Top Pixel Art - April 2015 (#4)
Wonderful. I just find the face of the prince a bit hard to read with the hair being of the similar color.
Awesomeness of this IS OVER NINE THOUSAND!!! 
That curvilinear perspective and composition, that colors, lighting and style! 
Yeah my palette process is start with a primary(yellow), a secondary(lavender), and a neutral(blue). From there, I add colors when I need them, and reuse them when I can. That's how I got this whole thing done with 45 colors. Though I bet an artist more skilled than I could have done it in fewer.
Oh, I didn't realize you were working with a pre-made palette.
Thanks so much! Yeah, I had to make a few concessions there. There is no orange in the palette. The closest are a couple of warm browns, which are present in the crown. I did my best to unify the palette with borrowing colors from everywhere, and reusing it everywhere else. I would also have liked to make Auro's skin a bit more red, but the reddest color in the pallette is practically indigo!
I'm just now, in the past couple years really focusing hard on color and gamut. Next one will be better.
Awesome perspective and action. My only crit would be that the colors on the crown don't look very golden. A hue shift to orange would make it look more like gold instead of shiny yellow.
It may have taken a long time (I remember reading about your project wayyy back), but most games don't ever make it out of development, so you've beaten the odds all the same.
Thanks everyone for the crazy support! For those of you interested, as I said in the description, the game itself took 4 years and it is 100% hand done pixel art by yours truly. No mixed resolutions, no scaling, no particle effects or shadow engine. The real deal. If you'd like, please check it out!
