I think it's the overabundant (Too much) dirt. Try putting some more grass.

Yes, that's it. Make the path less wide; make it more skinny.

And this is some of your best designing. So just stick to this tileset, and make quest from it. You are getting no where re-making the same area's with different tileset. I got caught up in the same trap.

It's perfect. I think you've finally found your niche. Now go out there and start making a quest with this.

Jared, it looks pretty good, but I can't shake the feeling that it seems a but empty. If there's a small tree of some kind you could add to the left side of the river, north of the grass, I think that might make it perfect.

I think this looks pretty good, but I think you need to add some shadow under the land bridge, to make it look like it's a land bridge. icon_razz.gif If not, it looks a little odd.

I think this is looking pretty nice, but the flowers on the gravel path seem odd to me. I have always thought that it's weird to put them in gravel/sand/dirt paths, since that's what you think of as getting the most foot traffic. Otherwise this looks quite nice.

Another screen from my quest
IPB Image

Note: It is supposed to be pretty simple, but this screen seems to be missing something..


What happen to your GB quest? It looked nice.

A little too green, try a secondary colour for the tree. Also I feel like that the palette is making it feel empty. icon_shrug.gif

Other then that, it looks pretty cool. icon_thumbsup.gif

A little request.... FINISH YOUR QUEST!

I'll sure try to finish my quest, it's just a pain using ALttP houses, whenever I tried to make the screens below these with ALttP houses, they looked really stupid in the area I placed them...

Tip: Just place houses, I don't care where, just make it look good and finish the quest. icon_razz.gif

I would appreciate feedback, by all means. Though I am hoping for more than a, "that's cool." Please address full criticism.

This and my Z1 Remastering are my projects, going smoothly.

That is just amazing, Marco. is the palette from the game? It accommodates the tiles greatly. The structure is also great. No way back if you jump off! icon_razz.gif

I do have to say Marco, that your screen is very enjoyable. The whole nighttime theme that's going on is great. Do the stars sparkle at all? Very nice tilework! I would actually love to see this in action sometime. icon_smile.gif

Quest is coming along quite nicely, but this will be the last screen I show for awhile, I don't want to make the mistake of showing too much from my quest again.... icon_heh.gif

The water on the bottom left portion of the screen is missing a few tiles to go with the mountains. It looks like it's floating above it.
