Title: [WIP] Spooky Mockup UPDATED!
Post by: d.persson on December 12, 2008, 06:47:29 pm

I've been working on this mockup the last days and I would like some comments on it. It's my first one on Pixelation and it's WIP.
I'll put up original size aswell but Imageshack is messy at the moment.


EDIT:

I've been working some more on this mockup today, C+C is appreciated!

Can't wait to see original size.
I don't know about the rest of the guys on this site...but I would love to play a game that looks like this, the unoriginal size that is.
Nice work dude.

D.Person you should have your stuff available in 1x, it helps a lot.

Jim16: I'm glad that you liked it, you can see it in original size now.

bengoshia: I thinkt that's a bit too much contrast, but maybe I'll add a little more contrast to the original.

Any comments on high versus low contrast/saturation?

I like the higher contrast one. I am not able to put this into technical terms, but the low contrast one looks kind of fuzzy and washed out, while the high contrast one looks sharp and clear.

I really like some of the new details, however I loved the purple sky from the older version, I think it gives the piece more contrast, and just generally looks better.

I think the new sky is more spooky, isn't it? To much color in the old one in my opinion.

Are some of the details unecessary?

EDIT:

More purple vs. less purple, which is better?
