like he can be anything but american, so that could put his birthday at october 18. honestly, it kinda depends on your preferences:>if you go off initial release dates, it's april 15th. >the october date is extremely close to halloween, which kinda just fits the shadow aspect. >you can also straight up just go with the same birthday date as kirby if you feel like it works better in a sort of twinning vibe.I honestly never locked in what I think his birth date is myself. maybe i'll let /kdg/ decide for me?
>>475310106>>no "punished" snake like character.King D-Mind is RIGHT THERE
>>475310153july 4th he was one of the founding fathers.but seriously go for october, he's a true merry can like dark samus.
>>475304795>spoilerWorking with a specific spot already? I'm about to start working on my part but I'd rather avoid any placement conflict before doing so.
>>475311217it was honestly like 12 when i wrote that so i decided not to touch it until tomorrow, i don’t need that much space anyways
>>475311471Fair enough on that, in that case, seethe rat goes here.

>>475290691>>475312007There certainly are some nice locales to visit in Pop Star in order to enjoy their sights, although its denizens most certainly are not included in that.I usually draw Elfilis deep in the background so he doesn't hog up much of the scene but I figured I might as well try drawing him closer to the camera for a change, I also think the GB Light palette works pretty well with him.
>>475316563the goo boy is herehttps://litter.catbox.moe/0f5cx6.png
>>475319046Crap! Guess I'm sitting this one out, since I'm usually the retard blob contributor 'round these parts.>Qbby in the backgroundBased.
And because I know I wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't finish it, here's how that Puyo-style Elfilis turned out. Extremely happy with the results, Legamünt was a much better base than Satan for sure, though I 100% need to do voice clips now since Legamünt's wouldn't fit Elfilis at all compared to Satan's, Now that I have a proper Puyo Elfilis design ready, I think the rest of the mod should come more naturally. If any of you play Puyo Tetris 2, I hope you'll get some use out of it.
>>475319153Hey, no foul in repeat characters, maybe you could make use of it for a funny scenario or something along those lines. Any other characters you could draw at least, worst case scenario?
>>475319046>>475319153link doesn't embed for me.
>>475319454Here.
>>475319378I think I found a workaround. Now they're twin brothers!
>>475316563I see that boxboy in the back, you can't fool me.
>>475320068you could of made it girl blob technically.
>>475324425Diet Discount Proto-ChuChu? I have STANDARDS, man.
>>475324947if they are brothers which one has the REGRESSIVE GENES
chuu <3
>>475330431that's a man kiss.
>>475335002Yeah he's smooth with it, and Kirby calls Poppy daddy too.
>>475288976Haven’t been here in a while, but came back to wish Kirby a happy birthday. Here’s to hoping we get more Kirby stuff soon.
https://files.catbox.moe/niaxvn.mp4
How will you guys celebrate kirby's birthday? I will have pizza
>>475320068It's cold up here...
Thinking how the Spanish Wikipedia page for Kirby had this shitty cosplay image before someone changed it for fanart.
>>475375450I think there was another cosplay a couple years ago, checking the edit history, apparently it's done "due to copyright"? At least, some edits mention that as the reason for swapping out the image, probably why it's fanart now. One of the edits was fucking this for whatever reason.
>>475376530>Pink>Round>Eats anythingThat's a Kirby if I ever seen one.
>>475372009KRACK-O!
>>475387435Hey he actually looks pretty happy today
>>475387906This is young Kracko, the pettiness is still developing.
>>475394028mindussy...
>>475288976Hey, has this been posted about yet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_ZrRFtD13c
>>475395997I was enjoying it until the rantsona and mutt abomination showed up, ruined the whole thing.Was expecting 50 minutes of soulful animation desu.
>>475394028Why did HAL decide this guy of all people got to be the unstoppable turbochad?
>>475395997You come into MY autistic sperg corner of the fandom and post NORMIE content? BEGONE.
>>475396931I feel like Dark Mind is just overall smarter than every other Kirby villain.>No Weakness to speak of, meaning he quickly got rid of everything that was a serious threat to him or is just so much of a chad he literally has no weaknesses>Didn’t bother making his own Dark Matter, completely bypassing the risk of accidentally forming a Gooey who would be a thorn in his side>Enlists the aid of or creates a copy of one of Dreamland’s finest, who easily mops up MK without issue, eliminating 1 out of the by-then 3 strongest people on Pop Star. >Don’t invade Dreamland straight away, thus not alerting Kirby too early; set up shop in a parallel universe and build strength, then unleash a sudden invasion that would’ve no doubt caught Kirbozo off guard>Turns base into a maze in the event Kirby is alerted, ideally frying his pea brain in the labyrinthine so he dies of starvation.>ALWAYS makes sure to pull the ol’ switcheroo whenever he’s “beaten,” shattering into a mirror and fleeing to recover>Clearly has an affinity for Magic due to his Sorcerer form, is no doubt well versed in ancient technology due to his abuse of the Dimension Mirror>Mastered an incredibly powerful Copy Ability, then got rid of anything that could provide it to Kirby>Puts as many expendable bodies between himself and Kirby as possible to wear him down before finishing the brat ofI think Dark Mind’s only genuine mistake was either making or revealing himself to Skirby. That was genuinely his only miss-step, otherwise he was near perfect. Had Skirby not been around he could’ve easily knocked the Master Sword away and then nuked all 4 of the splits. This man was DANGEROUS.
>>475396308>>475397034So do you guys just want a rundown of what was revealed or do you just not even want any of it
>>475398792Damn, he was really good huhSkirby ruining everything as usual, fuck him
>>475398912As long as it's not "AU fangame where Meta knight gets dedede pregnant uwu", then sure.

