Yeah. the grass-ish stuff is just 5 tiles flipped around and so-on, zombie sprite is using 16 colors, I think I'll add a background and another sprite and call it finished. Problem is I totally fail at backgrounds :(

TEH UPDAT

	Would love to see a "classic" background. A moon, a kind of dead tree and some graves :) But maybe some original stuff would be cool too ! Anyway, very good job ! Oh, and I love your avatar Edited by Okko
	One day I will find a great, cool, funny and original signature. One day.

	Looks good but how can the main player be a fighter ship if player is already a zomby? Surly this won't work.

	Perhaps this is the scene where the zombies come to earth, so the brave SHUMP pilot runs to his ship and flys off to later blow up the planet with his high powered rockets.

	I messed with the colors abit, I'd like to add more detail to the land, but I'm really not sure how.

	because of the overall darkness of everything, I needed the sprites to stand out.

	i really love those sprites, if you submitted them to the gallery i would fav them. As it happens your making a whole scene which is sorta letting them down. The floors tiles and bit of background your have made are ok, but the trees really ruin it for me, there too repetitive and un-tree like. Kutgw i just feel these awesome sprites deserve scenery of their calibur . Edited by Shark

	It's funny you'd say that about the sprites, both of them were just quickies I did to add to the scene :p. I think I spent about a half hour on each and then let them go. I'm aware the trees are quite suck atm, and going to be adding alot of variation to everything, but not now, I have school sh*t to take care of :(

	It's really looking nicer, but I'd move the trees down. They wouldn't be up that high. We could have a bit more sky in there. You do sprites really well, actually. I'm surprised they were made so quickly. I still think a bit more detail on the land the zombie's walking on. Maybe some random indents? Or turn the top green part into grass over stone?

	I'd remove the outlines from the sprites. If you need them to stand out, maybe try changing their colors(like: up the saturation or changing the lightness). Havent tested that though, so it's just an idea.
