A lot has happened since 9 months ago. I finished the two sprite sheets a long time and and now I need a 3rd one which has halted production a little bit. What I've got so far looks pretty awesome and I'm pretty confident it'll be enjoyable. The increased sprites I have at my disposal really gives me a lot more creativity. I've even got a little part of hand-to-hand combat that looks incredible which the basic sprite set would never have allowed. I'm just glad I don't need many more sprite sheets to complete this. That would take SO long to create.
(Though, I'd maybe end up making them anyway eventually?)

Yup, Massacre 5 will definitely miss Madness Day. I'm done with the first batch of new sprites so I actually started. I also stopped playing D2 altogether so that won't be a distraction anymore. Things are looking up.

I figure I won't make it for Madness Day, Sept.22, but I still plan on making a Massacre 5 video with, hopefully, many improvements from #4.
First off, I've been making many new sprites in addition to the existing sheets originally available to make motions seem more fluid. This increases my work-load many times over. Happily, I've finished editing Cyan sprites and moving on to the next one. If I can just stop playing D2 long enough to finish a 2nd sheet, I'll see just how good these things will look in action.
