shwamshwam1 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The grass hurts my eyes, the light green bits anyway, maybe darken them a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octohunter Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Agreed, grass is a bit painful on the eyes. You could try softening the texture a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sickey Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Grass looks much better now. But the house looks really weird. The perspective is really weird, the house is like top down, but the items are not, for example the windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.LLoyd Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 For the trees prob they need more depth or idk ? and for the house thats how the old school games were made.For example look at the videos i posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdoc Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 the tiles look pretty good.. my only criticism would be that the grass has a funny looking texture, specifically where you can see the shape of what i can only describe as a fiddlehead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.LLoyd Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 The grass is my weak side any help on it will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ertzel Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 It's nice to see another Dransik/Elderlands type game is being worked on. Zacaras Empire was based on both those games when I was making it with Eclipse although I quickly found out Eclipse is not the best for a game like that and moved to C++ instead of vb6\. I hope your version of it goes good and actually gets released though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.LLoyd Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thanks i remember your game i wanted to play it couse i love those type of games more than the 3D ones.And how is your project going ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertzel Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 About to start the first round of testing on the C++ version of the game (called Eldoria) I'm working on soon, just having some problems with the server right now.I wish I still had the source to Zacaras Empire so I could let you take whatever you wanted from it for Elder Empire but I lost all of the source codes for it awhile back.

SawQuart Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 You may want to stretch the screen a bit so that everything doesn't appear so tiny, while keeping the 16x16 tiles and look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