>>475395997Here's something much better.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRnjGXU62sk
>>475398792DMK also made 3 extra Kirbys that helped each other out. It's not like they were any weaker than the first one
>>475405458Would've drawn Zan, but couldn't get her colors down to the GB palette well so added Bandee (also that pixel art is really dope, nice work dude)
>>475407012Oh wow, something that recaps old content and is barely even comparable to something that shows off new content from all over the fandom like fan games, reanimated collabs, hacks, fan animations, etc. Listen, I like this animation but I’m actually kind of surprised how much this general seems to despise a showcase of new fan content. They showed off some cool fan games in there.

>>475409332I guess hal wants to forget about star allies
>>475409429Star Allies is 6 years old, anon.
>>475409003It's fine but when I skimmed it it seemed like more of a kid's thing. Like, stuff made by kids for other kids.
>>475395997As a person in the Kirby modding/online space it's cool to see a lot of people I'm aware of and have interacted with here. Some of the things look neat, I'll say, but it's a lot of stuff made by kids, or just kinda have that "first unity game" vibe, which is fun, but most of it isn't for me.Meteorz cameo was cool though.
>>475407012Oh yeah, that's way better.
Don't forget, it's also Planet Robobot's 8th anniversary.
Kirby is legal twice
>>475417317Oh wow, that looks awesomeMy biggest remake-related dream is Hal porting the 3DS games to pc, imagine Vs. Star Dream in majestic 720p
>>475420253anon doesnt know how to do math
>>475422083that kirbussy be saggy tho, the wall is approaching for gool ol kirb
it finally hit me on what to do about the bdays, i'm just gonna have to perfect the 'letters for kirby' style in time for skirby's birthday (and give myself a bigger canvas)the comic rapidly improves in quality the second dark mind appears lmao

>Nintendo allows Hal to do whatever the fuck they want because they co-own the ip but Tose allegedly needs to wait for Nintendo’s permission to make another game even though they co-own the ipIs this because they have the whole “ghost dev we serve your goal” mentality or is it because Nintendo doesn’t want them to?
>>475430304>Tose allegedly needs to wait for Nintendo’s permission to make another gameGuessing this is in reference to Starfy? Sometimes there's just no initiative from the teams within a company to make a new game, it doesn't necessarily have to be that they're "bound" by one reason or another not to do it. Have the devs expressed any interest in doing a new game at all?
>>475429107Kirby anime authors were indeed freaky. Though BBW soldiers will always get my respect.
>>475429627anon getting turned on by that fungussy
Can we all agree that Starfy exists in the Kirby verse?
>>475431902Kirby were you lying out in the sun? Your face is burnt...
>>475431010>Guessing this is in reference to Starfy?Yeah >Sometimes there's just no initiative from the teams within a company to make a new game, it doesn't necessarily have to be that they're "bound" by one reason or another not to do it. I mean they’re great but it wouldn’t hurt them to make money on their own stuff and give what people want.>Have the devs expressed any interest in doing a new game at all?Someone emailed them on their Japanese site a while back and they pretty much gave the corporate reply that they “can’t do anything unless Nintendo tells them to” because “they co-own the series.” Few years later which was around 2020? 2019? They posted a office drawing of both Stafy and Kirby together to show how close they are to Nintendo, people here speculated but nothing came of it. I’m just saying Hal usually does one without needing Nintendo's permission so I can’t see why they wouldn’t want to unless they really don’t give a shit about it. >>475432180It honestly needs more games before we can even consider that. Tose seems to think so, I’ll need to dig for that pic again
>>475432737Got the picture.
>>475432737>I mean they’re great but it wouldn’t hurt them to make money on their own stuff and give what people want.To be fair, looking at their site, it seems like they've been mostly busy supporting Square Enix as of late, with the FF Remasters (Pixel, Crisis Core) and DQ Treasures. They might be developing something of their own, but for the time being, they're probably just busy working on other projects, with little room for a new Starfy.
God, I miss the starfy series
>>475433328Starfy hadn't a game since when, Starfy 5 on the DS? Seems pretty dead to me, don't know if the nipponese like the series that much.
If Starfy exists in Kirby, then Wario also exists in Kirby, because Wario exists in Starfy.
>>475433328>supporting Square Enix as of late, with the FF Remasters (Pixel, Crisis Core) and DQ TreasuresGosh I wish Squenix would stop shitting the bed>>475433579They’re pretty busy so I can’t blame them. But having a crumb of anything would be better desu
>>475433730That reminds me that if miyamoto had his way, all platforming mascots for the gameboy line would’ve been yellow
>>475434176>Gosh I wish Squenix would stop shitting the bedI got Live A Live and SMRPG so my demands have been met at least, Pixel Remasters a shit though

I've never asked prior here but why not, if anyone wants I'll try to animate some stuff in 3d with Kirby characters, just for fun. If not understandable and look at this spinning Zan instead.

