I happy to hear about your projects! It's sad that you cannot revive the character creator but I am happy that you are moving to other projects. I really enjoy your work and I am excited to see what you can create.

I volunteer to translate your manga to English if you want.

Hello @Milk2bad, thank you so much for your feedback again.

This one would be a lot of work if I had to do all the images myself, I could try some warp deformations but I think it would look as good specially because of the contour.

This one I think is the harder ask by far. Unless if I pay an artist to do it I don't think it's going to happen.

You can try to use the new sprites that Sutemo created, they are slightly rotated and might work for you.

That's not a bad idea, @NoEducation suggested something very similar. If it could be done just by resizing the parts, it's not that hard to do but I can't do anything too extreme, like too young or too old.

I wanna try this in the future, I added to the to-do list.

Thanks for suggesting!

Yes, please for features, if it's something I cannot do now at least I can consider in the future.


About the hands, I just realized you mentioned static hands. In that case if I find (or someone makes the assets) I can easily add them.

Hi @Milk2bad thank you for suggesting more features! Please keep doing so.

I definitely try to hear everyone. My time is very limited, that's why I try to add features that are not too complex or I feel it can help a huge group of users.

I am not an artist myself so adding anything that requires tweaks or new assets usually takes me a looong time. If you can provide the blood marks you mentioned, I can definitely add them.

About hand movements, would be super tricky to add them to this app. Currently it simply stack a bunch of images to create the character there is nothing dynamic. Adding this would require a huge effort and would probably be an entire new app, I can add to my to-do list but very low priority (unless if I receive more requests to add it).

Thanks once again, hope I could be clear and it's not that I don't want to add it but I have to choose what to add wisely.

I see, at the beginning I wasn't planning custom assets so I completely forgot this important detail.

I will work on this as soon as have some free time.

Sure, I appreciate it. I am keeping it as private right now, but I will let you know if it becomes open.

Ok, thank you for offering help, give me some time to think about it. Let's talk more about it in February.

Yes, that's true, I can probably cut some of the upper part or add a zoom feature.


This might take a little longer but I will give it a try, thank you again for the suggestions!

Thank you so much for the suggestions, I answered in your older comment.

Hey @NoEducation7902, thank you for the suggestions! They are all very interesting and easy to do.
I will have time to work on those next month but if I have time before I can work on them, they are already added to my to-do list.

Do you mind clarifying 3? You mean save/export the image as .webp right? The import for custom parts should work.

@NoEducation7902, let me see if I understood it right. Do you mean keeping the body and clothes at same size and resize head, face, hair?

Hello @NoEducation7902

Thanks for the message, oh didn't realize that I usually test one app each time.

I will try to change their directories, I was hoping one day they would be a single app where you can select the style. But right now it seems to be the best choice, I will try it.

For the emotions it is very very tricky, because there are lots of layers for hair, shadows, brows even the eyes have multiple layers, this would require a lot of time.

I will add your request to my to-do list and will work on that when/if I have more time.

Hey, Next Gen Studios, I created this app because I can't install Photoshop on Linux. And I love sutemo's style!

https://yuripourre.itch.io/character-creator-sutemo

I added brown, blue and green eyes. I will be happy to share the separate images if you want.

Please let me know what eye colors would you like to have.

Hi, @Milk2bad, I just released the version 0.6.0 and added new eye colors (blue, green and brown) I hope you like it!

(2 edits)

Hi @Milk2bad, that's a reasonable ask, I've been trying to add new body colors but those assets have a fundamental problem, the shadows are combined with the hairs which means the body color cannot be too different.

About eyes, I am thinking about adding since it's not too much work.

About hair, clothes and accessories that's something I can consider if the app receives more donations, otherwise I will be focusing in new apps.

The Character Creator - Tainara-P received a new update that might help you achieve the different races, the assets are not fully compatible with the Sutemo ones without resizing but might give you some new assets, you can try that.

I will think about the request and see what I can do.

Thank you so much for the message. And have a happy new year!!

Hi @quibski! I just released a new version 0.5.0 adding support to custom assets.

What do you think?

Yes! That's an excellent idea, let me see if I can figure out a simple way to do that. The main challenge would be the hats or accessories because some times the order should change.

Some hats have the back part and some necklaces should be under the shirt and other over the shirt.

I will see what I can do, thank you so much for your comments!

Hi @quibski thank you for the suggestion, I really wanted to!

But they specifically state that: "you cannot resell the sprite on its own, as part of a pack, or as an included item in a character creator".

So unfortunately I cannot do it.

I am glad you like it! I am planing more updates next year.

Thank you for your message!

Whoa, I didn't know that! In that case we don't need that many features.

>Something like a “connect to itch/login with itch” screen would be great.
Exactly, if there was a way to login using the same session, and having access to username would be perfect!

I know you said that, I am sorry if my English is not good enough, I am not a native speaker.

My question is: Why do you think the only way to enable this feature is "implementing a whole bunch of features and overhauling the framework, so the features offered are clicking together and have a robust concept and ecosystem around them", instead of one of the solutions suggested by @leafo? Or even adding an Oauth authentication.

Currently, usernames could be acquired by brute-force, or one could also scrape the website searching for public usernames.

