Mockup commisioned by Cowfrog Studios for their primere sci-fi/survival game "Alacrity Mission". Check it out on their site: http://www.cowfrog-studios.com/

Had a lot of freedom in terms of designing the tiles so I had fun with it.

You're right, the lily pad is interactable and should have stronger priority than the tree. I kind of cheated on the tree lightening up the canopy in PS to keep the layers readable (before it was similar in color to the grass and blended in a bit, a good testament to the fine line in balancing visual elements.)

As to the texturing, tbh I was reffing DE pretty hard from his work in Americana Dawn. I don't think it stands out too much and is a fun style to mess with while not having to render each leave individually.

 one little nitpick is that the treetops seem to have a diffferent texturing style to them than everything else. They could probably use a treatment similar to that of the bushes in the water. And maybe to be pushed back a bit, since right now they have almost equal precedence to the giant lillypad in the water.

Nothing too major, but after a quick look it was a noticeable inconsistency, so it's worth considering.

I never officially played SoE but I know of it and respect it. It was one of the refs they gave me so I'm glad this is somewhat evocative of that.
