stop triple quadruple posting on people's work. if you want to discuss something with the artist, send them a private message, do not spam their art with a string of senseless comments. and if you really have something to say about the piece itself, then edit your posts rather than double and triple posting. however, your personal requests (spoiler alert: pro pixellers usually don't spend their valuable time making sprites for 13 year olds) belong in private messages and not on the comment sections of people's work- this is a gallery. If you choose to respond to this message, do so via pm.

Most Epic Game (mock up) EVAR!!!!

crisis (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/13/2009 7:28:59 AM

Oh my heavens. This is awesome! I especially love the brown pillars.
I'm assuming you also love to do game scenes :)
Anyway. I really like it but there are a few things I would change:
1. The health bar / stars collected thing - I think it looks a little weird having the bird's head just cut off there. Maybe a little border?
2. Background is a little blah - I don't know if that's what you're going for, though, having never played a classic GameBoy ^^ The greed rounded hill things look a little pixelly at the top - you and everyone else is probably going 'Duh - it's pixel art' - but it throws me off. Maybe remove the top border, or make it lighter?
3. Last, I promise! The water in the foreground - also kind of blah. Again, I don't know if that's what you wanted, but it's not working for me.
Anyway. Would totally buy this game ^^

Those 'hills' in the back could blend better, imo. Maybe if you made them more blue and a tad brighter.
Love how the bad guys all have the same eyes.

user
DJD (Level 4 Button Man) at 4/6/2008 9:18:28 AM
eh, it's still an awesome improvement over the previous (which was already awesome) but I can't help but feel like this is just a trickled-down version of what it -should- be; ie, the photoshopped background which I think goes much better with the graphics than this seemingly tagged on one. I like the tan cloud bubbles but I can't help but feel the green hills and the zaggy sky is there not for the purpose of creating the scene but strictly so it can be accepted.

It's not really something you can help, I just wish people didn't freak out over admitted NPA when that's the way it should be. Art shouldn't be sacrificed for the unbending sake of purism.

user
Farbanian (Level 1 Rookie) at 4/6/2008 7:50:24 AM
Hey, I'm planning to make a game kind of like this. Are you interested?!! I imagine you do not know HOW to make a game, I do not know as well, I have a friend over at dA (deviantArt) and he's made 2 games for me, well, we've done it, I do the pixel part, and he does the rest. What do you think?!! He offered kind of a pkmn game. I don't know. Just tell me what you think, you pixel very well as well. Oh!! Here are the links to the 2 games I've done in collab with him: http://farbanian.deviantart.com/art/Memory-Game-80061088 http://farbanian.deviantart.com/art/The-StarCatching-Game-65396185 ©Farbanian.

user
Vertigo-Zero (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 4/5/2008 1:03:41 PM
I think you are right Jal, if it wasnt Ken's it'd be rejected. Why, because it happened to me when I was new here:
http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/16900.htm But its fixed now so im not complaining :D

Great work as always Ken!

Nice one, is theire allready some concept behind it ?
If you are talented pixelpusher who is desperately
in search of a programmer (Win,Mobile,Flash) to
make the gfx come alive in a game, im a programmer
who is desperately in search of pixelpushers who would
like to collaborate on any kind of game-project.

Indigo (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 8/4/2006 9:35:59 AM
haha!  You seem to get the same gripe that i do, kenneth!  Not sure if your've seen it yet, but I did a style study on you a couple days ago and i've been getting alot of  "this should die because the sky isn't pixelled" in the pixeljoint forum.  Glad to see i'm not alone.

here are the threads:

Carnivac (Level 8 Shodan) at 7/24/2006 5:19:24 AM
Just to clarify I do appreciate this kind of style... it's just not my thing anymore. 

user
Carnivac (Level 8 Shodan) at 7/24/2006 4:47:39 AM
I dunno.  This does nothing for me at all.  It all just looks far too basic and simple and I know that's part of your style but I'm starting to feel like it's all looking sorta unfinished and rushed.  Maybe my tastes are just changing and this simple japanese looking stuff just doesn't appeal to me anymore.  It's technically well done I guess.