Please, help me to understand technically why this is a "security nightmare"?

Right, let's go back to what you mentioned. What do you consider a solution?

If the simple approach is not enough for you what do you suggest to make this feature possible?

I still think it's not as concerning as you want us to believe otherwise other websites with social features wouldn't do it.

For me, having oauth is overkill in this case but would that address your concerns?

Ok, I think I understand your point now, there is a comment talking about profile information that probably make you concerned but that's not the intention of the original comment.

What is being asked is to know who is playing your game if this person is logged in, and that's all. This information is public (if the person decides to publish something).

Personally, I think it's a reasonable request and can cause more good than harm.

About the implementation, instead of a opt-in, itch.io could simply warn users that the username is public. And because is possible to change your username, if someone wants to change before this new feature is released, they could simply change their username. What is the point of the username anyways? Display it publicly right?

(2 edits)

I think you are missing the point.

First of all, you can rate content, create comments, follow users, create dev logs, create comments for dev logs. I don't know what features YOU need to call it a social network, but itch.io is a social network.

Secondly, no one is asking for multiplayer or any other new feature (other than maybe an opt-in), what I see here is people asking to make possible for apps to access an information that already exists (and is public).

I still don't understand your argument about how making the public usernames easily accessible would be a security concern.

I am not sure if you just want to be against this proposal or you have a real concern, if is the latter, what do you recommend? Oauth? Each game to implement a secondary login on top of itch.io? What would be the safest way to do it?

(1 edit)

Hi @redonihunter,

Answering your question:

"Where is this?"

Every time someone makes a comment, the username is displayed, I don't see how enabling access to the usernames can make it too much worse.

About what you mentioned:

I think you are saying that if the user never interacts in the platform, they don't have the username exposed, right? But I am not sure if I agree that exposing those could be a security concern.

You mentioned the usernames are accessible via cookies, if the apps can access that information I think this is even more concerning in terms of security, right? Also, cookies can be manipulated so you cannot rely on the information there, users can potentially modify any content there.

And finally, you mentioned that itch.io is not "this type of social network", I disagree. Yes, itch.io don't have all the features other social networks have but I think is implicit that any interaction you have will expose your username. Like creating a comment on this post, creating a devlog or publishing a game.

Itch.io doesn't have any authentication so there is no way around it. I would like to have this feature, I think it can be really useful not only for high scores but to learn more about the players.

Hey @owenmiel, not exactly what you asked for but I created this tool to help with the process. So you don't need to use any image editor software.

Is it possible to run this script from the command line?

I want to try later, looks great!

Ok!! Vou colocar um link. Muito obrigado!!

E Uau! Deve dar muito trabalho mas já estou ansioso pra ver!

Desculpe por insistir mas acho que vale a pena caso vc não esteja fazendo isso ainda. Se vc tiver tempo e paciência de aprender, procure por ferramentas pra te ajudar a mudar as cores (talvez usando paletas ou filtros de cor) de maneira automática, com scripts ou rotinas. Assim, pelo menos pro cabelo, você só precisaria fazer uma versão de cada e o script geraria as outras 9 variações de cor.

Fico feliz de saber que ainda tem esperança mas entendo completamente que é um projeto gigantesco.

Eu comecei a fazer um app de criador de personagens pra me ajudar a montar os sprites usando os seus assets, como vc se sentiria se eu disponibilizasse esse app de graça no itch.io?

Esse projeto é incrível, a qualidade é alta, a arte toda é super consistente e tem muita opção de tudo, parabéns pelo trabalho.

Sinto muito por você ter perdido os arquivos, se eu estivesse na mesma situação eu tentaria vetorizar as images usando inkscape provavelmente os assets com maior contraste entre cor e contorno, e tentaria salvar em algum formato que o Photoshop ou outro programa Adobe lesse ou trabalharia direto no inkscape.

Você também poderia fazer as variações de cor usando código, assim só precisa fazer 1 asset de cada e ter todas as cores possíveis.

Eu posso tentar explicar com mais detalhes caso vc tenha interesse.

Oh, I see! I think in that case the donation was made without a username, then.


Thank you so much, I couldn't find this information anywhere.

I had a donation recently made to one of my games and would like to know the username of who made the donation, is it possible?

I checked the API and I couldn't find any API that could help me to map the email to the username.

Hey Adam, thank you so much for taking time to trying and giving feedback. I am sorry to hear that it didn't work. I will work on that after voting season.

Yeah, I think it was too ambitious for a Game Jam,  haha.

Yay!!! Happy to know that it worked! I will update the instructions later today.

😂 

Oops, maybe the game is too hard? I tried to tweaked last minute but maybe I practiced too much while coding it? Thanks for the feedback!!

Hey @tafode, I am sorry to hear that. I feel I should spend some more time in the motion control, I will probably do this when the voting ends.

Thank you so much for the feedback and let me know if you can make it work.

The ideal distance from the camera is over 1 meter. Ideally, the camera should me able to see your head and hand.

The pose to start the game should be something similar to this.

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the game!

Yes, this feature would be really nice to have.

Thanks so much for clarifying, hope you have a nice day!
