I showed one of my friends some screenshots of my quest, and have come to discovery that some of the palettes might hurt people with sensitive eyes, as such, I've changed a few colors to prevent this problem.

Examples:

Somebody mentioned to me that the pure black dungeon palette hurts their eyes somewhat. As such, I turned the pure black into a blackish color.

Example 2:

The person presenting me with this criticism said that the colors were too bright and it hurt their eyes. Another thing they pointed out, is that the walls look too much like floor tiles. As such, I added a border to make it look more like a wall as well.

Once the next (And hopefully, final) demo comes out, I'll be sure to ask if there's anything else that needs changing in the future.

So yeah, thoughts?

The new colors look pretty good, in my opinion. The original colors didn't really hurt my eyes at all, but I can see how it can hurt for some people. What you've done should work, in my opinion.

Ya, the new screens are much easier on the eye. The black outline on the revised image of example one still draws more attraction, but it's better that having your eyes exploding after they had melted and tortured.

 

Can't wait for the demo! Will play!

Did you fix the game breaking bugs too??/? ... Oh wait, joke already been done in previous update.

 

The changes are nice. Polishing always makes a game better.

Changes look pretty good. I don't see how the old colours hurt my eyes, but hey, I like the new colours

[Alestance]

They're alright if you don't want to stick within the NES's limited color selection.

Personally, the originals don't bother me, but I can see where they're coming from. Despite not being affected, I still think the newer palettes look better. Perhaps I'm not really much of a critic or I'm just easier to please.
