Facepunch Donates to TFYC - Raise $2k, Design a Character! - General

[QUOTE=Marden;45909692]Just gonna say this. That Cat actually has something to do with FP, turning it into an anime cat is just being influenced by 4chan again.[/QUOTE] it doesn't have to be a anime cat just that cat with a similar personality to sakamoto. his personality fits right into the FP personality.

Please Excuse the terrible photoshop. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/lZKbpPQ.png[/IMG] Basically this (box obviously not off centered) and give him a collar with a Winner rating as the tag. The idea of the box only covering the top part of his head is something I really liked. Plus if he's That Cat might as well make him look dumb.

[QUOTE=Eonart;45909812]Don't we need permission or something from Garry to use the FP logo? Whatever game being made is going to be sold so there might be copyright and stuff.[/QUOTE] Probably wouldn't be suprised if he allowed it tho

We should name the cat Doug

[QUOTE=galimatias;45909826]We should name the cat Doug[/QUOTE] DOUG [B][B]FASTER[/B][/B]

Or Rusty, if we want to follow the original ideas. Still not sure what looks better though, a ushanka-style hat box or the box fully covering his head. In between doesn't look great.

Fully covering the head with the box is going once again too far with references to me.

ok what if he wears the hat as like a helmet, so that either the box has little holes for it to see out of or part of the front is partially cut off? Like this: [T]http://i.imgur.com/DZtl00dl.jpg[/T] I also like the idea of him being this fat, smug little jerk who hates on everything he sees. Without his box: [T]http://i.imgur.com/HZsV8wTh.jpg[/T]

Ushanka, he's a homeless cat that roams the streets, generally people look after him when they see him, the communities cat - in a sense. No relationship to FP, I just like the idea.

[QUOTE=Wii60;45909789][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/AQnxJ3y.png[/IMG] 25% there[/QUOTE] 20 days left for 1500$ 75$ per day is what we would need to get a character. We raised 500$ in about 4 days. We can do this. Anyways about the character itself, I vote for that cat, because otherwise we might end up like Reddit. Although the concept of the girl with the big nose is good as well. Generally, minimalist is better than cluttered as fuck, better not force a ton of Facepunch memes into it.

First interview for one of the devs:[URL="http://thefineyoungcapitalists.tumblr.com/post/96827585270/the-creator-of-after-life-empire-speak-to-her"] http://thefineyoungcapitalists.tumblr.com/post/96827585270/the-creator-of-after-life-empire-speak-to-her[/URL] if this helps your creative juices somehow

[QUOTE=Marden;45910052]Fully covering the head with the box is going once again too far with references to me.[/QUOTE] It's not really any more of a reference than just wearing it like a hat. Anyone who isn't aware of Facepunch will just assume it's a 'cats like boxes' joke anyway.

[QUOTE=Combine 177;45908496]What about we vote on that [url]http://strawpoll.me/2506826[/url][/QUOTE] Just use ratings for votes, much easier and you get only users from here once each.

You are all probably sick of seeing this nerd, so I will stop after this. [URL="http://i.imgur.com/RmmBZoo.png"][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/RmmBZool.png[/IMG][/URL]

FP confirmed for italians

I feel like we should do something with the designs that [I]don't[/I] make it through. Because some of these are pretty good.

[URL="http://i.imgur.com/RmmBZoo.png"][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/RmmBZool.png[/IMG][/URL][/QUOTE] I know this is well drawn and all but i think us being a cat makes us seem more unique than just copying an apathetic teenage girl, which is what reddit and 4chan have already done.

or we could do [i]THE MASKED PUNCHER[/i] [img]http://i.imgur.com/HTUTn3T.png[/img]

Perhaps have the different ratings on the collar's leather as well?

[QUOTE=Blackfire76;45914599]Why not literally this. The nerd with that cat as their pet.[/QUOTE] because vivian already has the nerdy/apathetic thing covered

[QUOTE=ashxu;45914604]because vivian already has the nerdy/apathetic thing covered[/QUOTE] true true [editline]7th September 2014[/editline] well the character really should capture the essence of that special cat

[QUOTE=onebit;45914759]How about a cat with no references to facepunch?[/QUOTE] A cat to begin with would bare small reference to facepunch because of That Cat.

thatd suck itd literally be just a cat

I'm stuck between That Cat and the Sentai now. Lets keep the donations going so we can actually have something.
