Well, it's spinning and shooting. Its function is to spin and shoot.

I personally am not a fan of the spinny-gun, but if that's what mgb and Fenix are going for, then I support it.

I think everyone should be a fan of 20 rounds a second and a 150 round magazine.

This is all still pretty primordial guys, I think that if either one of us finds a more interesting or good looking design, we'll take it. For now there's something for mgb to work on.

I think you need to do something to make him more unique. I get that he might be a basic trooper, but it just looks pointlessly bland. I suggest a recognizable mask or piece of chest armour, since those are where the eye travels first.

First off, I'd like to say that it's not about making me happy, it's about giving your characters some extra... well, character. If your character design is poor, the gameplay will have to be incredible in order for it to stand out as a good game. I'm not saying I doubt your ability to make a good game, just that characters are vital to keeping someone immersed in the game. Just remember that it's your decision in the end, I'm just making suggestions.

That being said, the armour looks better with the logo. I won't suggest changing the mask, because I understand the look you're going for. However, if you end up making one of those guys an important character in some way, give him some design on the mask (white and red/orange seems like a good choice to me).

A couple more suggestions:
1) I can't decide if giving him groin armour will look better or not, but I think you should try it out to see.
2) Change the design of the shoulder armour so that it covers more of the upper arm. It's far more likely to be hit in the front/back/side of the shoulder than the top.
3) I think the template is a little weird. Try shortening the neck a bit and making the arms extend to mid-thigh.

MGB, I'm still on vacation for the next week. Once I get back to my tablet I'll have a couple more sketches done. How's the project going?

Honestly, I'm gonna have to take a break for a day or two, or else I'm going to burn out. But on a separate note, I've got someone else who's programming stuff!

Wow. I honestly didn't know what to expect, but I'm surprised. This is looking good!

The code was cluttered, so I took it up personally and rewrote a lot of stuff to be clean and readable. As it stands, Jack can currently walk, sprint, jump, and crouch. I need to do those animations, but that's at the bottom of my list at the moment.. Tomorrow I hope to have him climbing ladders.
