Music by Iceferno, who will also be composing music for the race itself!
Closing date: TBC (staying open for at least 2 weeks though)
How to take part...
1 - Download any of the sprite sheets below as a template...
Standard kart:
Bowler Tyres:
Fedora:
Bonnett:
Woolly (Patreon Exclusive):
2 - Turn it into your own racer, and fill in the name (bottom right) using the letters given (top right).
3 - Send it to me on Twitter:
You can send them to me directly, but I'm more likely not to miss them if you #HLGsBigRace or reply to this tweet with them:
(please preferably use PNG image format)
Done!
I may not be able to reply to everyone, but please only send me your submission once (unless you want to make changes), as sending them more than once means having to check more.
PATREON REWARDS!
If you're a patron, rewards include (depending on tiers):
- Bigger templates of the standard karts (almost double the size) meaning your vehicle, or add-ons can be huge! Bigger templates can be downloaded here:
- The exclusive vehicle, the Woolly (a monster truck!).
- Up to 15 spaces (5 for each tier) will be reserved for Patrons, increasing your chances of being included.
- Some players will get mentions or screen time at the start of the race, 3 of these will be reserved for Patrons.
- I'm also happy to take ideas from members of the highest tier and help out with small parts of their vehicle, or get their player to do special stuff in the race, though I'd recommended asking about this one before signing up as it depends on how many requests I get and what you have in mind.
Please also note the Patron exclusive vehicles are exclusive mainly to add variety, if everyone had access to the monster truck there would be too many monster trucks in this race! XD
No you don't have to resubmit if you have already before this video, but you can if you want to make changes!
You can change the sprites in the template as much as you'd like to (player and kart), but stay in the green lines, and keep the sprites pretty much in the same position on the sheet.
Any styles are considered as long as the sprite sheet layout isn't changed or resized, though I'm particularly going for a Super Mario Kart (SNES) style.
Please keep to OCs (your own characters). If you want to create a character based on a character you don't own, this is USUALLY ok if you do not use the copyrighted character's name in the box.
Do not use any content you do not own ( like a hat from another game's sprite), keep it all your own material.
Please make sure the entire sprite sheet is completed, including all poses and your name (or OC's name), the name will appear above your character during the race.
Please note the name above your character might be the only credit you'll be given in the video (due to the high number of participants). You don't have to, but please bare that in mind when 'naming' your character as you might like to give them your name.
Please know that by submitted sprites I have permission to use them, and may share them to others for ideas and inspiration, etc!
Thank you so much for taking part or dropping by, the other collaboration videos I've done like this have been so much fun, and it's always really great to see everyone's creativity!
Any questions, please ask (I usually reply on Twitter, I try to here but there are more things to reply to on YouTube so can't always)
You can also email your art to me, though I won't check email as often: hatlovinggamer@hotmail.com
