Nulled obviously, although I do think this is some of my best work!

Yoshimi - Not bad, but not incredible either, it's well detailed and a great GB screen, but it seems empty and the color of the grass compared to the trees seems... off?

Jared - Decent dungeon screen, but like I said to Yoshimi, something seems a bit off. I think it's the GB push blocks, but I don't know, I'm tired.

I'm in total love with Jared's lava I just like how it's spewing flames. icon_drool.gif It really builds up the hot atmosphere!

PS - Don't use the wooden shield. icon_deformed.gif

EDIT: some criticism, try making the rails that are near the blocks pale-gold like the walls. icon_smile.gif

Yoshimi - I'm not a fan of the palette, I think it's the underbrush and maybe something in the trees. The shot itself is fine, though, nothing needs to be changed about it.

Jared - I voted here, it's a solid dungeon shot with neat lava effects, nothing I'd change. I could critique the subscreen, since, well, it needs a little more variety to it; that one-color scheme just looks kind of bland. But the shot is good. icon_razz.gif

FefeRawft - Best shot, 5 stars. icon_thumbsup.gif

Voted for Jared. Looks like someone is using the pokemon wildfire! I used that before and I will be using those again when I get my tileset picked out...... oh, and nice dungeon screen. icon_heh.gif

Yoshimi: Once again, you show how the GB set was made to be used. I have no complaints.

Jared: I like what I see here. The screen is well designed, and the flares coming out of the lava are a cool idea. But they kinda bother me. The lava there is "crusted lava", the mode think, hardening kind that doesn't normally shout out flares of fire. It's a minor thing, but it bugs me a bit; the fire flares might go well with non-crusted lava. In addition, the tiles under the doorways look kind of weird. Shouldn't they be the same as the floor tiles?

FefeRawft: And here I thought the horrible joke screenshot fad died out long ago. icon_frown.gif

I voted for Yoshimi in the end, although Jared came close. Good job, both of you.

Jared, I really like your screen a lot. What bug me though, is 1) the wildfire (what Russ said), 2) the GB pushblock (I'm sure we have tMC alternatives) and 3) the LttP pot (we have tMC alternatives). I would have voted for it regardless. icon_smile.gif
Does the player have bombs available when s/he gets into the dungeon? Dodongos would make wonderfull minibosses for the setting and they are weak enough to be handled with three heart containers.

FefeRawft, I like the Triforce on the palm tree. Is it on a vacation?

Thank you very much. And I'll see if I can find those MC ones...I need them so bad. xD

Sadly, no. Only the sword!

He told me it's the "full" Triforce. icon_razz.gif

tough call. Yoshimi's screen is great in every way, but Jared's screen is mesmerizing. what looks to be a skull within the lower flaming lava has me transfixed. Fefe's screen is beyond lame, which seems to be the point. my vote goes to Jared. good one, guys!

I hope Jared thought it was funny, too. sometimes he likes to make mountains of molehills, so to type, but I thought that was a safe way to make that joke. seriously, though, even though this week's contest didn't have many submissions, it was an amazing set of entries. keep 'em coming!

I honestly voted for FefeRawft. I'm happy to see some lighthearted humor in light of recent events. That said, the other 2 shots were quite good this week.

Yoshimi: The exit points of the screen are perfectly aligned. While this isn't inherently bad, it doesn't feel right in something that isn't supposed to be manmade like a forest. The middle of the screen also feels a little bit empty. Great palette though. 8/10

Jared, very solid shot but the white walls/black roof just bugs me. x__x That said, I like the lava structure of the shot. 7/10
