hehe gave me a good chuckle when the cute little bear monkey rabbit thing suddenly went killer. I think the things that need most work are in the scenery, the ground tiles seem too repetitive and the trees seem somewhat jagged. I think the slash animation could be changed slightly but all in all a very good effort.

very nice work.  I clearly see some inspiration from both kenneth and paul robertson.  Charming indeed, but overall i think it's too....stiff...for the lack of a better term.

also, the contrast of the main character should probably match that of the bird creature.  It needs the extra pop in my oppinion.

Yeah, I also noticed the KF inspiration. Very cute :) I downloaded that Clickbeat game just for this, so when you complete it please post it!

Indigo: Stiff? Well, I'm no Paul Robertson..  ;D Thanks though.

Joel: Okay, will do. I'll just bump this thread when it's done, if the mods don't mind.

Everyone, thank you for commenting!

This latest background really seems to fit nicely. The first one was pretty nice as well, but the second one really didn't do it for me. I'm glad you've finally got one that works well, but still has some character. Like the character a lot as well.

Big improvement over the original mockup!
Though I think the background and foreground merge too easily, they need more distinction. More desaturation, different hues, or whatever.
