[PPP] Ocean's stuff


Icons.

Tiles.

The tileset is still being worked on, but the additions will be placed under the green line and I will report that after the first round of judging.
 
Thank you!

Now for some tiles.

*Updated on first post*

I got sleepy when working on the brick building so that's incomplete. I want to add roads, streetlights, and other things so it looks more modern. I was using the breeze style as a reference. I have to test them all out together to make sure it all fits in well. I know the grass isn't the same color, so that would have to be a replacement thing, though I do have the dirt auto-tiles and stuff in there in case you want to use the original grass.
 
Looking pretty good, Ocean. I'm detecting a strong hint of Doppleganger's style there. He's a damn good pixel artists, so I can't think of anyone better to learn off. I'd say that your grass work and other ground tiles is far superior to your plants and general objects though. I have a sneaking feeling that if you put those plants over the grass, they'll barely stand out. What I recommend instead of that for plant leaves and stuff, you use dark greens, so they are clear, crisp and identifiable when placed over your various grass tiles.
 
Very nice indeed, very bright and warm. I agree with Inq on the plants, you might wanna try darkening them a bit, so they stand out.


Icons are great!

Very nice indeed. There arn't many decent icons out there, aside from the xp and vx icons, and yours are definitely different enough to be quite original.

Nice.
 
Ah, thank you very much! OK, I will darken the plant outlines and make them stand out more. Anyone have suggestions for what icons I could add? I was thinking of what else to put but I didn't know what to add. I was thinking of stuff you'd find in a modern/slightly futuristic/First person shooter type of setting. Sunglasses and Binoculars are on my list so far, but I dunno what else.
 
No no. Don't just darken the outlines, I mean the whole leaves, stems and all. Otherwise the plants just won't stand out over the bright green grass.
 
Watch
Gloves
Ammunition
Compass
Digital clock/radio
Pack of cigarettes
Helmet/mask maybe from a motorbike?



Any of those things, I'd probably use in my game.
 
Thanks!

I just added 11 icons and fixed up the plants in the tileset a bit, they're on the previous 2 posts. I'll resume working on this tomorrow.
 
Wow, this stuff is really cute!

The palettes that you use are sometimes strange, however. The windows and the outlines of some of the objects have contrast that is increased a little too much; they stand out too much against everything else.

The streetlamps look like they're sideview.

The texture on the asphalt is actually really creative and interesting. I feel like the lines in the lane dividers could be longer, though. And on a 4-way crossing there would have to be a stop sign of some sort! :eek:

Lastly, I feel like the sidewalk has too obvious of a repeat-tiling pattern. You could probably change that up with multiple sidewalk patterns.

Good job :3
 
Thank you! That's very helpful actually, I hadn't thought of some of that.

Also, I had completely forgotten about stop signs. I'll start working on some of these tomorrow.
 

Thank you for viewing
