I don't know about yous guys but I don't want this thread locked icon_unsettled.gif. Lynker those are some beautiful sky dungeon screens icon_love.gif. I like the brownish colours to it. It rather flows good with the blue sky. Sadly those pillars/torches seem too random for me.

They're perfect. Now, it might just be because I'm biased towards floating levels, but I'm actually a bit envious. Those look amazing! I love how all the keys are just out of reach to taunt the player. Great work!

They look really nice, Lynker. I like the floating dungeon idea, too. The one thing I would change is the color of the sky. I think you should make it a slightly lighter blue.

Thank you! icon_biggrin.gif
I might add some walls around the boss key though because I just noticed the player could just jump over and get it xD

A lighter blue? I'm not a fan of toying with CSets, as I don't know how to do it :\

Link can jump that far? Is this with the default settings for Roc's Feather? I didn't know that...

It'd be a bit of work, but I have a better idea. Place some cannon/crystal/something sticking out of the wall. When Link tries to jump across and grab the key, it shoots out a bolt of electricity that hurts him and stops him, causing him to fall. That's how you really taunt the player. icon_razz.gif

I don't think you can in this case; I opened up the palette to make the blue lighter, but it uses CSet 7. Regardless, the screens look very nice. icon_smile.gif

I'm not sure. I thought Link can jump REALLY high with it?

And thank you, Moo!

Old-skool, it seems to be obvious that you dislike the critique thread, but the way you did so wasn't necessary. Since this is not part of a quest being made and is more of a pointless joke aimed at the screenshooters and critics, it is considered spam. If you wish to share an opinion about the purpose of this thread, please do so in the Assistance and Prepositions forum, or if you wish to be truly honest in what you say without major risk of a reprimand, post it in the Dropbox. May I remind you why we closed the original Screenshot thread in the first place, and penned this thread as a replacement - Some people could not take criticism and therefore would attack the critics. We wish to prevent this from happening again.

So please refrain from further posting shots that are not part of a quest that is in progress and have little value for the critics to critique. Thank you.


I have no problem with the critique thread. None at all. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ebola.

A screenshot cannot be spam if it was made in Zquest, and not from someone else's quest. This, my friend, is art. Not the art you are used to or come to expect in this thread, but a different type, perhaps more similar to Dadism. You can argue the point if you want, but ask yourself this: Why didn't I just doodle an ugly drawing of a zelda screen on line paper and post that!?

Linkus, this image is not a critical statement of anyone here (I'm fully aware of what kind of criticism is expected in this thread). Chill out, take a breather, and look through it again. It's just inspired by a funny line one of the mods said somewhere else. Hell, some of them even encouraged it.

Can't complain, except add a rock in the middle of he roads. It'll look more natural icon_biggrin.gif

The mountains are used wrong in the second screenshot. Other then that, they're decent. (I still don't like the way you make your paths.)
