Crystal Legends: Book One

Those are some decent attempts.  Although your beach map is extremely repetitive-You need to cut down on the amount of grass on the top of your cliffs.. You also need to add more rock variation,  there way to cluttered up and it would seem unnatural that one type of rock would be on the sand and the other the water. And speaking of those rocks, they look ugly placed on top of the water.

Ah ok, i thought that map looked funny, anyway i changed it:
I decided to clear out the bottom left, since you will hardly see it. As for the rocks on the water... they stay unless i find better rocks.

Also, more screens:
My attempt on a forest map. (don't mind the pink areas, it looks fine in-game)

Some caves somewhere outside of town.

The top wall on the cave where it goes down into the crack looks odd with the lighting. Perhaps you should use the shadowed wall to remedy this. Nice maps though.

it's been a while since i updated, so here's the deal:
(i have no internet at home so i'm using my friend's pc)

i havent been working on the game that much lately (only made like 3 more maps), i am however doing some artwork for the game (i can't upload any atm but i will once i have internet at home).
i'm also planning out the story (i've been making maps and events as i went), so hopefully that'll keep me from getting too disorganized or adding too much stuff to a single chapter.
also i would like some feedback on the things that havent been said, like:

-main characters: they will stay, and no i'm not using basil as one of my main characters. (i was going to download lucid awakening but the net cut off before i had a chance to do it, either way you wont see him in this game, at least not as an important character.)
-other characters: there will be no less than 13 characters.
-features (updated)

about the artwork: i'm making face graphics and in-game drawings (i have an example but i cant upload any pictures atm)

please leave some feedback, i will upload the artwork when i have net back at home.

the project is currently on hold.
ill add a new sectioned called CL lore (basically contains some back story of the game) sometime next week.
 
The name already kills me

Legends, is very very common name

Crystal, OMG

Cecil:OMG CRYSTALZ LETZ COLLECTZ THEMZ!

No seriously, you name is BAD,
also, I don't want to talk about how Cliche this is because I don't wanna beat a dead horse.

And yeah I have to agree with that guy, when I saw the Four Nations thing I was like:
Avatar must be the hero of this game.
