The plain square menu item boxes and "pick a character" box are the only things letting this down.
While they succeed admirably at legibility, they really don't fit in with the colourful rounded cartoonishness of every other element, looking somewhat jarring.

should i make them rounded..or..add more detail to them etc? I jut have them as plain boxes b/c i felt making them too detailed would just blend it in too much with whats behind it

EDIT://

I do believe I'm finished :)

Theres probably still some things that could be fixed, but i'm kinda tired of looking at it right now and i've got some other stuff i need to work on haha.

I havnt put the new neck with the old feet yet i forgot to do that haha. I'll give it a try and see how it looks.

I would love to make a game but i sadly do not code ^^;. I've been approached by a gaming company before but their style was...so much different than mine that i didnt think i could do it.

Oh and o_o...LOL uhh no it was just a name i made up and slapped in there to give it a more authentic look XD


EDIT://



i cannot for the life of me think of a way to loop this thing >_<. help?

oh and i'm at 33 colours i think (should be anyways) and the limit is 64 so im doin pretty good there i'd say :D *pats self on back*

first thing i see that needs some adjustment is the roof palette and the dithering.

The palette seems to be lopsided. Your brightest colour is only a little bit brighter/lighter than the next one down but the contrast between the other colours is pretty high.

Your dithering looks to be a bit messy. You've got random pixels and really jagged edges in it. You may want to either clean it up or just dump it (i suggest this) and just use more colours.

First of all, I think it's off balance. Centering the neck and head more makes the pose less dynamic, but I don't think you have much of a choice with tiny legs and feet close together. It would either need bigger feet or longer legs.


you're right it's a bit off balance haha. I've moved the head to the right a few pixels and added in bigger feet

I didn't think the brown you're using as an outline works very well. I'd use solid purple for the parts in shadow and the darkest color from the animal on the brighter parts. Mixing two contrasting colors like that just makes it look muddled.

hmm..well the brown was used in order to keep colour count down. It was taken form the frog and is also used on the flamingo. I'm not sure what you mean by contrasting colours haha. On my screen they look find x__x;. I'm pretty sure my colours are okay too as i've checked calibration before and it was okay. The colour you used in the edit i think is just too light aswell. If I can find another colour that i'm already using somewhere that will work better I'll do it though :)

I experimented with the limbs a bit and tried to keep the tiny legs while giving them some more "filling" rather than being mostly just outlines.

The arm around the dryer looks weird. It's not really holding it, just placed on top of it.
I think it's just that its so small that it looks like that.  hopefully i've remedies the issue

The highlights on the head are pure white without the buffer shade you're using on the stomach. There's also a shade of orange you're not using elsewhere around the mouth.

ooops haha the lack of buffer on the head highlight was just me forgetting to do it haha. I'll fix that next update

Their hands and feet are tiny. I think their limbs might get lost in any details on the ground, so I'd make them a bit easier to see, and I think the dryer should be bigger since it's an important item (more than the bow) and the frog's hammer is much bigger. Also, the tent in the title screen looks a bit flat. Try darkening the sides so that it'll look more cylindrical. The top looks nice, though. :)

Yeah I agree the the dryer is a bit small haha I'll try and size it up some more. I'm not too too worried about their limbs being small..it's just kind of the chibi style i was going for i guess. I'll try giving one of them bigger limbs and see if i like it though :)

Oh and you're right, i've fixed the tent now haha (not uploaded tho)

The inside of the tent doesn't read as the inside of a tent.  I thought I was seeing through it into space, since space is the same color.

any suggestions on how to make that look better?
