Meet the “Nest”

So this enemy isnt going to be super exciting due to the fact that at its core its just an alt to an existing enemy.. but i realllly love how they look ingame and this post can give you a good idea of how my design sketches turn into animated sprites.

the nest is a fleshy bloated version of the hive, invested with spiders and covered with puss filled spider bites. much like the hive they spawn small enemies like the ones they cough up, but the nest also spawns something else when it dies.. but thats for a later post.

so after a few back and forths for the visuals matt came up with this final sprite for the nest.

as a little bonus i went ahead and gave myself brimstone + 3rd eye so you can see what a triple brimstone shot looks like.. do keep i mind this is still a very early version and is missing, visual polish and effects.

and just for fun, here is another gif of a few very familiar faces…

TILL NEXT WEEK!
