How do those peahats fly so well in the snow?

As of voting, me and one other person have cast votes, but only one screen has a vote, and this post has been up for ~5 minutes. Does someone just go and null every SotW? Anywayyyyssssss....

 

I voted for Sheik, mostly 'cause having a nice pure screen is a great change of pace from all the GB stuff recently. That's not to say that the GB screens are bad -- in fact, they're really nice, but yeah, oversaturation makes their attractiveness have diminishing returns.

Klop422 - I am not a big fan of the colors, the snowstorm or the tileset, but it simply is a great classic snowy mountain screen. Voted here.

Dimentio - that isn't a red lucario I assume? It's a great screen, beautiful palette, setting and tiles, only feels kinda lifeless?

Orithan - not sure what to say. It's a nice yuurai screen. The symbols look a bit like they lack depth compared to the rest.

Eddy - very nice screen, the gray/brown might be a bit too colorless though and the green of the cacti is a bit eye poking. The right/up corner is also quite empty, does kind of fit the atmosphere though.

Sheik - that's a nice one, very atmospheric. The palette look to me like the sun started going down. Obvious flaw are the transition between mountain/grass/dirt.

Klop:

I've been quite reserved on how Peppermint Peak and the other snow area in 1 Screen Massacre looked for a while. I am not a huge fan of the mist combined with the falling snow because it feels a tad too obscuring. Maybe it would look better with less falling snow. The walkways feel a tad narrow but it is not a big issue here since the only things you fight here are Peahats. Aside from that, keep up the good work.

 

Dimentio:

This... I've never seen before. This has definitely caught my interest, even if the layout feels generic. I would be asking questions about this curious location and immediately investigate the area. Well done.

Greencacti, Greencacti, Greencacti everywhere. The End.

 

>.> <.<

 

Okay, I will write a serious review now. This is an interesting. It feels very arid, like that of a desert cave and all the little details help bring the immersion across. The greencatci do admittedly poke out a bit much (pun intended) and it isn't nearly as interesting as the others to look at.

 

 

Shiek:

This is an all round lovely screen. Nice, fresh and charming and it does do a lot to keep the player interested. I can't find anything wrong.

 

I null voted because I was in

Thank you very much.

Shots were all so good I had to null.

 

Special shoutout to klop for not only the dedication of using this particular style, but also improving on it. I'll be nominating you to the superlatives for most improvement if I hadn't already missed the opportunity due to my inactivity.

Next January for the next nominations.

 

Also since I haven't made any post about the shots yet, these are all a really solid set of shots. Very tough picking out one to vote for, but ultimately I went with Sheik. Nice job guys!

Voted for Dimentio this time around because of the French in the caption because I really liked how the sky theme was integrated to the screen and overall I think it looks the best both visually and atmospherically. Great job to all though!
