I've been working on Animal Crossing inspired games for a while, and I've learned a lot about coding over the years. Now I think I am ready to actually create something great and this thread will be the documentation of this process.

My goal is to create a real-time game (with seasons and time of day based on the PC clock) in the style of Animal Crossing, although as original content and not a fangame. Much of it will be greatly inspired by AC however, and parts from other games too. The usual hobbies apply, with some new ideas I have had, and expansions on concepts we already know and love in the series.

I will be posting artwork and progress notes throughout this thread. Think of it as a gallery of themed pieces (the theme being the project tying them all together). I don't usually see threads like this the Museum so this should be interesting.

Some WIP screenshots below (August 2017):

Thanks guys.

edit. I've never done isometric sprites before so I tried it out. That's the extra two sprites on this lineup:

You really pulled it off, I would say, perfectly. They can easily end up looking warped but that didn't happen here! GJ!!!
 
For fun, I made walking animations and made a little project in javascript. I went for mouse movement over keyboard since it was more fluid.

Now if I had lots of free time, I could even make a game out of it. There is some gif compression but it's quite close to what it should be.

THAT LOOKS SO GOOD.

I am really amazed with where this is going, hoenstly.
 
Oops I forgot about this.

It looks a bit better now I promise

I guess I'm committed now (sorry, the gif quality isn't great).

And the dAMN currency doesn't display correctly but otherwise yay.

I'm still not quite satisfied with water animation so I've been messing with that (again the gif isn't saving colours properly but you get the gist of it).

The more bluish hues are because of the day/night cycle. Eventually the evening cycle will go from green-orange-blue but right now it just does green-blue.

Also a fishing rod because why not.
 
Ah, this is so adorable!! I hope this gets finished, it looks like an amazing project.
 
This is really amazing! I think the animation looks really rad and I love the little pop-ups when they pick the flower and stuff, looks really neat!
