Sprite Competition #90: 16 colours?

Congrats to bEEtle for winning again, and the rest who participated. It was a very good comp and it'll be difficult to beat... but lets try anyway.

Wasn't sure what to do as a subject for the next sprite comp... I wanted to make something more original than a "Draw this character" comp, but wasn't sure what to do. Already screwed up the Mario Galaxy and suit ideas, so I came across this.

You may know that recently I came across "Dangerous Dave in copyright infringement", where the first level of SMB3 had been replicated in CGA graphics. Looked cool considering, and it would have been a lot better if it had been finished. Now here's your chance... sorta.

My entry for the last comp was NSMB in gameboy style. You have to do a similar thing but with a wider pallette and it doesn't have to be NSMB. It can be any Mario game or an entirely new one - totally up to you. No edits though, that's the golden rule for this comp to work. It doesn't have to be a complete screen of a game - it can be just simple sprites, but bare in mind that the more you make, the merrier. Try and keep it a 2D platformer, since that was one of the selling points to CGA graphics, once they'd figured out scrolling.

Here's your 'amazing' pallette:

and if you think it's impossible to make a decent game out of it, then you obviously haven't played Commander Keen or Duke Nukum.

Voting starts in a weeks(?) time, which is the 21st two weeks time, which is the 28th. Now hop-to-it! And if this competition really is hated feel free to give ideas for a replacement.

Sounds good, if this only gets as many entries as the last one, too bad I won't enter.

Must enter this!

Much like the last comp, it's a great idea, but I probably won't be able to come up with anything. I'd really like to enter this one, though.

Saounds good but I don't really get it: We can make a screenshot of a game like the last compo, just using those colors, right?

Or we can simply sprite something, right?

Oh I love limited palette sprites. Count me in.

Pixel art? I'll enter!

*enter*

I might enter this one (allready working on a sheet).

Ugh, If we were Only Restricted to 16 colors of our own choice, it'd be nice, but this is horrid...

Yes. There's not even any choice for skin color on there.

Here's my submission.

Super Goomba Bros.

I followed all of the rules and created a different, yet good sprite sheet. The pallette is the same and I even made animations.



If you would like to use this sheet, then you can.

(My entered sprite.)

Can I rehash sprites I JUST made?

Could you atleas at somesort of skin texture color?

So we're basicly just making custom sprites with your palette? I'm going to give this one a shot! Count me in!

Okay this is nowhere near done but I've got a few things done.

My attemp.

More later.

Uh heres mine hope you all like it

No offense, but... Edit. Lost my vote.

:o This compo ends on my birthday.
Perhaps I should enter this for the sake of it.
