gashin gets my vote, for all the custom thigns, I LOVE CUSTOMATION!
As for Mighty darknut, I don't realy like the shoulders for Samous, could you like add, a green circut or make it smaller?

Smaller? No. More detail? Probably not . I realize that they should be more detailed, but I like them the way they are.

Gashin's screen seems to have the most going on, and looks like it was the biggest effort. It is tough to top all of that. I question the color pattern on the bridge, but then again I am not sure what I am trying to say.

That by no means says that the other three didn't work hard, for I am sure that they did. Nice work all of you. I love the color choices in the Metroid screen, Mighty Darknut.

Gashin-Nice trees,the bridge could use alittle more texture,Rice Crabs...zOMG LoL -votes-
Mighty Darknut-meh,im already tired of seeing metriod graphics
Radien-a decent shot,still wondering what peripheral vision meens
Revfan9-another decent shot but not eye catching

Gashin finally entered again,yay

[NineLives]

I don't understand why everyone hoards over Gashins tileset?
I mean he did rip it from The Minish Cap right?
Maybe their are some custum stuff I am not noticing.
Anyone can download his tileset and make a screen you know.
Nothing personal Gashin, great stuff, nothing against you.
I just get upset because Gashin enters and everyone automatically loses because they don't use the same tileset, how many of you saw his shot and then completly shut the others out?

My vote goes towards Mighty Darknut, I like the bubble things.

I ripped sometiles from Minish Cap, granted, but I didn't just leave them as is. I think what people like is what I've DONE to the tiles, not what they are. plus, the path, bridge, and palm trees are custom

Hey Gashin, what's the big deal? PMing me to compliment my shot, right before you enter something that is apparently going to blow it out of the water. BAH! ...

"Custom, custom, we love custom!!..."

Eh. Custom is just some catchphrase people toss around. All it means is "drawn or altered." It's very vague. And yet people seem to get excited whenever the word is said.

Only part of Gashin's shot is from the actual Minish Cap tileset. Most of it is ripped before being altered, though, I know that. I've always thought that the most original thing about Gashin's shots have been the palettes, which some people love and some people don't (which is usually the case when something new is introduced). They're similar to Minish Cap, but as far as I can tell they are original.

Technically, my shot is about 80% custom, but nobody has even mentioned that yet. Oh well.


Gashin's shot:

I actually don't think this is one of Hyrule Fantasy's better shots. Minish Cap-style palettes have always been weakest when dealing with mountains and darker areas, in my opinion, and that applies to the swamp. Perhaps the contrast is too high. Don't get me wrong... it's a very nice shot, but most of the good elements have appeared in previous shots. And those onigiri-wielding crabs are still funny in the "Huh?..." sort of way.

Mighty Darknut:

This is actually a very solid shot. I like it very much. There's hardly anything I could say to improve it... except, perhaps, having some more stuff strewn on the cave floor. It looks a bit too flat and well-kept for being right next to lava.

My shot:

There is perhaps a bit too much of the same browns here. I may attempt to isolate the combos into two different CSets so I can make the rock (and sand, which isn't pictured here) a different color than the buildings.

Revfan9:

Indeed there's something weird... you've got burgundy lava right next to snow. Is it supposed to look like mud? It looks more like an odd palette swap. Otherwise the shot is decent, if standard Pure. One comment, though: as far as gameplay is concerned, I think you've crunched Link a little too close to the bottom edge of the screen.


P.S. - I null voted.

[.TakaM]

1st gashin - only thing I dont like is the dirt path tile, too messy it clashes with the style
2nd radien - the area, albeit nicely pulled off is kinda dull and boring.

that's how I work, see. I baloon your ego to soften the blow when I trounce you in the following competition. seeting you up to knock you down, you see

yeah, I'm a *****

.TakaM, the dirt looks better close up, as you can actually see the detail. though, I do plan to make more of a brick walkway for this area, so it'll look better

[CastChaos]

Gashin! Yes, voting for Gashin.
The palette and tileset are great and I always loved those trees.

Other three: Good, but not SO special, though I like that bubbles in the Metroid screen.

i would do it if i knew who was entering

but id probably enter even less if i did know,wouldnt be fun anymore

and Mighty Darknut have you given thought to using tiles that arnt from a metriod game for a metriod quest?
i think gradius tiles could make your quest look more original

[Rocksfan13]

Gashin! Love those trees.
