Ground tiles should be the same size as the grass tiles...  And the colors too bright...  If these filled an entire screen would burn your retinas

Thats what pillowshaded basically is, just try and shade with 1 pixel per 2:1 line, instead of 2 pixels.

I think, they kinda match the original level and colours, but you need to make the spikes more shiny, and know that there are 4 per tile, not 1 (4x4 in your case) the logs are okay, but they need more to connect them to the land, and ropes on them to connect to each other... and a bit of slack. The grass tiles need to have that Sonic grass texture, and how you're going to do the siffrent slopes is beyond me... the water needs more lights and darks to make it look like the rapids in the game, I would suggest getting a rip of the entire level and going from there

Here is what I see wrong so far... 

The grass doesn't match the actual used.  You have blades, and sonic uses vertical patterns

Your logs look less like the sonic ones, they need to be more 3d on the ends.

Instead of having 2 different color blocks, you need on 1 block with both colors on it.

And if you are doing this in all ISO game style, you need everything to fit into a specific grid, Pick one size and stick to it, right now the log is an odd size compared to everything else:

What you've done is just padded the outline of the tile, rather than aa which I imagine you thought you did. It comes off as pillowshaded and makes the lines too thick and I would just suggest getting rid of those lines that "smooth it out" altogether.

This is why no one likes you.
Try taking some C&C into consideration you douche.

How do you expect to get any better if you think that each and every peice you do is perfect.
Obviously it isn't.

OR instead of replying with what you did flame, you could have summed it all up with this:

"Thanks for your crits, can you please elaborate?"

@Mistah flammeh: Nobody said "suck". I said they were cones, and that needed to be fixed. You could have told us they were supposed to be spikes.

doesnt remember of sonic , water is indeed boring since at least sonic had little waves and sun reflection , grass was hiper texture since it was TALL grass and  logs were made of wood




I know! Leafs shouldn't make shadow...
