Crimson Twilight Sprites

Not a 'release' as such, but the other day and on a few forums, Moloch posted some sprite sheets containing various monsters and non-playable characters from 'Crimson Twilight', an RPG for the C64 that is currently being produced by Arkanix Labs.  Since I pixelled the majority of the sprites (save 3 or 4), it would seem to be appropriate to post them here too.

Please note, these images intentionally have scanlines, CRT blurring and JPG 'artifacts' in them.  As Moloch explained in his forum post...

"In the past we posted clean images - no artifacting, scanlines, etc. Well that all changed last summer when I discovered someone in one of those gamemaker forums posting the sprite images as his own creations and offering them to others in their games."

Here are the monsters that you encounter during the game.  They are single C64 multicolour sprites with a hires overlay for extra definition.  Click image below to enlarge...


And here are some the non-playable characters that you encounter during the game.  Again, single C64 multicolour sprites with a hires overlay for extra definition.  Click image below to enlarge...


A V1 preview for 'Crimson Twilight', which also contains some of my background graphics, player sprites and character portraits can be downloaded from CSDB here...
