	I think they're too dark... that dirt is way too dark... lighten them up ;) you can make that horizon look let's flat.. mybe use a gradient or something... by the way... the tiles are the background, fishes andc louds are sprites... that go over the tiles...

	most of the time they are sprites... and if he's going to animate they should be sprites for an easier work.. i've enver seen tiles like that... clouds maybe no but fishes yes...

	i don't see where he says that fishes or any tile will be animated. most of the time? unless they are not bg. Background = tile/Sprite=element. but of course we're not speaking of rules, gabo.

	Okay, i took your advice and lightened the dirt. I also have added some more parts to the tileset. I like the simplicity of the buildings, but not sure if it fits with the detail of the land, let me hear your thoughts anyway. I also decided to increase the size of the tiles from 16x16 to 32x32.

I looked at the one in your profile and i think its just too detailed for this piece. I'm quite happy as it is, but i may change the texture. Any idea's on what else to add to it. I'm going to do animations for the fish just for this piece to add to the gallery, as well as keeping it for a platformer tileset. I'll also try and get some sort of villians/monsters and the main hero in there. Then maybe add in a couple health bars and weapon bars.

	What's with the mixed pixel sizes? The HUD and spikes looks very out of place because they're at normal size while the rest is at 2x.

	hat 2x thing is kinda bothering me... but if you want it like that.. it's ok.. for your pixel skills i think that it would be easier if you made it at 1x..., can we see a 1x version plz?
