I personally like the red. I watched the video you posted and the dungeon looks really great.

I'll say it once more: it's not bad. But usually most fire dungeons tend to be red, it'd break up the tradition and set it apart from other fire dungeons if he used something more fresh. But he's perfectly fine keeping this palette.

Thank you

 

 

It's just too red. It's not visually bad, but if you could make the walls more of a red-grey or gold, it might look nicer.

Ah okay I see what you're getting at. You're basically saying the saturation of the color red is too intense in a nutshell. Which is fine now that I understand what you meant by the red color.

The entrance of my final dungeon for the Legend of Amy Rose 2. This is probably the final product of what the entrance will look like, but I may change it if I get enough feedback.

I love the design and tile selection. But the colours don't scream "final dungeon" to me. It feels like a standard dungeon, you know?

Yeah I see where you're going at. That's actually the whole point of this dungeon, the first floor is meant to look like a regular dungeon, but as you continue on, it will start to seem like a real final dungeon. But I should probably change the palette for this floor, any suggestions?

[trudatman]

leave it, unless previous dungeons are filled with skulls and imposing statues.  in such a case, I would advise scrubbing that stuff from earlier levels and having them show up for the first (or close) time in the final level.  it looks good.

Something more dark such as a black dungeon palette. If you can get that feeling that it's going to be a generic final dungeon, then make it into something unsuspecting, then you'd nail the twist much more better.

 

Tru covered pretty much the alternative.

Got it. I might still keep the grey though, but make it more darker, although having grey as a palette is a thing with this dungeon. And besides, I did use the black palette for Level 5, so probably a dark-grey might fit better.

All I can say is WOW.

[trudatman]

those are great scenes, Scoots.  I'm hating (on) the link sprites and/or palette (or at least the faint outline).  I think the tiles need a set of rules for perspective, outline, shading, etc.

While the base design is alright, the style clash really takes away from these screens. 

[trudatman]

oh, yeah... you also need some mountain corners with grass because the triangles of grass look not very good.

The big trees are visually terrifying.  Either Link's outline needs greater contrast with his other colours or the outline of everything else needs less.  The cliffs from Z1 maintain an inherently flat perspective while all of the other graphics do not; the the houses and trees stick out like the pre-rendered three-dimensional sprites from Donkey Kong Country being spat out onto a circuit from Super Mario Kart.

 

If we ignore the graphical irritations, however, the screens are well designed and have a certain elegance to them.  The title of 'Mt. Eldin' intrigues me as to its nature.
