What's with the new preview? Haha.


Brod (Level 1 Intern) at 6/19/2009 1:53:44 PM

lol I had so much fun pasting this into paint and just swapping colors to see the changes. Incredible stuff man, epic job.


AlexWeldon (Level 1 Rookie) at 6/17/2009 3:47:30 PM

iSTVAN (Level 8 Cannibal) at 5/11/2009 12:59:00 AM

I saw this in the forum. I was really impressed by the concept, particularly. Nice work, Jalonso! I particularly like the rat.


Scribblette (Level 1 Intern) at 5/11/2009 12:49:27 AM

Am NOT surprised by this winning first place. Fantastic interpretation of Bosch.

SO cool !!!!!!!


DanielHyaku (Level 1 Thug) at 5/5/2009 4:14:48 PM

Insane.

PERIOD.


Riva (Level 5 Captain) at 5/5/2009 9:38:00 AM

When GB stroke my country was still actualy behind Iron curtain so I dont know: are there actually any existing games for GB with this level of graphic awesomness ?
(or would it be even possible, considering memory, sprite and cartridge limitations etc ?)


grim666 (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/4/2009 5:27:26 AM

wow

 


Chace (Level 5 Captain) at 5/4/2009 4:52:25 AM

Wow, amazing. You got my vote.

Club Beuker (Level 5 Detective) at 5/4/2009 12:13:02 AM

I... would... friggin'... play... this... till... the... bitter... end...

Give!!!


KaLanGO (Level 2 Dealer) at 5/3/2009 9:16:04 PM

realy nice indeed, realy loved the style and exceptional detailing, 5!


ryumaru (Level 3 Private Eye) at 5/3/2009 6:35:24 PM

 Absolutely beautiful.  4 colors and 160x144 just doesn't get much better than this.


jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/3/2009 11:49:37 AM

Oh, I see

Well, this is cool with me. I actually made a real tileset to work with and honestly the paintings pretty much tell you what is needed and all characters are there with many to spare. I could have made 20 screens, one for each year.

TBH, this was weirdly easy because the ref material did all the thinking for me, the paintings already DO look like RPGs.

I can't program anything but will help you make such a game...especially if its a small mini quest.

* Thx all. With special thanks to Adarias for the great compliment.


Jompe71 (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/3/2009 10:16:27 AM

Quote Flarfy: "(Psst... I think Jompe71 is trying to tell you you should make it into a real game)"

That's a big 10-4. Too bad I'm afraid to tell him I wanna code it/work with this dude, hehe...

Quote Flarfy again: "I smell win!"

That smell has also penerated my window, the art is freaking awesome! 


BusT3D (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/3/2009 10:01:24 AM

Ghehe nice, Jeroen Bosch ftw!


Fenne (Level 3 Hatchikyu) at 5/3/2009 5:40:53 AM

That looks so extremely nice!
That you can make it this detailed with only 4 colors, lovely!


Flarfy (Level 5 Detective) at 5/3/2009 12:33:26 AM

This is so freakin' awesome! I smell win!

(Psst... I think Jompe71 is trying to tell you you should make it into a real game)


Kaiseto (Level 6 Made) at 5/2/2009 2:52:11 PM

Dude... that's so awesome. The idea in itself is awesome, and it translates to gameboy format like... perfectly.


Jompe71 (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/2/2009 11:11:19 AM

Seeing something like this makes me angry!

...that I can't produce anything like this, how hard I try. Beeing as good as you are must be some kind of felony?

But as a contra attack I can program a game using the graphics.

But if you say that you can do so as well, I'll kill myself.

 


hotnikkelz (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/2/2009 11:09:34 AM

whoa extremely good, definitely got this one


Stratto (Level 4 Mercenary) at 5/2/2009 9:34:33 AM

GuiZ (Level 2 Kukyu) at 5/2/2009 6:14:36 AM

Labbe100 (Level 1 Thug) at 5/2/2009 6:11:00 AM

Jeremy (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 5/2/2009 1:21:01 AM

Front page in how many hours?

The water (?) in the second one doesn't really look like water. If it isn't meant to be, ignore me :D


SuperKirby (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 5/1/2009 11:30:19 PM

Looks like a real Gameboy game


006 (Level 2 Corporal) at 5/1/2009 10:45:56 PM

Adarias (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 5/1/2009 2:37:40 PM

Skull (Level 11 CEO) at 5/1/2009 2:21:11 PM

Amazing graphics - and such a cool little game idea.


Stickman (Level 5 Detective) at 5/1/2009 1:08:16 PM

Someone REALLY enjoyed this challenge:)

Middle right screen shot is my favourite. Excellent work Mr. Jal:)


jalonso (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/1/2009 12:55:28 PM

@dumbo, this would never happen! I do hope you don't think this is true.This challenge was in fact a bit of a last minute thrown together thing when several chatterbox comments last week were about a mockup challenge and then one Mod said its was GB 20th Aniv.

@ All others, thank you, especially DrD


dumbo (Level 10 Master Sniper) at 5/1/2009 12:48:30 PM

I think you've been working on this for months actually. Now that I look at it again. I'll bet you even came up with this challenge idea... HUH!!!

You sly bug, you!!!


skeddles (Level 11 Psychopath) at 5/1/2009 12:35:11 PM

Amazing idea and pixeling. I wish it was real.


Dr D (Level 1 Jukyu) at 5/1/2009 12:20:06 PM

3 awesome new screens! I love all of them.

And like I told you before, I'd play this so hard.

You've got my vote.

New rats look nice btw.


ThereIsNoCure (Level 11 Godfather) at 5/1/2009 12:19:16 PM

Jesus Christ, jal.


Reo (Level 11 Sensei) at 5/1/2009 11:19:07 AM

I love this!

Hieronymus Bosch's work has always fascinated me :D

 


blueleds (Level 1 Rookie) at 5/1/2009 11:03:50 AM

 Very detailed graphics :)

and interesting source of inspiration, different.


Jinn (Level 8 Guerrilla) at 5/1/2009 10:00:31 AM

{ Where can I buy it, Jal?


rehugun (Level 5 Sniper) at 5/1/2009 9:59:15 AM

Honestly I'd love to play this game.


Mykola (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 5/1/2009 9:36:27 AM

Hieronymus Bosch is my father's favourite painter :)


taquito143 (Level 5 Soldier) at 5/1/2009 9:32:55 AM

                   ...


Mathias (Level 2 Kukyu) at 5/1/2009 9:28:49 AM

Holy smokes! This is on it's own level. Goodluck other entrants, bahaha. You even used 'The Garden of Earthly Delights' as reference, noice!


Stratto (Level 4 Mercenary) at 5/1/2009 9:14:11 AM

There goes my chance of winning.

btw this is really good, I love how the rats look. they're perfect.

although the white hollow monster looks a bit weird in the leg area.


dumbo (Level 10 Master Sniper) at 5/1/2009 9:11:57 AM

This is my fav so far. Very well done indeed!


zi-double (Level 9 Necrophiliac) at 5/1/2009 9:00:14 AM

I think this is enough. I had good surprise when I see so many interesting details :)

always I'm envy for your productivity :)


greenraven (Level 8 Cannibal) at 5/1/2009 8:57:59 AM

Holy crap! Awesome!

If I didn't know any better I'd be asking where I can find a copy.


Squirrelsquid (Level 4 Shichikyu) at 5/1/2009 8:28:12 AM

Thats' awesomely sweet *_* kudos for the ultra effort to make 9 (!) screens :o