>>475443012Could I get Gooey casting a fishing line off-screen, pulling back a Blipper, and celebrating, please?
>>475444232ive always wondered, is the shadow kirby in star allies rigged? or is him riding the warp star one solid model
>>475445286not rigged, not even animated actually, which makes sense since he's so far away. Technically him and the warp star are different meshes but on the same object, if that makes sense. His textures can be applied to Kirby really easily though, since they're just recolors.
>>475445763Would SA Shadow Kirby just play exactly like kirby? or would they do something a bit different if he was one of the Star Allies DLC dream friends.
>>475446148Exactly like Kirby would be lame, they'd probably give him a buncha Amazing Mirror abilities + whatever DMK didn't yoink from mirror in some of his moves. Probably a bit like Gooey, desu, but with more stuff going on. I mean Smash, Magic, Cupid, Mirror, and Missile could easily patch out a full moveset, maybe give him a charge move that summons the other 3 kirbies for a screen clear as well.They should really make another fighters or Battle Royale game that does stuff like that ughhh that would be so cool.
>>475446148Shadow Kirby should utilize the "Master" sword in one of his charge moves.

I was being autistic just now and checking the different updates and noticed some odd compression artifacts in the latest one, seems they started here... No clue why, it's still a PNG. It always upsets me a bit seeing images get compressed, specially when they're supposed to look sharp/aliased, but oh well, what can you do.
>>475449665>>475463567>what can you do.And I will answer my own question with "painstakingly restore it using the pre-artifacted version", I really want the aliased/pixel art to be able to shine the way it should with all its hard edges and raw colors. Autism is a bitch.

>>475545467>>475545984I'll be honest, I kinda hoped more people would pick from the different palettes (hence why I made the image and all), but I still think it looks pretty solid, doesn't hurt to have a couple characters stand out after all.
>>475548104ngl my thought was "eh someone else will pick another palette" when doing mine lol, maybe others thought the same, I most associate gameboy stuff with the green anyways.

Unpopular opinion but DK NEEDS a Japanese studio to make games for, like how Hal is for kirby. I’ve dug enough into a rabbit hole about retro studios and let me tell you, they are so cursed that they’re better off without Nintendo/Tanabe breathing down their necks just because they’re gaijan making Nintendo games. They don’t give Japanese studios this type of shit so I’d like to see Goodfeel officially handle the series unless any of you have better suggestions (Inti creates?)
>>475559443i think it's ok for things to just exist in time and not always need to be franchised and iterated upon all the timei'd be satisfied if there were no more donkey kong games, you've already got five of the greatest platformers of all time from it, do you really need more from it? especially with rareware not being able to touch it anymore?would /kdg/ be satisfied if kirby ended? if kirby had to end with one of the existing kirby games, which would you have it be?
>>475559443>Unpopular opinion but DK NEEDS a Japanese studio to make games for,You get DK Jungle Clumber, take it or leave it. Really though, I don't think it's necessarily about it being a Western or Japanese studio (hell, Country was made by Rare), but moreso about a studio that can properly handle it. MercurySteam handled Metroid Dread and they're based in Spain, maybe some other Euro studio or otherwise will pitch in for a DKC remake or something along those lines, and then make a new DK game, who knows. There's good options in Japan, but I'd say DK's better platformers (unless you count the Mario VS DK stuff, which I think is definitely more Mario than DK) all have come from Western studios. It just depends on finding a studio who can live up to Nintendo's standards like Rare did back in the day, and Retro did for a while.
>>475559443Shouldn't this DK question be for /smbg/
>>475562028It already is. >>475558626
>>475562319um ok, I see...
>>475563430I don't get it either.
>>475563430>>475564595He's casting a wide net for his very uninteresting post.
>>475564961Yeah, bringing up DK in a Kirby thread makes no sense.Metroid, on the other hand...
>>475562319>>475564961I respect the hussle.
>>475565641silence, you'll awaken "him".
>>475565641one could argue there is if we bring up the whole "the lawyer who helped out nintendo with the donkey kong case was named Kirby" thing.
>>475566241ʷʰᵒᵐˢ'ᵗˀ>>475566257But that's not related to the DK universe innit, it's just a meta fact.
>>475566241He hasn't posted here in forever, and from what I've heard on /v/, has moved on to sperging about different topics anyway.
>>475566415crossoverschizo
We have so few active schizos in this general as of late, it's very peaceful.
>>475566415fair point.
>>475566415Just a retard who hated any and every form of crossover. And I do mean any. To the point that he believed Luigi or Donkey Kong or Wario should never appear in Mario games ever because they had their own franchises, for example. The /v/ threads he would make were actually pretty entertaining because everyone would have fun discussing various video game crossovers while he would just be angry, but when he did the same shit here it was mostly annoying. Still had some fun crossover conversations out of it.
>>475462390Said hard part being dealing with... This. It's definitely a bit troubling to work with such specific limitations with a character that's as oddly proportioned as Elfilis, but i think doing those 2 "complete piece" files first definitely helped me get a better idea in terms of adapting it. The whole game's genuinely Flash animated (there's straight up .SWF files packaged alongside the actual spritesheets), I somewhat wish I could play around with pivots and sprite sizes but my limits reach "redrawing the art" for the time being, animation tampering is a whole other can of worms. The fact Legamünt wields a sword somewhat teases me since I'd love giving Elfilis his spear, but if I tried stuffing it in there it'd look cramped to the point it's not even worth it. Either way, I'll probably post the completed version of these sprites later, just figured I might as well share how the middle step of the process looks, had to get an idea for each sprite's boundaries on my own.
>>475568357Lol sounds like he's a piece of work alright.
>>475568357>>475568838That anon's loss then.
>>475566796>>475568357On one hand, good riddence to bad trashOn the other, I do kind of miss his threads being inadvertently pro-crossover for the anons posing in them.

