So being totally hooked on Red Dead Redemption lately.
I decided to try and pixel a 2d gameboy style platformer of RDR.
And well, I'm pretty pleased about the result so far.

But any tips are always welcome!



So far I have made this.
A jail and a bar/motel thingie.
The meters up top represent the Dead Eye meter, Health and your ammo.

Anyway, after that I tried to make a John Marston into it. (The main character from RDR).. but well, let me just say, I really really suck at non-building stuff.

Just have a look;


See?

Kinda looks like a elf.. not totally what I was going for :p

So please.. Help me ;D

I think your screen is too small. GB has a bigger screen which might help with making things just slightly bigger and better defined. Frankly, it looks great right now :)

From the GB challenge
Canvas Size - 160 (width) x 144 (height) per screen.

Oh, is it that size really? Damn .. xD

Ahwell, I'll try to edit it to that size then. Going to do that right now I think.

Anyways, anybody got some tips on character design? (well, body, the design is kinda already done.. you know, Rockstar did that.. )
