Could you explain the process for making the weapon sprites?

Do you just model the high poly and bake AO/normal maps down to a plane based on the player's viewpoint? But you just use a very small texture size to keep it pixellated?

thats pretty much it :). I also keep it pixelated so it's fast to make, the "high poly" is actually a very crude lowpoly blockout, but since the sprite is so small it works well enough! It takes me about 2-3 hours from concept -> modelling -> final ingame sprite with normal map this way, fast enough to make a lot of guns for my game :D

thanks guys!

SHOTGUN:

So the three guns I made are the basic weapon "types". Guns with the same color will share the same ammo, so you have to decide what gun to waste your ammo on :).

Blue are raycast-based weapons, like shotguns, pistols, machinegun, railgun etc

Red is explosive based, grenade launcher, rocket launcher, mine launcher etc

green is energy based like the plasma gun, lighting gun etc, these could be some weird weapons :).

There will also be special novelty weapons in the future that might do other things than shoot and have their own ammo type, but more about that in the future :).
