Conra Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Vitin is a pro so i guess he is right. But i think it gives it character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broojo02 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I like that you got the paperdoll to put items on really well, no floating armour or anything :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzy Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 lol well thank you. I try not to put it in crazy places when I draw the items on the guy (; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukin Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Looks pretty good, although there are some repetitive patterns in the tiles which I would try and fix, like the brick walls, and also the lack of detail on the wall around the town, when you're walking down.I like the trees, but the bottom part of it should be smaller imo.

Bizzart Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 The paperdolls look good.But I think the trees are sorta colorful. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had some trouble with it, but I am still going to work at it, and honestly I couldn't agree more. There are still tons of things I think the town needs to make it look more legit. I was thinking of added tree stumps, fallen over wood, little seedlings around the trees, I've darkened the grass a slight bit to make it less bright. A well also. I've been trying to make the town inside the river look more townish than the rest of the town, so I think for it I'm going to add brick walk ways and a small town center.. Just thoughts. Outskirts need a lot added too. I need more small miscellaneous stuff on the grass to make it look less repetitive I just can't think of things to make besides what I've mentioned.

Toranos Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I actually commend you, most people just use pre-made graphics, but this doesn't look half bad. Yeah, colours may need a bit of a revamp, some colours I don't quite understand, and the buildings look rather awkward, but that deer is quite well made, and you have a lot to show.It's not easy creating tilesets, paperdolls, spritesheets and spells, so I definitely recognize the time and effort you've put into this, it's more than most can say they put into their games, heck, you've probably done more work than I have on Ambershire.Get a good palette, by searching the net or something, and you'll be set. It's really just a matter of practice with pixel art, and you're headed in the right direction Grizzy. Good job so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 A game with custom graphics and custom paperdoll will **always** draw my attention over a game that doesn't. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Comnena Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Maybe more ground detail would be nice. Another thing is your sprites are very flat. They are tall and large and face forward, when the view angle, they should be shown a bit more from above. They have no depth or perspective, really.
