Hell-Forged - Final Super-Secret Map Completed (P.319)

[Amuscaria]

Thanks, all.

Took some free time today to up the detail on the Director a bit before committing to sprite conversion. Mostly bulked up the legs and other details to make it more imposing.

looking somehow simple yet detailed
i'm guessing that's not a minigun of some kind
will this thing too have multiple attacks?

[Captain J]

Check out those spikes! Ouchy. So i guess it damages you when upclose without attacking me?

[Amuscaria]

It has 2 attacks, but basically the same animation. The Director uses a more powerful version of your Mauler - so it shoots 4 nails, or 30 shrapnel. I might give it a stomping attack later on.

Those legs kinda remind me of grasshopers.

[Amuscaria]

2 rotations down, slightly less than 6 more to go. This turned out a lot more complex than I anticipated; a lot of small details that requires pixel-editing. Anticipation time to finish is in 6 (free-time) days.

EDIT: Changed the gun from 5-Barrels to 8 because 5 didn't animate right with 2-frames.

Holy shit Amuscaria! You continue to do incredible work!

[Captain J]

Looks big and ominous enough! Always loving the quality of yours. Can't wait to see what its little friend does!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy... is there anything that'd prevent that from being used in FreeDoom once you've made the sprites publicly available? I imagine it'd also look great in Ancient Aliens, since that already uses your Arachnotron sprites.

oh my christ! this and all your hell-tech-forged variant monsters just blow me away everytime...

I'm gonna have to ask Bethesda about that. I don't think I have the legal right to release it under Creative Commons for an obvious derivative design, even if it is from scratch. The Hellduke might be a different story. Will make sure when I finish the sprite set and contact Bethesda/id Software about it.

Besides legal issues regarding what Amuscaria said, I believe the FreeDoom team is trying to stay away from a Doom-like aesthetic.

[Gez]

Yeah, Freedoom doesn't need or want monsters that look too much like in Doom. Being too derivative could open them to legal action...

[Solmir]

This is probably echo, but hot damn that's an awesome and sexy boss monster.

[SiFi270]

I was mainly wondering because the creator of its current Spider Mastermind sprites doesn't want them to be used any more, amongst others.
