Sonic 2: Rebirth of Paradise

Hmm, looks pretty good.
Could be a little darker though, doesn't give the underground feel to me.

 

Definitely too light for underground.
EDIT: Even for daytime, and this takes place at night.

 

It shouldn't be too hard, just darken all of the colors you have by an equal ammount, and it will look the same, but darker. It's also kind of blurry to me right now.

 

Looks nice, don't darken it too much though.

 

I'm not sure if I really like the way you're going for the underground stuff. Try and make it look rocky.

 

Good stuff, keep it up.

 

You could make it like Hidden Palace's foreground.

 

Yeah, that could work. Although building the mappings for HPZ styled art are a bitch. Not something I'd recommend to the lazy hacker, like me. =P I'm not saying dhz is a lazy hacker, he's really trying here, obviously.

If you work at it though, it'll look great.

edit: clarification.

 

Looks quite original. But I'd have to take a look at a decent non-deformed screenshot to be sure.

 

Yes, please take off the "stretch to fit window". It doesn't make a difference that much to me, but some others would really appreciate it.

 

I think the background should be a mixture of Mystic Cave and Hidden Palace's big chunks of rock. That would look really decent

Those 2 latest screens give a better impression of how it looks. Love it.

Just got another idea: smart bomb monitor, blow up all badniks on screen.

 

You're right. You don't have it.

 

I love the new palette. There are a few problems with the art, which I am sure you will correct. Such as the diagonal art not continuing the texture, and the tiles under the grass. Other than that, and the weird pole tile sticking in the middle of the ground, it looks great.
