  1. Eh, it looks more tacky and lazy than what you are considering sexy. The tree doesn't have pop or definition..or creativity. There is no high definition at all. As an edit whatever, but if you ever consider this tree your creation you're stealing intellectual property.
  2. @Batman: > ![](http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/2456/swordbig.png) > would never work in real life. I don't know if you have but i've yet to see a 2 dimensional object work in real life… I've posted this in another thread, but a good way to get experience or learn how to use colour is to view old video game sprites: http://sdb.drshnaps.com/ http://www.spriters-resource.com/
  3. I went through each of the songs on there. In regards to pandemic, it's well done no doubt, however, to me it comes off a bit to chaotic. I feel what you were going for and feel the intensity but there is no power coming out of it to me. All the songs are very well done, but I have to say I enjoyed Wilt the most. Excellent work.
  4. Did you yourself alter this image or did you just have brightness contrast do the work? It isn't very well done, and I like the original more. However, the edit could have it's purpose in a lucid environment giving a dream like setting, when matched appropriately with similar graphics.
  5. @DDunit: > @~Ascid~: > > > No one here is giving me new info…stop posting here if your just going to tell me there bad, I already know, and I already knew that way before I even posted them. Stop telling me there bad now it's getting annoying -.- > > If you know something's bad, why do you even bother posting? > Try again, look at more tutorials and when it looks half-decent, post it. Then we'll comment on how good it'd look instead of saying how it's bad atm. Why not post here? He isn't looking for praise nor is he closed to our suggestions, he is learning and we can view and offer criticism to help him improve. They aren't horrendous just very basic. Just needs to keep practicing and my suggestion would be to view others pixel work to compare how they achieve their end result. http://sdb.drshnaps.com/ http://www.spriters-resource.com/
  6. yea i play it too, it's not bad. I'm a off and on player depending on my mood. Wouldn't mind having a group to play with.
  7. Well, it's neat. I didn't get quite into it. Few reasons I think: -Combat was cluttered and rushed, which i'm sure can be improved in some editing. My suggestion would be maybe to slow it down, or maybe even draw it out on paper and step 1,2,3 it so you can calm the chaotic action for the reader. maybe i'm not a writer. - Not much back story so i can identify with his persona (of course i know that isn't your objective yet) -The scenery wasn't well portrayed (I did like the weather in the first paragraph but as i read along i came to forget this, maybe more environment portrayed in battle? ie a muddy splash in a puddle, hair soaked, rain in eyes,ect. I didn't really know if this was in a grassfield, on a dirt road, in a forest, or is this a dark gritty area or a light a cheerful, i can't put a colour to it. -Need a little facial, and cosmetic brief. I don't know what i should think of the hero, nor these bounty hunters. small side note a "double handed sword" sounds tacky, drew his sword in both hands, grasped his great sword with both palms. I dunno kinda iffed me. More would be nice to read Maybe a fight with a feral creature during a travel to some form of civilization or supplies, don't really know what your realm contains, or your hero's mission objective. I can't tell if he is good, bad, cast out, or a hero in a corrupt society..

    Village Map

    @Kinjiru: > @skevsama: > > > Honestly, I really like it. I feel that because its "Breeze" everyone feels like it has to be perfect…all chibi, cute, blah... > > > > I like the mix of tilesets. I think its cool that it goes beyond the use of Breeze everything which is what a lot of games are doing. > > > > Idk, personally I like it. Recoloring is an option, but I wouldn't mind if things stayed the same ;) > > Exactly > I want the game to have a unique look, and not look like every other game that uses breeze. Plus the breeze sets have very little variation in building design, witch means all the towns would look very similar and boring. There are reasons for the mixing. > I want opionions on the map itself, not how much you dislike tileset mixing. The tiles are apart of the map itself. They represent the image and environment you are trying to portray. The other option would be to ask people if they like the LAYOUT of the the village, and if that's the case no, i do not. The layout isn't practical or special, it's just 3minutes of one of these here and one of those there. However, that isn't what you want, since you want to know what we, or in this case ,i think. The mixing of tilesets as stated do not work, and especially in this case. The village isn't very exciting, there is no life to it, no detail and no eco system. As well, in seeking a "unique look" you aren't achieving anything by using the most common tilesets. If you only want words of praise to boost your morale, which seems like you do by your very dismissive comment of everyone else's opinions and only embracing the positive one which met your personal credentials, please then rephrase your opening post to NOT ask for my opinion unless i think your mixed tileset, bland map is the next best thing since sliced bread. Or..you could always accept the opinion of others then choose to update, improve, or leave it as is. Nothing is ever going to be perfect but what your seeking is not opinion, it's praise.

