This is the Temple of the Triforce from the intro to my quest. It's much better than in the original version of the quest, in which you don't see the outside . Tell me what you guys think. How can I improve this screen?

I'd say get rid of the bottom two fairy statues and pillars. Plus, it appears to be a lively place, so why not add some animals like rabbits or butterflies? I also don't really like the red color of the building, but this is just my opinion.

[King Harkinian]

Ok, thanks. I'll go see how it looks like that.

Too symmetrical. The high, bright colors don't really take keen to my eye. It seems you crammed everything you could in thar.

But seriously, I got so fed up with every tileset lacking what I need so I decided to scrap my edits, and begin a complete custom tileset all original works by me. This is just a little bit of what I have created, but there is so much more to come.

Very noisy, It will almost look the exact same if you reduce a few colors.

Im gonna have to disagree with you. I can see what you mean, but it's texture, full 8-bit

Just to show I've been up to something; Here's a screenshot of an old screen with a new overcast-ish palette.

Very beautiful, /M/. My favorite thing is the grass. The palette fits wonderfully.

[Marco]

Palette is too dry /M/. I think a slight bit of contrast will make the screen purely amazing... if it weren't so crammed.

[/M/]

Jared: Thank you.

Marco: Contrast and overcast do not go together, lol.. On a side note, when I previously showed this screenshot it was more a display of recently added tiles than anything else. You can take a look at my previous post in this thread if you want to see the same screen in more contrast.

I like the red bricks and I think a bit of angled (not square and blocky) grass tiles and moving the flowers around would fix the symmetry issues for the most part. good shots on this page, kids! great textures, Furion. nice everything, M.

Freakin' awesome. I actually kinda like lower contrast palettes.

Alright, I just prefer a low color count. Your textures look a lot like Minecraft!

Looks good, I would change either the trees or the forest brush so that they both are within the same style. Is the grass from the Mana games, by the way?

A minor thing: The MC trees are actually not supposed to be placed that close to each other. In your bottom left corner, I'd move the lowest regular tree one tile down. (You might have to move the pine tree a tile down, too.)

How's this?


I did a lot of the things the Dragonite suggested, the animals believe it or not would not work for this screen, however that is because of something plot related. Marco, I took a few of your suggestions, and made the screen a little less symmetrical (btw, it is supposed to make a triangle), and I simplified a few things to make it look a little less crammed.

Get rid of some, (or all) of the flowers and you'll be good
