Can't believe I forgot to upload this. :) Created this for a competition at deviant art, or rather the compo drove me to improve it heaps.

Really nice! Love the backdrop.

Wugabuga (Level 1 Rookie) @ 2/24/2014 08:36

I love the moon! but the shadow drop is wrong,

Stormacloak (Level 1 Depressed) @ 1/24/2014 11:08

I'll be awaiting this game.

Zizka (Level 10 Deep Blue) @ 5/6/2013 18:19

Now, that's a lot of points you got there. Holy.

peraxel7 (Level 1 Rookie) @ 2/25/2013 07:45

Looks like fun to play

mrduke (Level 3 Private Eye) @ 7/18/2012 01:30

Lovley! Reminds me of Ghost'n Goblins, but this is much better gfx!

Dont (Level 6 Garbage) @ 10/19/2011 13:30

i fell in love with the background.

Victor Rojo (Level 10 King Ghidorah) @ 8/24/2010 06:15

perfect, perfect, fav

Ixayou (Level 2 Corporal) @ 7/9/2010 11:26

Very nice. I would love to play that game :)

DawnBringer (Level 10 Pixel artist) @ 6/1/2010 08:25

Quite nice. Could use a little more vertical spacing between the text lines.

Arthurio (Level 1 Rookie) @ 8/29/2009 05:12

i Want to play it ! background is awesome :D

Irata (Level 1 Rookie) @ 4/2/2009 12:54

This reminds me of Ghost and Goblins. I love it.

Fuzion_Creative (Level 1 Gangster) @ 2/10/2009 18:26

Looks like a fun game. I don't really like the mountains though, maybe a more realistic look would be better.

RollerKingdom (Level 7 Mass Murderer) @ 1/16/2009 23:27

Nice decent work the water is just awesoome!!

Shrub (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/23/2008 13:58

Pretty decent work. It really has a Ghouls 'n' Ghosts feel to it.
Ahh, fond memories...

ruhtrA (Level 4 Murderer) @ 12/10/2007 00:23

Now there's a game I would like to play :)
10 digit score huh? play hard -> go pro
Also, nice work on the water/reflection of the moonlight especially

Varock Shade (Level 7 Underboss) @ 8/31/2007 13:17

woah... the water reflection... gotta like this one!

natano (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/29/2007 07:23

woow nice work good work

Yaniv (Level 1 Gangster) @ 12/15/2006 00:09

Very professional looking. I like it alot

dm404 (Level 5 Detective) @ 3/26/2006 01:31

Nice! Particularly reminds me of an SNES style game in particular. Mock up screenshots are my fave!

Faktablad (Level 6 SWAT) @ 8/30/2005 06:43

I don't see how you can just say "i don't like dark and gloomy trash". It's not like it's full of evil, brainwashing us or something. It's just a style, and disregarding good art just because you don't like "dark and gloomy" stuff seems like a waste.

Anyway....24 colors? I'm still trying to figure out how you could possibly get this much detail with 24 colors. I take my hat off to you.

truth (Level 1 Rookie) @ 8/13/2005 17:19

Hm I don't like dark and gloomy trash

Gold Yo (Level 1 Quiet One) @ 8/7/2005 20:23

Good lord, that's a lot of points. Oh, wait, you wanted me to comment on the actual picture? I love it. It's almost photorealistic, (save for the walking skeleton with a spear, and that monster-type thing. :P) yet it only uses 24 colors. This is something that nearly everyone can learn from to effetively use as few colors as possible, yet create a lush enviroment.

Monstara (Level 1 Rookie) @ 8/3/2005 00:06

Holy crap! Very nice.

Shoba (Level 1 Jukyu) @ 7/29/2005 01:21

Looks greate. The best part is that you managed to create it with 24 colors. Now all you need is a game around it ^_^.

Skit (Level 1 Depressed) @ 6/15/2005 10:42

Looks great!
Did you base this on an actual game or is this completely made up?

happip (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 6/3/2005 15:13

kawai! ill try to post some mockup too :D
i love it!

DArk (Level 1 Quiet One) @ 5/15/2005 03:38

I love this style. In the past I was playing games with that kind a graphics.There are so few games with that kind a graphics nowadays. If you want to make a game based on that kind a graphics, just write to me. I am a programmer, so I can help you ;)

OysterBoy (Level 1 Intern) @ 5/10/2005 00:44

Must...play...game. :) Great job!

finite (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 5/5/2005 03:15

You can't... it's just a mockup, I never created a game with these graphics.

animalation (Level 1 Rookie) @ 5/4/2005 12:45

neat game. how do you play it?

Niss (Level 4 Deputy) @ 4/29/2005 07:58

What can I say other than "This rocks"? Absolutely sweet graphics!

finite (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 3/3/2005 04:59

Yep, those are some issues I thought about a bit while I was making this. The way I think I'd fake it, should I make a game with these or similar graphics, would be to have the reflections on the same layer as the moon. The water and the reflections would be animated, and I'd simply draw that layer over the water. Sure it wouldn't be perfect, but the animation should mask the dodginess of the effect a little. ;)

Flammifer (Level 1 Rookie) @ 3/2/2005 18:02

Woohoo, that one's nice :)

(Hmm, I imagine it would be hard to actually make that one scroll nicely - either the background doesn't scroll (I'd expect the water to move a bit, at least), or the whole background scrolls together (the moon would look weird), or parts of the background scrol at different speeds (in which case it's hard to keep the reflection of the moon the way it is)

hurly burly man @ 3/1/2005 23:05

kickass

st0ven (Level 2 Dealer) @ 2/27/2005 19:56

hehe small and cute. The background water looks nice with the moon's reflection and such. definitely small... and definitely cute! :D

the_keller (Level 1 Rookie) @ 2/15/2005 17:15

This is prime rib 16 bit.

iSTVAN (Level 8 Cannibal) @ 2/15/2005 16:19

pretty sweeeet stuff here! The work shows off much skill. The moon and its reflection on the water is particularly nice. Although you art is great, i get the feeling the placement of character and backgrounds and stuff is a little un-inspired. I love the Score and Health bars though!

Im some ways it reminds me off a klik game I made for a halloween competition a couple of years ago. The graphics are dated, but I can see similarities. Check it out:

Again, top stuff

sedgemonkey (Level 11 Coelacanth) @ 2/15/2005 15:50

How could you forget this gem? This reminds me of one of the best sidescrollers ever -- Ghouls and Ghosts. The water, pathway and hills are superior work.

I love the shank and sword combo too. big smile
