I have asked something along these lines at the Developer's Help forum, but I decided on it...

Anyway I'm making a Banjo-Tooie Lifebar based off the boss's lifebar...

Like so...

However this comes with some problems...

- I need some sprites, or someone to teach me the ways of spriting...
- The lifebar was originally small, so I'm debating on upscaling the sprites (if there are any) or keeping them as their original size
- Third, I need some ideas for the special bar, fight and round anims, and announcer voices...