>>475585441Thank you. Anime Triple D is fun to draw compared to his more milk-bowl eyed Game TDX counterpart.

>>475584836>dedede finally reaches the cloud only for all forms of dark matter to be right behind himpoor guy
>>475584836I'll be working on this spot, by the way.
>>475590652ah good ol' hyrule temple fight club, a true classic.
>>475590652Who would Skirby main in Smash?Honestly, I kinda wonder who a lot of Kirby characters would main, like random example but Magolor if the type of guy to look at who won a recent major then when he goes to play with his friends says he 'picked up' the character recently when he just looked up a basic combo video and is spamming those out, somehow getting a victory most of the time. As of current he ONLY plays Steve.
>>475568605Almost done with this one, just missing the smaller spikes on the horns and wing patterns, though, I want to mess around with the pointing hand some more, maybe turn it into a palm-up point. Also need to see it in action to figure out how I can balance making his head not look bald, while not making his wings look off by comparison... Best case scenario I should be able to just ignore it since in gameplay it seems like the top of his head is cropped by the animation's frame, but I'd still want to be thorough with it.
>>475595651you could disguise it a bit with fur spikes as "hair"
>>475596579The wings move around enough to where it'd look wrong depending on the angle... Looking at the animation in-game, I probably only need to hide it when the wings are tilted to the left, since after that, the top of his head would be hidden, going off Legamünt's gameplay footage.
>>475597196Tried matching the position, yeah I think it's mostly hidden after the animation's beginning. I probably should only worry about that part of it then.
>>475597587yeah that looks fine in game, game dev's do tricks like that all the time off screen stuff the player doesn't see, with that shot your using it looks like the ears are still attached even.you should see the crazy tricks they did for super Mario wonder.
>>475595651And this'd be the completed spritesheet, time to give it a test run, hopefully the re-packing process won't be too arduous.
>>475603552Oh boy, this should be fun
i forgot there's separate sprites for menus and skill battle beyond the default 2P/4P onesfuckyeah this mod project's gonna be a long one
>>475603552It's working! I'll tweak that sprite specifically a bit (mainly the arm, those lines shouldn't be there) but this gets me pumped to see it through, packing wasn't anywhere near as complicated as I worried.
>>475607625looks badass
>>475604743>>475607625Rushed through the different menu sprites (for the most part, there's a few that used different renders that I'll do later), very pleased with how this is shaping up, my Elfilis autism is very much being engaged for this. Very excited to share the final version here when it's ready.>>475609937Thank you, it's definitely harder than the usual pixel art mods I do, but just seeing this alone reassure me it'll be worth it in the end.
>>475607625>the ultimate lifeform fights sonicI'm having the strangest case of deja vu.jokes aside, this looks great thus far, you should also consider replacing the sword with elifis' spear maybe (though that's totally optional)

