Following the idea of a Marvel-based SU-like game, I've been toying with the idea for quite a while. I'm an "artist" and I have a scenario and a game system already in mind as well as a few drawings so if anyone is interested as coder/writer hit me up.
u should probably contact the developers of project winter heroine they already started a marvel game similar to su

I definitely have great ambitions for the overall game, but I know my limitations, especially when it comes to speed, I’m rather slow at drawing. But I’d say my artstyle is a little better than this winter soldier game so I’d say this has some potential. My goal would be to create a mainframe for the game (main locations and mechanics, as well as 1, maybe 2, companion characters). Right now I’m making some dolls, backgrounds and maybe a few CGs, in order to make a demo in the future. But I’d still need a coder that could also help with writing to really produce something playable. PS: also no animations
i cant offer much advice when it comes to art. but i think doing characters in "layers" would work better in the end. make naked body, limbs, head, face and clothes diferent pieces that you can mix together to set the scene. that will make doing most of the posing much better.

too many projects start with the artist trying to do the whole picture on one go, and then having to step on the break because they realise, doing this would be much faster(if not easier).

it also makes making new bodies easier as you can take one with similar look to what you want, and changing a few things to fit the new character/scene.

damn, so much talk about Marvel comics in a DC comic based game... how about making another topic about it?
I'm working on a similar game as this, but you don't see me talking about it here...
let's just keep it about Something Unlimited.
calm down mate, no need for it, we are just passing time as we wait. its not like discussing "is SU over paid"/when the next update is coming" are vital to humanity's future...

if the guy is interested in making a new game, we should incentivise, more is always better... unless we are talking delays...

well you could also use a 3d programe and just save the tinplates so you can just have them on hand if you have the right program that is. i still like to play 2d games but i also like 3d games and no i don't mean where they jump out at you lol.

im gonna be completely honest, 3d games are starting to get to a point where they look so identical to one another, that its kinda losing the appeal, specially because they are almost always ticking the same boxes in the exact same way...

my biggest fear is that Sunset starts updating this game like yandere simulator, instead of finishing up the old characters, they add new stuff and either put aside or completely forget about the rest..
Not sure what you've been playing, because he's been doing that for the last couple years. Just look at harley, wonder woman, catwoman etc...

there are some 3d games that are good tho. but i was more are less talking about just useing 3d models to make tenplates of those characters you want to make then you could just reuse them.

So did the patreon actually release a teaser? It feels like they were all "it's teaser week" a couple of days ago and then didn't actually tease anything.

In my opinion, be careful, it is my opinion and it is what I think, it does not put more things about Wonder woman, blackfire and some of the others that are attractive, because they are the best and if you put all the missing content, it collapses all because no one would be more interested in the game.

just change the lex part...don't get me wrong lex is cool but i would prefer a marvel villain in part of the main character
so what villain would be a good Marvel stand in for Lex, a part of me was thinking Norman Osborn but I'm not 100% on that, what do you think?

Yeah, sure if I ever make my game i'm gonna take some inspiration in SU but a straight up "sequel" with Lex doesn't sound like a good idea
it would only be a sequel in name only, the only thing carrying over from the original game would be Lex and Grodd, also the game would take place in the 90's when marvel cartoons were really big. Plus if you did Lex that would be one less character to draw and animate.

Yeah he has stated of the main heroines he wants to finish Wonder Woman last but that was years ago.
Dr.Doom could fill that role since is the most wealthy and one of the smartest if not the smartest villain in marvel comics
Dr Doom, Mr Sinister are ones that work well for a Lex counterpart though they aren't identical. Kingpin in a bit more similar to Lex but it doesn't quite work.
