I am not sure at all if i broke any rules but i had loads of fun doing this way past bedtime.

...STAARRRCRRRAAFFTT
i like it but i think you shoul add a bit more detail to the ground, some lights from the comand center, and just add little details here and there. you got the games look perfectly, imo ^^

I think right now the dither isn't helping as much as it could.....just makes it look messy at the moment--doesn't blend the background very much...though changing the colors seemed to help a bit.
There's a lot of other stuff, but I'm way too tired right now .

This is a really good game concept though....I hope you go through with it and make it

thanks ^^ ill see what  ican do. ive been trying to focus on making the enemy look better...but i think shifting to fixing the background would be better now that i thik about it

EDIT:okay, i went with a totally different background style...the other one looked too..noisy.

it was originally for the mockup frenzy...but skimming the rules was a bad choice on my part, and i missed that it had to be based on a newer game.
soooo
ill just post this here.
the only thing ive ever done with such a restricted pallete
and i like it.

c&c would be great ^^
oh...and i guess i should describe the game.
you are an archer whose main goal is to take down the enemies as you reach them along on the map.
you position your bow's angle(in multiples of 8, i.e. 8-16-24-3 ect.)you have limited arrows, you gain points based on number of arrows used and accuracy for each enemy you kill, theres a minimap...and thats it. hope you like it ^^ 4 colors.

uhh...the walking is...odd...
it almost looks like on the front view its a piece of paper being slightly twisted back, rather than a knee/leg going forward...
on the side view, its okay, but the legs look like its all one big bone or something. if you watch someone walk;they bring their knee up, and keep their feet at a reasonably similar angle when walking...atleast thats what ive seen. the coloring is okay although personally i think some hue shifts might be good...
with the grass...its..not very detailed, at all...
its one thing to make the character contrast in color depth luminosity or something like that, but it shouldnt be a difference in detail. you went from about...8 colors or so? (rough guess) to 3, and you only made dots for the grass, with shadows..if thats what theyre meant to be, o.o as far as readability goes i only knew it was grass because you said it was...
