I too like the outlined version. Somehow, it feels as though the no outline version takes away from the 2D experience.

Everyone's weird for liking the outlined version.

Not really, but I think no outlines looks more.... real. As in, it looks exactly like an anime when scaled down. Don't you think so?

It needs a windowed version, which I imagine you will include later on, as full screen can be somewhat inconvenient.

i gotta say no outline just because the outline on a game with the background and floor having no outlines looks odd to me.

I agree, this is the main reason no outline is more appealing. Also, the outline doesn't extend into the heroine, meaning her crotch and breasts look a little inconsistent to me.

So, if you wanted to use the outline, you'd have to add more outlines, which wouldn't be much of an improvement and may just be unnecessary work.

My vote has to be for no outlines. Looks amazing though either way :D

Which, like I said, gives it more of a cell shaded look. With no outline I feel that the heroine feels too much like a part of the scenery instead of the object we should be focusing on. With the outline she's given dominance in the scene though because the outline isn't detailing everything and instead being left to shade/lighting she still feels like a part of the environment.

I find myself agreeing with SirOni on this matter.

Re: Making a hentai platformer - Controls/ basic animations pg.10

At first I was like "Un-outlined looks better".

Now I'm not so sure. I think perhaps once I see the character moving around etc. I'd prefer the outlined for the reasons others have stated. (Separated from background etc.)

...guess I should download that thing and try it out, huh?

Yeah, I think I may have to side with the outlined... But I still love those of you who said un-outlined.

Yes, that is an advantage. She does stand out, is easier to spot, follow on screen, etc, which is valuable in platformers. If the enemies are the same, it would definitely make them easier to avoid/copulate with when I'm playing in the wee hours of the night.

Opinion seems divided almost 50/50 on this one.

Could you get the game to generate outlines as an option? Or possibly have the black outline as a layer behind the character that can be switched on and off? Would sate the desires of both camps if you could.

I prefer no outlines, feels a bit more artistic to my eyes. Suits the soft enviroment as well.

Re: Making a hentai platformer - Controls/ basic animations pg.10

I'll put in a vote for no outline. Given what we've seen so far, I think the quality of the sprite work should be enough to differentiate what is what within the game.

Played them both. I prefer the outlined version. The no-outlined version makes my head hurt with the way it blends in with the rest of the colors.

Re: Making a hentai platformer - Controls/ basic animations pg.10

My vote goes to the no lines version, since it simply fits better with the evironment, but if you do use the outlined version, please use darker lines for inner body contours as well, since the disparity between inner and outer contours is really distracting.

Also, the jumps feel a little stiff. Is it just me, or does jumping while running at full speed actually slow you down?

The outline looks weird because nothing else is outlined. So for best results, you'd either have to outline everything or go with no outlines.

Re: Making a hentai platformer - Controls/ basic animations pg.10

Have to say with lines...in some parts of the ''Trial'' The Main Chara gets ''lost'' in the beams of the sun, making it some sort of losing the visibility of the main chara...

Somehow it makes it look 'Clean' without the lines....

My vote goes to Lines

But still, havent look at the sex animations done against the chara soo let wait some time...

Great progress BTW