user
Huggkruka (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/23/2006 10:52:07 AM
I would play it. :D

user
Akira (Level 5 Sniper) at 7/21/2006 10:07:21 PM
the sky looks magnificant and soft. just because it isn't pixel art doesn't mean you can't like it. great sprite work. you should be making games.

user
NobleClock (Level 2 Corporal) at 7/21/2006 7:06:31 AM
hey, wait a sec... maybe this is pixel art, i mean, slays lines are worse and people argue about that, but in the end everyone says, he must just be a very good pixel art detailer, maybe he just took time. The comment box isn't meant for bickering about shit, it's meant to make the piece of art BETTER!

user
Kennethfejer (Level 1 Jukyu) at 7/20/2006 4:21:53 AM
meh. its not a gradient, but a painting of clouds.
kirby GBA has the same type of backgrounds, so i really dont see a problem with it.
but i guess a matter of taste.

user
HMC (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 7/19/2006 7:47:44 PM
Ignoring the gradientage, this is a nice piece. Though, I think those pink things in the background should sort of fade into the background more to imply distance.

user
HawkTheSlayer (Level 4 Button Man) at 7/19/2006 10:25:03 AM

As stated it is a mockup screen for a GBA game idea, lets not forget that real GBA games use manipulated bitmaps from Photoshop or other art packages as backgrounds and even intro screens sometimes, though usually with some colour reduction, so I really do not see the problem here.

The rest of the scene is all hand pixelled and if I may say, Pixelled very well indeed.

In conclusion, maybe Kennethfejer should have submitted the sprite pixels for the characters seperately, but for the sake of a mockup scene I think that the sky adds to the realism of the whole piece, it just needs the ammount of colours used reduced a little bit.


user
David Stoner (Level 1 Rookie) at 7/19/2006 1:36:25 AM
O em gee, take this down! The background is obviously not pixel art and so it should not be on this site! Even if the vast majority of this is hand-pixeled the fact that you would sink so low as to use a gradient means that it doesn't deserve to be showcased at this pixel art site. Seriously, what were you thinking?

I like the effect you put on the trees, but it seems sort of out of place in comparison with the rest of the scene.

user
Blick (Level 6 Commander) at 7/19/2006 1:06:34 AM
Too bad you can't prove that, jalonso. Since it is Kenneth's. We may never know. It'd be lame to remove it based on an assumed technicality.

Anyway, I really like this, your simplistic style has always appealed to me. I love how functional your mockups look. The bottom status bar showing what I assume to be the progress through the level is what really sealed the deal for me as far as it looking like a true game. I still wish you'd made a real Kid Icarus fangame from those mockups a while back.

[QUOTE] -DE- I for one don't care about the background (if GBA/DS allows for high-color bitmaps, then why not?) [/QUOTE]
Because this site is about Pixel art.

Not directed at -DE-. If this was not Ken's, it would have been flamed to death, if it even made it to the gallery in the first place. Fair is fair.

Looks like a cross between Kirby and Yoshi's Story. I love the style, very nice work.

user
-DE- (Level 9 Executioner) at 7/18/2006 1:33:55 PM
I for one don't care about the background (if GBA/DS allows for high-color bitmaps, then why not?). The rest is great.
There are some parts in the outlines I don't like (esp. the darker line on one of the hills in the far back, near the signpost), but I guess it's a part of your style and it'd be hard to adjust it.
More mockups, people, and less Amiga-scene crap. Thank you.

user
chanfan (Level 7 Underboss) at 7/18/2006 12:43:40 PM

I'd play it. Nothing wrong with the photoshopped background either in my opinion.

user
MichaS (Level 1 Depressed) at 7/18/2006 9:43:19 AM
But sweet. I do not like such colors but there is beautiful.  Has it what sky colors so much ? Did not make you probably,? Please,  it repair.
