CFP- Finished Graphics

It's most likely the fact that, unlike all the sprites so far, Tanoomba doesn't use extreme colors. Instead of going from red to blue, or bright purple to black, he goes from tan to light tan. It's in style, it's just not as dynamic in terms of color.

Well if the color shadings aren't as dynamic as others, wouldn't that be out of style since the other sprites have the shading specialty but this doesn't? Plus it looks too flat and papery with the little contrast/shading which makes it more out of style.

Well, sorry, it is in style in terms of color, it just use lighter colors.

And when I said that it used less dynamic, I'm not saying that it's part of the style, I'm saying that they use dynamic colors because that's the colors they have officially. His colors are lighter in the M&L series as well.

As for the shading, I can try to add more, but honestly, it looks a doughy.


If you look at the actual sprites from PiT, you will notice that their faces are rather smooth and as such an almost flat look.

It's just the Tanoomba's skin color is what he's saying. They're all brown, so yeah.

But it could use a touch more contrast.

Yeah, if you look at the PiT sheet of them (as I just did), you will see that Tanoombas have smooth faces. No cheeks, no bumps, no lumps, therefore, no extra shading on the face, thank you and goodnight.

Temporary item icons unless someone else wants to make them.

Awesome, SGG, do you mind if I slightly edit the background though?
Since the layout will be "items: 4*3, used items: 1*3, important items: 5*1

I'll handle that, I think I can work with what you made so far

looks pillowed

not saying it is but it looks so

but it's definitely in style

(I don't really like the style though)

That was my point. The shading is staying as is on the original cuz;
1. Thats how they are.
2. Trying to add extra shading looks bad.

Hopefully this will do for the Demo. The large thing at the bottom is for the DSe chat function. I'll probably redo it after the demo.

looks good

Lockey
(lock+key=lockey, also a pun of Pokey)

Lockey is the guard of secret exits. You'll know he's nearby when you hear a slight clacking sound.

reminds me of okami.

might that have been the inspiration?

cool

Somewhat. The main inspiration was Toothy, the tooth Pokey from M&L3. I liked the idea of a living enemy made from an inanimate object, and I then noticed that the shape of a keyhole could work for a Pokey's eyes.

awesome

great idea too

Also a pun of lackey?

I don't know, I just needed something to add to the generic "this is awesome" post.

cool shrooms sgg

Hey guys I suck at backgrounds!


Also I left a green pixel line on the left and top
