First time trying out PTUX's overworld graphics. I also made the ice in the second picture. Here they are without the falling snow, so you can see the screen better:

Octorockoncrack: Good screens. However, in the first one, you could move the trees to the corners and leave some more space to walk around. icon_wink.gif

I would imagine, looking at how the roof overlaps the tree at the top left, that there's a 1 tile wide pathway behind the house already.

Also, that ice is pretty awesome.

Thanks a lot guys! I guess it paid off making that ice, because it was originally an experiment. But now I'm at an standstill on one of my screens.

Here is the mountain in my title screen:

IPB Image

Now, this mountain will be part of the overworld, and I want to keep the colors of the mountain relatively the same. I already brightened the colors a little bit, but I think they still look a little odd. Now, most of my quest has icy/snowy areas, so I need to make ways to make each area unique (the ice I made for the Frozen Lake is an example). I want this place to look almost like some kind of post-cataclysmic or nuclear winter. Here is what I had so far:

Does anyone have any ideas of how I could make this palette loook better, or if it's fine as it is?

I don't like the blue mountains, and they seriously clash with the light-colored trees.

Octorockoncrack: The pallet needs some work. The blue is too dark and it doesnt go well with the white of the grass. Also, the mountain is too squary.
Tip: In a mountain like that, it woulb be better having less colored vegetation. Now, if you were aiming for a Boreal look, you could try trees more like this:

0:13 - 2:13 (this video is not mine)
(the trees change colours).you could try that in one of your areas. icon_wink.gif

There's a debate for custom subscreens, but it's very nice.
Is it a remake of Link's awekening?

I figured as much. I tried something different now.

I'm not worried about the screen itself right now, just the palette.
