Hi everybody!

 Well, as most of you know, I've been workin' on a gba project for the last year and a half. Today, we finaly have a decent website and some good content to show!

 So, I come before you seeking some advices and comments on the overall look of the game and the website. This is my first game and pixel art project and all the comments are appreciated!

 As far as credits go, There's 1 guy coding the game, another coder that designs and manages the project, one doing the artwork and the design (that's me), one doing the music and a couple of other guys that drops in and out to lay a couple of sprites or advices (Kenneth Fejer for example).

Well, enough chit chat, time to act!

Voilą!
Thanks for your time!

Its looking very nice. Next time however, save your images as a gif so it isn't spoiled.

The website looks nice, but i'd get a pixelly border in there. I'm not so keen on the text and symbol on the banner though, i dont know what to suggest. Personally i would have done that in pixels, perhaps a bike in the centre of it or around the text... Also, it'd be nice to have some more icons around the site as it seems a bit plain, especially with the clinical blue colour scheme.

Hey guys!

Larwick: Thanks for the comment. Indeed, the images should've been gifs or pngs, but the guy who made the screenshots sent them in as jpegs :( Oh well, always next time ;) I agree, the web site is kinda plain. Maybe I'll add some special artwork on the layout to make it less boring. Thanks alot for the advices!

Souly: Thanks alot! Yup, the mx guy is part of the game.

Thanks again! If anybody's got something to say, don't be shy! ;)

Also the bike and fire look great, the only thing that looks weird on that is that the back wheel doesn't look attached at all.
