I just wanted to share that I used Taron's Verve Painter in my Ludum Dare 30 game entry. I'm not a great artist, but I was able to make some interesting backgrounds in a short period of time using Verve Painter.

I used Stencyl, which has a similar "programming" interface to Scratch using blocks that snap together. I think Stencyl licensed the technology from MIT.

I didn't use Zbrush. I made the backgrounds in Verve Painter and then saved to PNG. Then I modified those images with Gimp. I used Inkscape to create the sprites, and the animations were done with Spriter.

I'm glad you liked it!

I'm hoping that more Ludum Dare entries start using Verve Painter. Too many people rely on pixelated graphics, which look very outdated. I discovered Verve painter after reading one of Dr. Petter's Twitter posts. I really appreciate you providing such a great art tool to the community!