    "Real life can wait" ? what about something like that, dunno if you're still taking suggestions. "Will your sword be the biggest?"
  10. well, i'll await the update. But what i don't like about it as of now is it's just to cluttered. There is to much black outlines filling the image it becomes really distracting. And colour wise it doesn't jive. This may be because of the thick outlines or something else, i'm not too sure. But just throwing on filters and altering saturation and contrast ect really isn't going to make it right, your going to have to get in there and pixel it yourself, tidy some things up ect. Again, only my own opinion.
  11. Looks good, but i would be more curious to see a 3 wide of it to see how it looks in repetition.
  12. no offence to you, but it looks horrible. Did you just use ink strokes or something in photoshop? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cel-shaded_animation you need to strive more for something like this, which would mean if you are going to use rmxp graphics, which i'd recommend against because they really aren't meant for it, you will need to take only their outline and simplify them.
  13. Request how current backup is… see if you can line it up. But yea, that is bullshit...Your paying for a service....which failed to serve.
  14. I've played this since first day beta, took a lot of long breaks…it's alright for the price you pay. Provides some fun, but it has a few quirks that really just put you off the game for awhile.
  15. regardless of it all good for him for taking action to get himself in check, everyone makes mistakes. It is rather unfortunate that the world is so quick to diagnose actions as problems and then justify it as not the persons fault, removing personal responsibility. The internet especially becomes an outlet for some people removing socially acceptable norms to become their inner self and remove that self control barrier. And on the topic of bullying…the society, especially western society has become pathetic. If something in someway irritates one person it is deemed bullying. People are unable to take a good humored insult. It's pathetic how everything is deemed bullying. A joke is a joke... physical harm is a different story. Yes, some people roll over and let themselves become victims and others lack the social skills to rationalize a joke is meaningless words interpreted to the magnitude they wish to take offense to. Assholery and Dickery make the world complete. If you can't handle it, the world is going to be a hard place for you. Western civilization is becoming full of pathetic cry babies.

    Logo

    I'm trying to think of the best way to describe this to you. Basically your center piece, the face, is more of a textured element of the logo. However outside the black the logo becomes very smooth, almost cartoon-ish in contrast to the center. The center within the black circle I suppose is fine, however once you begin the outer grey ring is where you need to improve, maybe add some texture or bevel. Give the rest of the logo some more attitude so as ones eyes roll from center outwards it is a smooth transition. I'm not a fan of the text either, it's not portraying the gloomy atmosphere it seems that you're trying to achieve. EDIT: to add, I think everything within the black circle looks fine, just beyond that needs to improve.

    Logo

    I don't like the logo. The colours don't jive. The image doesn't belong, at least in that form. You've used clean crisp shapes then just tossed a image in the center. Looks…sloppy.
  18. Cake, obviously. There is no contest. Pie is great but belongs on a holiday. However, cake is a year round awesomefest. Sometimes I go to Safeway and buy one of their half cakes, eat it from the platter with one hand while driving with the other hand. CAKE, pie can't do that. I get looks, but who has time for a fork??
  19. wasn't to great this year in my opinion but eh. Yea Vancouver is great, a little dull come night but oh well. I live out in Maple Ridge.
  20. watched the fireworks at vancouver…sucked balls. monopoly on the iphone was more fun while we waited. Their budget must be cut...
  21. I don't see why anyone is attempting to argue the way we see light. As godlord has established already is proven scientific fact, not a theory. We have an extremely good understanding off how the body takes vision and light to turn it into an image.
  22. Lol, Rick Astley a good choice. with that taken I think I'd go with either Rush, Burton Cummings or Van Morrison. no song specific however, being invincible, I don't really need to plan.
  23. you get condoms at drug stores, gas stations, corner stores, grocery stores ect. Just remember they are less effective then the pill, and less effective then "pulling out". Edit: also truck stop bathrooms….pretty much anywhere. Edit2: sorry, should have answered the question. which i'll do rhetorically, Why wait?
  24. yea the trees in relation to the log have a proportions issue. the black/white tile seems to large and might be displeasing in use. I like your orange rock/sand(?). The fountain could use some kind of texturing.
