I'm making a simple tile smasher game with main focus on watercolour horny illustrations
Everyone, please meet Amber ;)
I was struggling with finding an art style for the game elements/UI but after much experimentation I think I've finally struck something... Look out for some teasers anon
Tile smasher like breakout? Or do you have something else in mind?
It will certainly have quite a unique style with the watercolor art!
Watch out with making the game too bright, watercolors tend to have a lot of white space in them which doesn't always translate as well to computer screens. You can add a very subtle beige paper texture overlay to the game screen to break up the overall brightness just a tiny bit.
A bit like Breakout, but instead of ball bouncing back and forth you fling it towards the tiles, which have power ups and stuff. There is also a mechanic where you get to uncover each illustration to get those juicy details.
That's a super good tip with the paper texture, thank you!