>>475835276Creepy
>>475856595I feel like I should recognize the artist. I can't say who it is exactly artist wise, but if I hadn't know it was you who drew it I'd say it's a pretty accurate copy of the style by said artist.
>>475857645Same here. It feels familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.
>>475856595Is this in the style of those Japanese animations with the different colored Kirbies?
>>475858760NTA but I think you're right. It looks similar to Natsuringo's stuff.
it was actually Bendedede's artstyle, but since you guys couldn't tell I think that's a pretty good indicator that I've captured the feel, which is exactly what i needed to know>he's drawing japanese shadow kirby nowdamn straight i am, nobody else is gonna do it
>>475861375>>475856595If you're going to capture his style, a suggestion I would have is to use thinner lines, a pen that has a more scratchier touch, and shrink the general face of Shadow Kirby along with thinning his eyes a bit.
>>475856595>>475861375>>475862084Yeah the Shadow Kirby face is way too big for bendedede's artstyle. Also the shading needs more of a sharp line feel. The lighting gloss dots are also smaller mostly. And the lines of your lineart aren't sketchy enough while, like the other anon said, need to be thinner.Also that texture on your color shouldn't be there, Bendedede's coloring is simple, flat, and solid.Of course if your plan is wanting to try to combine BDDD's style with yours, it's somewhat of a decent start.
>>475862084>>475867182yeah I obv don't want an exact 1:1, I just want the general energy or feel of it, so considering the initial response I think I've got that part down at leastthe shading and texturing is a WIP but that should improve the more i test run thingsthe thinner brush i'll need to look into, ty
>>475861375>since you guys couldn't tell I think that's a pretty good indicator that I've captured the feelLiterally the opposite dummy, no one could tell what art style you were supposed to be emulating cause you didn't do a very good job at it.
>>475868950>yeah I obv don't want an exact 1:1I'd say the "guess the artstyle post" gave people the wrong impression then, skirby anon.
>>475868950I see the vision
>>475888614>Kirby as depicted in fanon after having his cake stolen for 0.0000000001 second
>>475700460Still workin' on it, doing the results screen sprites now since I feel like the 3-Chain and Results are arguably the ones you see more often out of all of them, wish I had a way to visualize how it looks pieced together, but I guess I'll just rely on guesswork until testing it in-game. My main worry with this one is having the neck fluff line up properly between the body and head for the Victory animation, hopefully it won't break during certain frames.
For the last time, Kirby is a drooling baby who can only say variations of poyo. They are raised jointly by Meta and Dedede.
look at him go

>>475893991I'm so fucked up why did I misread Kirby

Is Kirby more of a Sun Wukong character or is he more of a Saitama character?
>>475996061The former
>>475996061both technically.
>>475993880What did you misread it as?
apparently they Dragoon from Air Ride can show up on the Popstar world map in Star Allies. I had no clue, honestly.
>>476007125i wish we had more secrets like the ones in the star allies overworlds in forgotten landthough i suppose it wouldnt make much sense to have callbacks in someplace completely new and distant like the forgotten land
>>476008313With FL I feel like they could've said like "oh some characters/objects fell through portals like Kirby did" to excuse that kinda thing, though I also understand why they didn't, focus on the new since we just had all the nostalgia stuff with Star Allies.
>>476007125Huh, now I wonder if such a tiny background model has a bigger or smaller poly count than the GameCube one, or if it's just taken from Smash

>>476032229KEK
>>475907612Tried lining him up with how he should look in-game, I'll try packing it into the game once the detailing and other missing parts are done to see how it looks in action. Pretty satisfied with it so far. After the results sprites are done I think I'll be missing 5 more spritesheets. Yeah this project's going to be a long one... I'd be down to play PPT2 with anyone else who plays the game here once the mod's complete to get some proper use out of it, could be a fun time. I still think doing some custom BGs based on Avalanche once Elfilis is complete could be fun, and maybe a Kirby over Carbuncle mod (though for that one I probably would need to tweak the sprites a lot, don't know how easy it would be to stuff Kirby's tiny limbs into Carbuncle's even tinier ones.)
>>476049643>ado and kirby over arle and carbuncle
>>476049838Modding 2, not 1 dude, they're separate in PPT2
>>476049971ohbummerthe only thing i really know abt ppt2 is that sonic is in it-- ive been under the impression that ppt2 wasnt exactly a popular release
>>476050160Puyo is pretty niche as-is really, I like both Tetris 1 and 2 a lot (hell I even got Champions even if I didn't play it much), I'm just glad to do a mod for a game I enjoy, PPT2 is very much PPT but with more stuff. If anyone here wants to check it out I'd say give it a shot, it's on sale at the moment for about 7 bucks I think.
>>476050382ive long since accepted i will never be good at puyo and i dont plan on ever committing to learning all 50,000 chain setups or whatever to even be remotely good at itwhich is a shame because i really like the puyo characters. though i wouldnt want to slog through hundreds of puyo battles to see all the story interactionsmy puyo ineptitude and tetris mediocrity naturally means online has nothing to offer me in terms of fun eitherim very interested in that mado monogatari thats supposedly being made though
>>476050382puzzle games have sorta died off in recent years, it's probably due to mobile game space being the death nail of them so nobody really bothers with retail priced puzzle games all that much not to mention stuff like tetris 99, they'd probably do better if they were sold at indie game prices or added significant moderation's that would make them worth that price point, aint nobody buying stand alone tetris for 60+ dollars.
>>476051487the models seem "blurry" but they are still in focus
>>476052083It's all to do with the cel shading and lighting effects. Funny that RtDL DX can do it better in-engine decades later.
>>476052418even more impressive when you consider CGI animation has to be pre-rendered to work correctly where video games don't/can't do that.though both cgi and game development with 3D models has come along way in such a short amount of time compared to the early days where it was very rough it's much easier and faster, compare something like toy story to like the bad guys the quality difference is like night and day.hell you can even see that with SFM projects, people have mad feature length films with it, technology is going stupid fast.

