For a game called Vampires vs Werewolves. Red/Purple things are vampires, Green/Brown things are werewolves.

This is how the game looks right now.

They're being animated by Tyvon. You can see some more stuff here http://vvwangelsoflondon.com/

The bomb is at that angle because it's launched at about a 20 degree angle towards the ground. If the plane is attacking a unit in the air it uses the guns mounted on the sides.

ah so you just flip it?
i thought the first mockup showed it being rotated with code.

also not sure how to feel about the plane's propeller.
overall pretty awesome.

Oh, dude! I think I saw your concept designer (or at least that wolf) on gameartisans! Does he do 3d, because I saw a 3d version of that.

I think it's too bad the HUD uses gradients and such, whilst all the rest has top-notch pixelart. Maybe the HUD is a WIP, but I'm really not liking it, currently.

Lexou: I somewhat agree, but this saves time. I don't have to redraw assets for the HD versions of the games. The Vector graphics were originally HD.

Vampires vs Werewolves?
Doesn't that name seem just a little bit generic...?

I could be wrong, but I'm sure I've heard of multiple games with that name, how are you managing pulling it off without breaking any copyrights?
Love the artwork for it nonetheless. :>

To my knowledge neither word has a copyright attached to it, so there's no reason it couldn't be used. The name is meant to be generic so it can be easily found on places like iTunes.

if it was vampires vs zombies you'd hit two hipster trends in one.

It's nice, I like the werewolf side, but the vampire side doesn't make sense.
Shouldn't vampires elegant looking, with a black cape and two sharp teeth and pale white bodies. Or something that resembles that?

It's this one: http://mrnorth.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2soaw8

I'm more worried about the Plants vs Zombies vibe from the name, actually. No biggie.
