im not sure, probably TEG

Spoiler:

Also what are the 'hypersleep pods'?

there's no arrival shuttle, the crew wakes up a couple of years into the future when the station is readily operational.

i revised the map some more

FantasticFwoosh · Wed Jun 28, 2017 11:20 am

This doesn't seem in the same format as other stations because there is no departures (or even just more than 2 escape pods), so really unless you pass it off to someone else like CM you can't really replicate a round here because of the stark difference in gameplay quality to the norm.

Either that or its enforced lowpop or something.

fwoosh it's like you put the constructive criticism in bleach then put that into a blender

then throw the blender into an active volcano

here's a non-ingame preview of some room, displaying support beams too

thingy idk about this

beware of the fact that there is no lighting in this picture

FantasticFwoosh · Sun Jul 02, 2017 10:28 am

Why did you put the bordered malteser floor back in? I mean generic borderless reinforced flooring looks good contrasted with your walls previously.

the original one was bordered too but dont worry this is for offices only

also hey did someone order more corridor

Remie Richards · Sun Jul 02, 2017 12:05 pm

The support beams don't work.

bman · Post by **bman** » Sun Jul 02, 2017 12:41 pm #313779

Visually? The black color sure is jarring, but I'll make them thematically correct later, is their structure okay?

bman · Post by **bman** » Sun Jul 02, 2017 12:57 pm #313781

here we go no support beam booms

Anonmare · Post by **Anonmare** » Sun Jul 02, 2017 1:33 pm #313786

I like it sans support beams. It's more clean and crisp

Mabye you could make support beams work, I think the idea is cool, but the sprites you used looked nothing like support beams.

FantasticFwoosh · Sun Jul 02, 2017 7:13 pm

Beams are way too big, if they only connected between the joints of a wall rather than on the actual tile per tile sprite (on the corners etc, so a 4x4 has 4 support beams on each corner and between the tiles) and were a lot less noisy by not externally sticking out of the wall towards the viewer they might be more palatable.

WHAT

yeah it's cause i ripped my airlock frame sprite look

airlock is not sprited yet, it goes in the middle

FrozenGuy5 · Post by **FrozenGuy5** » Sun Jul 02, 2017 8:57 pm #313824

walls look too white but yes i know it's supposed to be retro unless i don't like retro then my opinion is false
also the beams could be improved by literally just cutting half of the sprite, i could do it myself just to show an example but lazy :^)

Don't listen to fwoosh, he can only form coherent thoughts about 25% of the time.

the bordered metallic floors kind of look like old walls

i got a feeling its going to fuck with some peoples eyes when they first come around to it, maybe changing the palette closer to the grey of the old floor tiles so its more familiar to peoples eyes?

not saying you need to put actual grid tiles but simply changing the color to the old scheme and then adding a different pattern would be nice

looks great tho

bman · Post by **bman** » Wed Jul 12, 2017 9:25 am #316290

comfy walls ignore the white base

bman · Post by **bman** » Thu Jul 13, 2017 3:08 pm #316638

1 or 2

FantasticFwoosh · Thu Jul 13, 2017 3:46 pm

Two, the first draws the eyes to the corners too much making you miss content on the middle of the wall.

Gun Hog · Post by **Gun Hog** » Fri Jul 14, 2017 5:35 am #316752

Are you an eye doctor? One.

JStheguy · Post by **JStheguy** » Fri Jul 14, 2017 5:54 am #316754

Two, they both are suffering somewhat from the constraints of the perspective, but number one is far more glaring than number two.

tacolizard · Post by **tacolizard** » Fri Jul 14, 2017 7:12 am #316757

One. two has no character, it just looks bland

bman · Post by **bman** » Fri Jul 14, 2017 7:34 am #316759

what do u mean no character

Post by **Armhulen** » Fri Jul 14, 2017 7:38 am #316760

two or bust

Wed Jul 19, 2017 10:11 pm

Two, one draws too much attention to the bright outline and because of the outline the rest of the sprite looks squished

bman · Post by **bman** » Tue Jun 12, 2018 8:43 pm #417705

Anonmare · Post by **Anonmare** » Tue Jun 12, 2018 9:17 pm #417718

Looks really glossy and kinda like glass

Those new screenshots are looking good. I'm looking forward to what's coming up next.

As for name suggestions, I'll throw a few out there in case one of them sticks.

PipeStation
MetalStation
DiaStation
FactoStation
CrateStation
B-Station
RetroStation

Looking gorgeous so far. But yeah, it all hinges on the wall-mounts.