>>476130247Someone is spamming really lowres Ado/Ribbon art around. Usually, it's some form of gore or scat. It's fucking disgusting, and evidence that shit with Ado ain't necessarily good.
I notice Paint Roller's arena layout is about the same as it is here. Is he fought in the same location?
>>476131251I...see. Dunno where you've been going, but I haven't seen any of that.
>>476131251I think I've seen some of that. It's shitty MSpaint-tier drawings, right? I am absolutely mystified as to why someone does that.

Noob draw anon here again. Sorry for not drawing in the past week, I've been working non-stop 11 hour shifts so I didn't have much free time...As an apology, I've decided to draw (or at least try to...) the last supper but with Kirby characters.Hopefully I can pick up the pace so I'll stop being shitty at drawing.https://www.colorslive.com/artist/RidireGeas < My Colors Live profile if anyone is curious.
>>476236701Good shit anon, very lore accurate to boot.

Very funny learning that Meet-a-Knight canonically swears like a sailor.

>>476266126At least he didn't get cancelled.

>>476269597He swears a lot more.
>>476269597>Then what does DMK do, not swear??he insults you and calls you schum like he's vergil
>>476269597I think it's fair to conclude that his entire language would be assembled out of all the curses in the galaxy. Assuming he could speak, anyway.
>>476269597dmk says the n word with TWO hard r's

>>476281220Dmk travels to the Forgotten Land on a quest to find the most vile slurs just to write them on Meta Knight's walls in graffiti, neither of them know what any of the words mean, but this has been going on for months.

Rather fascinating how the larger fandom has completely gotten MK and DMK wrong if MK of all people canonically has a dirty mouth. What are the implications?

>>476298203multiple long hairy legs have me acting unwise.
>>476296656Almost got the alignment down, need to fix up the neck fluff, and I'll probably redesign the right ear, I wanted to follow Legamünt's shape but it doesn't work that well for Elfilis. I was hoping to get some use out of the pauldrons but I don't have any good ideas for them, I think I'll delete them. Will probably use the armor's collar for the bit of neck fluff that goes over Elfilis's face. I probably should also fix up the bits of fluff on the right side so it hides the gap better. Actually testing stuff in-game always reveals a lot of issues with assets...
>>476301716Everything seems to be coming together nicely.

>>476305728Loving that Fighter Kirby on the left.
>>476281220>NrruffWtf
>>476301716Now this is more like it, pretty pleased with how it turned out
>>476315271the neck fluff on the left has a visible seam.
>>476316989Trust me, I know, it bugs me but it's either that or the fluff awkwardly cuts off below the head. Just how the game renders sprite edges (there's basically no instance in the whole game as far as I've seen where a sprite has an incomplete outline) it's usually not visible when actually playing the game itself, compared to that part of the screen being cropped. Wish I didn't have to deal with these compromises, but it's the best I can do for now.
Do you guys think that when the switch 2 drops it will have a kirby game as a launch title?
>>476335608Launch? Not sure, but I definitely see something releasing within the first 2 years, would be nice getting it early though
https://search.ipaustralia.gov.au/trademarks/search/view/2447230Seems the trademark for Rainbow Curse is being renewed. Might just be standard procedure to keep it up to date, but it does make me wonder how a port of that game to Switch would work, given how reliant that game is on touch controls for... Basically everything. Maybe they could do a gyro pointer, but those always seem to have some issues after you move them enough in the games that have them (i.e. the Mario Galaxy port in 3D All Stars).
Shadow Kirby appearing in random locations like Luigi in Mario galaxy
>>476347141In the offhand chance that it is a port, it'll be really funny to watch that one anon get mad about another game with an Ado-peripheral concept shafting her again.
>>476353998I'm already past my limit of Wii U ports, being Rainbow Curse is only half the problem.
>>476354465>Rainbow Curse DX, now with "Peaceful" mode included! Admire the lovingly crafted scenery in a non-stressful way as me make Kirby invincible for you!>$60 + tip
>>476355925>a Tropical Freeze tier port with even less substanceYikes, can you imagine? And to make matters worse, Rainbow Curse was sold at $40 on the original hardware.
>>476355925HAL usually seems to be good about adding stuff to rereleases, I doubt it'd be just a mod like that. They'd likely bare-minimum add at least a couple more modes (maybe some expanding on Canvas Curse's bosses?) and possibly an alternate campaign, maybe custom levels making use of Bandana Waddle Dee, since he already has his own physics and everything due to the co-op mode.
>>476355925I'm so fucking sick of the literal baby modes they tack onto every new release these days, on top of already making them easier by default.The worst part is that it makes sense from a money-making standpoint, so there's no real incentive not to. Toddlers and grandmas are a market, too, and....well, I'll just say what I say over on /smbg/ near-verbatim:>if Little Timmy has a bad experience with his first Mario/Kirby/whatever, or faces any adversity at all, there is a 0.0001% chance he might not come back to Purchase More Nintendo® Products, instead of trying to overcome a challenge like a normal human being.Like >>476357251 said, though, HAL doesn't usually play like that....except with that Helper Magolor bullshit. Damnit!
>>476357808>I'm so fucking sick of the literal baby modes they tack onto every new release these days, on top of already making them easier by default.Being honest, I don't give a shit about them personally, since for the most part it very much is a toggleable thing like 99% of the time. I can somewhat get the annoyance with the idea, but I feel like people care about it too much at times. It's an easy mode toggle like there's been for a while now, and for the most part, one you can opt out of. I don't get what the issue with it is, really.

