Description Download for animation!
There is a strobe-effect however!

I'm pretty sure this is in the right category. I don't do much pixel art. XDD; Also, it goes at different speeds between Imageready and windows browser, so we'll see how fast it really goes. Either way, I meant for it to go as fast as it could.

So! A couple of weeks ago, I was talking to , and she told me she was playing this game that she thought I would like and sent me a link.
It's called Eversion , it's a free game you can download for Windows. It's a really short, easy game (seriously I think it's only 8 MB to download), but I really, reeeeeeeeeeally liked it. XD;; It's this little pixelated platformer, and you're this little...flower...dude, and you're running through the level collecting gems, right? Only the more levels you go, the more you have to evert, that is, switch into another dimension to get past obstacles. The deeper the dimension you go, the scarier it gets. 8DD;
If you don't want to play it/can't because of your OS, you can always watch youtubes of it. o_o Here's level one. And you can just watch from there, etc.

Alright! Well, it so happened that I liked playing it/enjoyed how the monsters transformed so much that I decided to make an animated homage to it. 8 frames, 1 for every dimension, plus black frames between them to make it spooky. It's also speedy because some of the panels are more crappy/inconsistent than others, so now it's harder to tell. (for example, the muzzle changes size, sometimes the nose etc. a lot of little things) XDD My favorite panel is the first one, the one I used for the preview. Sy looks epic. 8U This was really difficult to make, actually, for only 8 frames! And it took me a looooong time (on and off for the last few weeks), but I'm still really happy with it. XDD
Sy...like...closes his eyes while growing a single one. Come on now, that's pretty cool.

Sy belongs to Myself

Can you do single frame pics? It's hard to see the details of the middle ones...

Also, this is on TV tropes!

Oh yeah, that would have been pretty cool if I'd animated it in flash. :>

I played this all the way through with a friend and we determined this isn't the kind of game you play because you want to. It's the kind of game you play because you have to... And by God is it freaking terrifying.

I love Eversion so much. ;___; It's such a simple game but something about draws me back again and again.

Don't get me wrong, I love the game, it's just that the nature of the game is so dark and unpleasant it doesn't come off appealing. In other words: isn't exactly Super Mario.

I checked the game out. It's a terrifying concept in a way I can't describe

Corvarrow In reply to DaCoolGuy [2010-09-01 06:03:43 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you like it! ;D I was obsessed with it when I first played it, since it's a relatively simple but neat concept. But when you beat the game, all of the gems you collect stay collected and you can't just start over! I ended up deleting the game and re-downloading it so I could play through it again.

I've watched a Let's Play of Eversion not long ago, made by some scottish guy with a thick accent and absolutely NO idea of what was coming. Did enjoying his slipping into fear and madness made me a bad person? 8D

EVEEEERSIIOOONNNN god I've played this game way too much now.

Seriously, this is like the coolest homage to that game ever, oh my god. I LOVE THIS. XD And I'm really glad you liked the game, ahahah. <3

The game really made me think of all of the different "layers" of reality that you used in some of your Ahveph/Five stories with the sions and stuff like that. So it's really awesome to see this, bahahah... PURPLEWORLD SY looks awesome. >O}

Oh my god. *____* I beat the game really fast, but I still really liked it a lot. ;___; wtf. It's so... MESSED UP. Like..I don't even know. The level that the hands started appearing in, it took me like half an hour of dying before figuring out that the black parts don't hurt you >_> And then later when the hands are all shooting across the screen...yeeep. And the fact that the game quits to desktop when you hit an ending was really ...wow. Thanks again for showing me! <333 It's all burned into my head now. <__>

Buuuut. ;____; I'm really happy that it made you think of that, Kellu. *hughug* I want to write more about the different layers sometime, but the fact that you thought of me at all is awesome. D:

Ooooh, I have been meaning to ask, have you seen lj lately? 8U I had an artdump with the Sy-with-flaveclothes in it and I didn't know if you saw that or not. o3o

tigglespits In reply to Corvarrow [2009-02-18 03:12:27 +0000 UTC]

SRSLY ME TOO. XD I beat it in maybe... three hours?~ But I was sitting with Anna and she was kindasorta hinting at what to do, like she told me I could go through the black parts (so that I didn't DIE OF FRUSTRATION Oh god XDD;;!!) And oh god, that level where all of the different sayings start popping up where the "READY!" should be? FFFF XD "I SEE YOU" ;____; gnhngnhg!!

;____; Ohhhman, well, well... your ideas are always like really inspiring to me. And when I can connect them to other things, they're even MORE inspiring, and then it's like, fff, happyoverload.
OE!

OH MY GOD NOOOO I missed that! I've been so busy with everything that LJ is one of the things that's really slipped out of my grasp D'8 I'M GOING TO GO AND LOOK AT THAT RIGHT NOW
and I am so sorry that I haven't delivered a Stark!Verky yet. I've been trying, I promise! ;o; *fails at everything right now*

Awww!! XDDD Admittedly, I got my brother to download and try to play it...<__> I was watching him try to get past the hands, and laughing so bad at him. Then I showed him how you get past, and he facepalmed. BUT YES. The different sayings startled me bad! I didn't expect THAT to change at all!
BEHIND YOU.

Nono, it's okay! XDD I know you're like, CRAZY BUSY with school and stuff, so I didn't know if you missed it, or if you saw it and were just too busy lately, or what. XDD So it's all good. <33

Even though YouPoop crapped out on me before I got to see the end of the level 8 walkthrough, it looks sufficiently creepy, as does Sy.

Honestly, I can't see the mistakes of which you speak - it looks damn fluid to me - but that might be the result of the strobing. OONTZ OONTZ OONTZ

BEST RAVE EVER, AMMIRITE? :'D

Level 8 was...man, that level drove me nuts. <_> Since the dimensions change completely at random I kept falling through blocks at the wrong time, or...not when I needed to. 8'D Ah well. It's a fun game! *LOVES CREEPINESS*

Umm...!! Well, yes. XDD That's part of why I put the strobe in, so you can't tell so easy. <_< But I'll try to remember to upload the still frames to lj so you can see how inconsistent some art. I mean, for the most part it's alright, but the muzzle/nose shape has some..issues.
OH GOD most awesome and terrifying rave ever XDD
