That is quite snazzy,great atmoshere.

well done

 

Killer! really good atmosphere!

Holy Mary Magdaline! That is friggin awesome! Can barely tell it's pixelwork! Those flames are killer too!

Sokota

Absolutly awesome. This is in the top ten of the best pixel art pieces I've ever seen.

it's truly incredible!

Woah, awesome!

Looks good. With your suggested additions it'll be really realistic.

Awesome. But I have a feeling that if you put a bit more animation to it, it would be FANTASTICC.
Like Award-Winning FANTASTIC.

lovelllllly! Great atmostphere and I love the torch flame animation. It loops really well.

How can this not be what you wanted? This is AWESOME!

cool looks like a sprited version of fable

I love the detail on the trees.

When i saw this first time, I found myself watching it for few minutes. This is a marvelous masterpiece. Can I marry it?

great shading, and awesome colors. gz!

It's about time, man I love this. Thanks Buloght.

Oh it's beautiful ! Great work ! ++

Great jonb on firs man! You deserve it

awesome, enough said :)

Angles and lights are great. If you really want to go crazy make the background flicker with the torches! Just kidding, this piece doesn't get much better.

This is really amazing

He never said it was 12 colors. Only 12 frames

Still nice piece overall. I'd be surprised if this didn't get one of the top pixels of the month.

Wow.

very, very interesting....

Great choice of colors. For 12 colors, this is amazing. You did a great job.

Oooh, lovely, makes me want to point & click:)

GREAT!!!!!!.......

Awesome background, buloght! You've out done yourself. Great sense of atmosphere here. I love it.

The atmosphere is perfect!

5/5

wow, that's some impressive dithering

not too certain about the greenish tint of the light/flames on the other hand (may be the monitor though)

wow, I'd love to work on an adventure game with you some time.

*speechless*

Nice scene, especially the atmosphere it conveys.

Extraordinary!!

1 word: amazinglyawesomecoolness.

exelent love the mood it radiates

Excellent atmosphere!

Totally magnificent!

As to the flatness, I imagine as a background it's perfect.  You wouldn't want the background competing wiht the foreground elements anyway.  This is an unbelievable piece.

very nice :)fantastic

Great!
Only thing I don't like is that two big trees have their tops coloured differently. I understand they are supposed to fog away, but I think you could have made the transition less abrupt between those brownish and greenish colors.

FAVd!

darkshire ^^°!

Reminds me of Monkey Island 2 which i think is a good thing :)

A superb peice 5/5
looks great

thats all I can say.

I don't deny anything :D No, seriously I know about the flatness, was still gonna make them (the one tree in particular) more rounder, but I am just too lazy to add another pixel to this and its already three months old. Weeeh.

stickman: Yes, a pointy clicky adventure about barbarians.

Thanks for the comments :D

fantastic work!

Oi! I never said it was a bad thing... just pointing it out. :P

Great work! The pencily sketchy feel of the trees suit the scene perfectly. Is this for a point and click adventure?

This is just AMAZING !!! Great anim and details ! There's life in there ! Great work ! Fav and 5/5.

Are you kidding me. This is epic. *Jawdrop*

This has skill all over it...

Wonderful work indeed!!!

I find the flatness the unique aspect for this scene. I see lots of 1930s-1940s Disney quality in this unique approach to the flatness. I think Lar needs to look at it again from another angle : /

This is amazing! there is a certain quality to it that makes it special, it's hard to describe, it has a hand-drawn look to it, kind of like the backgrounds for Monkey Island 2 (Which really was hand drawn.) Excellent work.

wow! scene of the year in my books! With Larwick mentioning that the trees "seem a bit flat" - I think it helps give a bit of cartoonish realism to this scene, which is what I think you were going for. It's too bad you can't use this for your game.

Those animations are fantastic. Brilliant scene. Some of your trees seem a little flat to me. But lovely work.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone :)

varock_shade (and others who mentioned this): I agree, I still had to do that (but room will no longer be used), I did have it so initially, but I hadn't come round to it once I upgraded the fire animation, as some would know who saw the thread.

tomic: the feeling is mutual :D

inkspot: yeah, I had a hard time at the river and since I wasn't going to use it anymore my meeting with the river animation would have to wait for another day. I did have a few go's, but failing ones :). There are a lot of things that isn't correct for the game, and design wise too I messed up a little not for what I had in mind initially, happens when I don't do enough design sketches.

josiah: The river is left blankish since I haven't done the animation haha :(

Thanks again all!

Wow, this is superb. A still image would have been excellent, but those animated torch flames make it fantastic. Faved!

Beautiful. Needs some light flicker on the trees near the torches though. As is the torches don't look like part of the scene.

I remember when I made this.

The fire's awesome.

Haha, poor buloght couldn't manage the flowoing river :D