>>476358147It's symptomatic of the turn gaming as a whole is starting to take. When even Kirby, the series that was invented in part to be an ideal beginner entry point for games in the first place, is starting to incorporate that baby-mode shit, it's a problem.
>>476365532>It's symptomatic of the turn gaming as a whole is starting to take. When even Kirby, the series that was invented in part to be an ideal beginner entry point for games in the first place, is starting to incorporate that baby-mode shit, it's a problem.I'm not sure I entirely agree there. It just feels like adding an option you can neglect if you don't like it, same as the Super Guide back when NSMB Wii came out, or the Super Kongs in DKCR. I don't see how it's "a problem", I guess I just don't get what the issue here is.
>>476366650You're right. You don't get it.
>>476366946Oooh sorry anon, but I’ll tell you the truth: Kirby belongs to the women and children now. You never thought something pink and cute could last without being dumbed down for them, did you? You must cope.
>>476366946I see it as a non-issue as long as it remains optional, is my perspective. As long as they're not actively removing the option to not engage with those mechanics, I don't see how it hurts the game at all.
>>476367705That it's there in the first place is bad enough.
>>476367857>That it's there in the first place is bad enough.Why's that? It's an option like picking between difficulties in other games, what makes it so egregious? I don't mean to be annoying, I genuinely want to understand why some consider the option (emphasis on option) of an easier mode to be so troublesome, it just seems inocuous to me.
>>476368146It’s an insult.
>>476368329im not that anon, but youre kind of retarded if what you want is dark souls but with kirby characters. the game franchise was made to be a beginner friendly platformer, and yet they gave you even in the very first game the option to make it harder if so you wished. so again, why is it an insult that the game would give you options to adapt the gameplay to however you want it?
>>476373893Nobody can make that Dedede “redesign” look good.

Do you guys think that we will ever return to the setting of Forgotten land? There's still a lot to exploit with "exploring a desolated land that may have been our world *wink*".
>>476463751Probably not. Although it would be pretty cool, we've never really went back to any new, non-Pop Star locations before.
Speaking of a new game, what type of villain could we potentially see? We’ve had evil monarchs, evil corporate executives, a cult, and a genocidal alien.Wonder what HAL would take on next.

Caved and modded my 3DS finally, adding "Make a custom Elfilis theme" to my bucket list, the current one is passable, but I think I could make something more tailored to be a theme specifically https://themeplaza.art/item/74067
>>476571392It’s not entirely on the lack of news, you guys quite literally do not talk about any actual Kirby topics, there’s zero discussion in here except for clearly underaged humor. I feel bad for the people making actual content in here, it’s completely wasted on you all.
>>476598842/kdg/ slowness upon factors of mostly of >Lack of news>Droughtother factors>Lack of Kirby topics being brought upThese days, one of the only times we're at our fastest is characterfag shitflinging it seems unfortunately, even that lowbrow humor from other anons doesn't fetch us much activity.
>>476605170>Lack of Kirby topics being brought upThis is the only factor that is controllable. At some point, /kdg/ decided that underage humor and shitflinging over Kirby topics was preferable to discussing Kirby. This is only a symptom of a site-wide trend of reduced discussion and an increase in outrage culture coinciding with the influx of new users over the past decade.
That's a lot of butthurt over the funny nigger word innit.

