A map of the starting area of my quest. As you can guess by the name, it's a town in Faron Woods. The map is about half done, and ignore the mountains on the right side, they're not done yet.

Oooh very nice. This map is beautifully unified and flows like a true GB region. I have no complaints.

Wow, this is glorious! icon_love.gif I have no complaints either.

I do have one point that's not a complaint, though. Have you tried using a little more colorfulness? The map is extremely green, and that's not bad, but I wonder if it would look nicer with a more lively color selection, such as red/pink/blue flowers here and there, or even the oddly placed grey rock in some corner (not pushable, just decoration)...

Very nice Jared icon_smile.gif

It looks quite similar to older works from you. Is it a remake? Just curious icon_wink.gif

Nope, it's not! What does it look like, if it looks like a remake? o.o

I can see that it's not complete yet, as there are incomplete screens towards the bottom left corner. There is also a tile error with one of the bushes in the lower right corner. Other than that, I see nothing wrong.

Nope, it's extremely close though.
And I didn't see that! Forgot a layer for the top. icon_razz.gif
Thanks!

You have officially become Robin's spiritual successor. It looks so much like Hylian Phoenix did before Robin changed the graphics, then quit ZC. Keep up the good work, I'm excited to see where this leads.

It reminds my of the first area from rocs remembrance. But if that wasn't the plan, well, maybe I'm just a loon icon_razz.gif

Still good either way icon_smile.gif

I'm not sure exactly what it is, but something about the grass colors look off to me. I think instead of just being different shades of the same green, they are different places on the color wheel. Now normally I think this is good, but it may have gone a little too much so? As in the accent green has too much blue, or something. I can't pinpoint what feels wrong. Other then that, good map.

FefeRawft, that map is exceptional! It flows like an actual Gameboy Zelda game would, but set up to be more pleasing to the eyes. Great work!

Continuing in the same idea as my last shot. Sorry about the lack of subscreen and the lack of Link, I'm just trying to get a feel for Zelda Classic again.

Of course you are! icon_love.gif

And HK, I like my palette. It just gives off a nice look, in my opinion. I really like that screen, with your palette also. It gives off a dark look. Wonderful job!

This is what I've been working on for a few months. It isn't much, but I've been adding graphics and palettes for the most part.

http://zc.celestialr.../234_screen.png

I think it's pretty.

What do you guys think?

P.S. the 3 screens in the top-right corner are just test screens. Ignore them.

If that link doesn't work, try this.

I like the screens, except for the browns on the tops of the trees.
