Thought I'd post the ref I have stored away!
this one is from random GB games, I LOVE to tweak the colors in my GB emulators, so I went and made this compilation of diferent styles of shading in great GB games. some screens are therefore doctored to be more useful for that purpose.
I thought I'd do the same with Trip World since it looks so nice, next thing I knew I had practically made a screenshot recopilation of the whole game! there really is a clever tile use going on almost every other screen, so I went and grabbed all that!...ok I accept it, I grabbed more than I had to c.c
Game is really weird, most enemies dont really attack you, they just...annoy you....get inbetween you and your path...and you may kill em or not. Most dont even fight back when you kick their asses....only real fights are the bosses, the final boss is turning out quite hard! (still havent beat him)
The colors of the sprites are subtly diferent from the BG so that the diferentiation isnt lost....They're a combination of my memory of GB and interwebz photos
