Besides artists OGA also seems to have an active community of Developers, so i think it would benefit greatly from it helping out with the site's code, too. And yes, i also think that OGA could use some love. At the moment it feels a bit like there are people who would like to help, but cannot - besides donating which is not possible for everyone.
By the way, here is OGA's donation page: https://opengameart.org/donate (unfortunately the Flattr link is broken, Bitcoins don't seem to be supported anymore and there is no Liberapay account).
I really hope this thread doesn't make anyone feel pressured. We're all happy that a site like OGA exists and well, that it works. It would just be awesome if someone would tell us about the current state of this and if there's something we can already help out with besides donating. Maybe there's some way for us to help out preparing OGA for a repo. Or maybe some of us could help out keeping the site running. Anything! :)
This spritesheet sells like hotcakes. Four days and it already was downloaded twice as often as the original in half a year. Well, spritesheets are much more convenient than GIFs. :)
You write that you intend to resize the 'taur to make it bigger, it seems to be double in size. That means your spritesheet and mine remain different projects, so there's no work unnecessarily done twice, but we can still catch a glimpse at each others 'sheet for reference! :)
Just noticed your upload. Funny coincidence! Additional up and down sides would make it really complete, especially a death animation. Looking forward on your progress on this.
I'm considering giving it a try on my sheet as well. I didn't know Redshrike provided up and down facing sprites! :)
@MedicineStorm: Thanks for the response. That's nice to read! Looking forward to that development :)
Even if, it would be perfectly fine. There can never be enough slimes! :)
Cool, it looks very similar to mine: https://opengameart.org/content/slime-monster-24x24 :)
@Bulbousonions13: Glad you like it :)
@AntumDeluge: Very nice! :)
I found a quoted comment from two years ago from bart at the GitHub repo of Godot talking about releasing OGA: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/5253#issuecomment-226925236
