I've been working on rebooting an old flash animation of mine, Sonic Reversal. So far, I still haven't even gotten the logo fully done, but not a whole lot I can do about that when I've got a full-time job and can only animate in my spare time.
The kinda style I'm goin for is what you see in my recent art posts, with characters doin the shaky shake. I still wanna keep the action scenes 2D, but animate the characters myself. The cutscenes, however, I want to be a picture collage, sorta like the cutscenes in Phantasy Star IV. It'll have the brown checkerboard pattern from Green Hill as the backdrop, and as the cutscene progresses, new pictures will get "tossed" onto the screenspace, kinda like someone tossing printed pictures onto a table. Once a new picture is tossed on, the last picture will stop doin the shaky shake; only the newest pic will be shaking.
Occasionally, the screen will be cleared off, so it won't get too chaotic with the picture collage, but maybe it won't. Who knows? It's some ideas I'm working on (it prolly will. I don't want the screen getting too chaotic). Particularly impactful shots will clear the screen and replace the standard backdrop, and pictures will still get tossed onto the screen as the scene progresses, and just like previous shots, the backdrop, too, will stop shaking once it loses focus.
This is all a work in progress, subject to change, and very early in development, so don't expect me to finish for a while, but I've got the fire to animate once more, and I'm not about to let it fade away!
