Hey there,
I submitted a piece from a game I'm doing, and it came back with the following (cryptic) message: "REASON: We're sorry to inform you that your submission does not meet our quality standards or the art needs revision for some miscellaneous reason." So here it is, posted to the WIP section as recommended. I would love some feedback as to why it wasn't accepted.

I believe the only problem is that the way you saved or upscaled your image, blurred your pixels making it "technically" not pixel art, also the gradient at the bottom of the door wouldnt be allowed. Besides that should be fine.
I'm not the voice of authority though, so their may be a few more things that need tidying up. |

As mentioned by Mr.F. The gallery is for pixelart and you have some CG gradients in the piece. Scaling art in PJ is not needed as we have a zoom feature but its not a reason to reject any art.
As far as the art is concerned, imo, the size of the skulls look too small for the player sprite and nothing in this screen indicates these are little people so it reads off. ------------- |
