 All of the parts of this little map sample were made from scratch by me; the character is technically scratch, but I just copied screenshots pixel by pixel.  Also, there's this, which was made today in about an hour. I'm not exactly satisfied with it completely, for some reason. He's kinda scrawny, but it's not bad for a total scratch, IMO.  Also, this. It's old (made about a year and a half ago), but I'm particularly proud of it. |

Very nice tiles there, and I'm pretty impressed by that badge case as well. I think the main issues with the trainer are the slightly disproportionate arms and that the shading seems to mainly border the outlines. Try to keep in mind that since light for this kind of spriting comes from the top left, that the farther right and down you go, the more shadow you'll have to apply. All in all, good work though  |

Yeah. I've always had a problem when the time to shade a sprite comes around; I'm still a bit sketchy when it comes to that; and when you refer to the arms as "disproportionate", you mean to shorten them up, right?
And thanks for the compliments on the tiles and badge case. I'll see if I can spruce up the trainer sprite. Not trying excuses, it's been a long while since I sprited in earnest.

Yeah I'd say shorten up the arms a bit, and also it seems like the shoulders start at different places, but that just may be the way the bag goes around his right shoulder

Much better. As for the tiles and map, very good, although i think it could benefit from slightly toned down grass color as it seems a bit bright currently. Also the cliffs I think might look nice with darker outlines. The trees I must say look great, good work!

Yeah, people tell me that all the time about the grass... I'm gonna just come up with an entirely new pallette for the grass.
I'm not exactly following what you mean... could you elaborate?

Never mind actually, I think it's just the contrast against grass. Forget I said anything  |

Great badge case, I'd love to see that used in the game.

I was going to use it for my fangame, but well, my fangame didn't even get off the ground... anybody's free to use it, as long as due credit is given.
