Awesome ^^
-I'll check Secret of Mana
-Is the lighter brown a big problem? I did this with everything in the game: the right side always has a one-line highlight, looked like a cool style
-The curtains do suck indeed :/
-I'll try to redo the lamps
-The background is just a picture from internet, and since I saved the final mock-up as .gif, it messed up XD
-The thinner streams ARE resized XD Were just to try it out. The broadest stream to the left also sucks, looks too blocky.
-The plants, would they need to be a bit/way darker?
-The dithering on the face was because the character never shows his eyes. NEVER. I used a black shading there, and tried to make it a bit smoother with dithering.
-I'll also recolor the darker/lighter tilelayers. I just poorly shifted their hues :/ Lazy ^^
Also: I love that font too ^^
EDIT: How could I fit blue/purple in the roof ? :/ I tried it, it just messes up