>>476609064DMK needs to be stopped.
>>476615032>Would the Master Crown control him or would he have enough power to control the crown?It'd be some freaky fight for control from both sides.
>>476615032if we're running under the assumption that artifacts like the master crown were created USING elfilis' power, i think its safe to say it wouldnt gain control of himin fact id wager that his abilities probably wouldnt even be enhanced all that much
What Kirby game has the most bosses?
>>476642349i think robobot?though if we're talking semantics yeah its 1000% super kirby clash
>>476642349I'd argue RTDX if we're going off its True Arena, but that one has the Epilogue bosses bumping up the count.
>>476615032>Would the Master Crown control him or would he have enough power to control the crown? A mix between the massive tree form of the Crown and Chaos Elfilis would go hard ngl.I still hold to the theory that Elfilis and Void were ancient equivalents in the past, and since the Crown seems to be a derivative of Void rather than being a fully powerful Void equivalent, I believe Elfilis would overpwower it.
>>476579479i like it
>>475288976Am I the only one who thinks that every switch kirby game was great? I played almost all of them on parsec and I loved it. >Smoother controls>Better itemization than older gamesLevel design is still that simple thing but I found it more fluid than older games

>>476661915:D
>>476658351we all know the reason, switch 2 was going to be this year but they totally delayed it.

>>476654473It's definitely harder if you're not using a cheese ability like Tornado.
>>476680797>"show me that zaza honey bunches of oats"
>>476680797Here's something I don't understand.The general consensus is that 02 can't feel positive emotions, right? And HAL seems to have made that canon, considering some of Void Termina's flavor text.If that's the case, then what's up with pic related? I wouldn't call smugness a "negative" emotion. Everything else Ripple does when possessed can be explained as 02 just keeping up appearances, but this isn't intended to be seen by anyone.Is 02 actually smug in this scene? Is it Ripple's own capacity for emotion, projecting as smugness? Does Ripple actually have control over her own body, and it's just 02 influencing her thoughts?
>>476681992Smugness is a negative emotion because you're feeling superior to others, as opposed to basic empathy. I personally headcanon that Zero's incapacity to only feel negative emotions has, in a way, lopped back around to making him overly benevolent in his own twisted way; because he knows nothing but pain, he believes that everything else in the world also only knows nothing but pain and that other positive emotions don't exist and are faking it. As such, he attempts to convert or destroy everything in order to give the universe 'peace.' In the case of your question, Zero was most likely just influencing Ripple's thoughts; he had come to the conclusion that he can just swipe the crystal from Ribbon, break it, then resume the invasion, and that emotion was transferred to Ripple making her smirk, as she knew the plan. She's still in some semblance of control, otherwise the crystal would be exposing her due to proximity.
Do you think there’s a chance that new banquet game leaked could be a kirby game
Don’t die now, we’re so close to the end of the thread
might as well post these for you guys since we're struggling for bumps apparently
>>476691942Working game dev proper is rough, alright? I'd keep up my work on the Puyo mod but I don't have as much time to spare on it as I need to make any real progress...
>>476692440hey i get it, honestly i'm lucky enough to be able to devote most of my freetime to drawing as it isi've learned to appreciate the process more than anything at this point, we can only post things when they're done.
working on a way to look at star allies levels in Unity and maybe edit them, background work perfectly but tile sets are a... wip as you can see...There's already a Star Allies level editor, but this is more a personal project.
>>476696919I'm curious, just how custom is Star Allies's version of Unity compared to the vanilla engine? Given that HAL iirc does seem to only use Unity for specific contexts like level building, rather than using it for the whole game.
>>476702898Well currently im just reading the .xml file they use for the level decorations in vanilla Unity with some editor buttons added in, then decrypting the level data into positions and stuff, the Unity stuff was used WAYYY more in forgotten land, though can't edit levels for those since the maps are way more complex.
>>476681992youre confusing a devious (scheming) glare with a smug expression
>>476703072>Well currently im just reading the .xml file they use for the level decorations in vanilla Unity with some editor buttons added in, then decrypting the level data into positions and stuffHuh, I'm curious now, what do you use for the decryption part as far as positions and the like is concerned?
so according to the investor meeting, there's a confirmed direct this june, that might be something.also, the switch successor is going to be revealed before march next year, thoughts?
Seems like forgotten land has reached 7.52 million, here’s to hoping it reaches 8 million by the end of the switch’s life if not 10 million
>>476712110i am two of those sales!

>>476315271Working on the Defeat pose now, tried basing it on his downed pose during his fight where you can rip out the Elfilin orb somewhat, bracing myself for the inevitable fight to try and make the wings line up proper in-game, since they move much more in the Lose animation than in the Win animation.
I’m aiming to make a Kirby cafe reservation for next month on the 10th of this month, do any anons here have experience with the Kirby cafe and what I should prepare for reservations?
Passing by bump.
>>476707051Well I'm basically copying whats already in the star allies level builder, but the level tiles are in a big array pretty much, and every time you reach the maximum value of X (like if the X is 20, then ever 20 tiles you move up on the Y) you move up on the Y axis and go back to zero until the array is done, from what I've gathered.I have it working better now but might need to add an offset to some pieces since a lot of them just aren't centered, and while I could change it in Blender, Hal doesn't, so i'll try to figure out how the heck they do it
>>476743031oh yeah and other screenshot, you can see it's getting there, just the weird offset stuff
