Title: Dopples' Depository of Dem Dar Pixel Arts (latest: little nemo remake)
Post by: Doppleganger on September 22, 2007, 06:02:12 pm
I decided that I probably need a dump topic. I don't really make stuff all that often but, it's not a bad idea to have one place to go when I've got something finished to post.

Remake of Little Nemo for nes for the weekly challenge at pixel joint. Uses 9 colors from the nes palette, otherwise no restrictions were followed.

Awesome work man!

And besides Nemo was among my best NES games.

hmm I think the colors are a bit washed out, but attractive, none the less.

His heads too small compared too the picture of him. And is this like something to do with the clown being trippy?

Really nicely done technically and all but I think the characters should have a different colours from the background or the background should be less contrasty.

Hey, hey! Little Nemo!:>

I agree with Ptoing,the characters get lost in the background.
Maybe make the background a little less saturated?

But if you're adamant about the color count...:V

Thanks for the comments.

Toning down the mushrooms would probably do a lot to help the characters pop out more. It's too late for me to fix this up for the challenge but, maybe I'll revisit this at a later date. Ditch the low color count and do this piece a little more justice. I spent five hours straight on this, working 'til four in the morning, so I wasn't all that with it by the time I finished.

As for the premise of the piece; I started out with the idea that I'd remake the game with a theme more fitting to the tripped out comic that it spawned from. In the end it just turned out into an amalgamation of whatever I felt likes. heh.
