I need a name for the city in my game. Here are the final 4. We need advice on which is the best:

Hicksville

Hickington

Stenchberg

Fart Colons (copying Fort Collins)

Or if you have any other funny ideas, please tell me. I'm open for ideas ;D.

That doesn't look ANYTHING like Tulsa, it's more like one of the satellite cities, Muskogee or Stigler maybe.

Hicksville should work great with the Wal-Mart and guns reference.

Technically its Mal-Wart. I don't wanna get sued.

I also need some criticism on my art. Any suggestions?

I really think the missing letter in Public in Public Library should be the first L so it says Pub ic Library. But that's just me.

Or the B, so it would read Pu lic   a.k.a Poo Lick, by the way, I like the name Screwin-bread out of mine the best

@$*#!!!!

That's exactly what I was going to say, but then I saw your post, you beat me to it!!!!!

Yeah, and your perspective's wrong, the colors you used for the malwart and grass hurt ny eyes, please change them.

I dont want to do the Pub ic library, because it's been done before in Family Guy.

OK, I have changed the colors on the mal-wart. I made the blue darker, added a red stripe, and colored the bottom half grey. How does it look now? Any other suggesstions?

There's something wrong with the 'alley' between Greatest Purchase and the Library... The little bit with
'police' written above it...

I'm not sure exactly what that is.... is it meant to be a dark alley, or something? It sort of looks like that
from the perspective, and yet the writing "stay out" makes it look flat, like it's facing the street.... I think
that's because you've got the text slanting upwards, whereas in real-life, the text would be horizontal,
with the letter "s" being the smallest, and consequent letters becoming larger and larger (maybe you
could have a slight slope up or down...)

The other thing I noticed, you might want to change the colour of the nuclear waste barrell thingo.
The way it is, it looks as though it is empty and transparent, so you see the grass behind it.
It either needs to be more realistic (give it a shot of black/brown/poop) or more cliched (give it
a more violent green, not fluro, though).

Apart from that, I think it's great. I especially love Mal-Wart.

OK, I fixed the picture yet again. I got rid of the Police thing, because it really didn't make any sence. I fixed the "Get Out" writing in the alley to make it look more like its on the wall, and made the toxic waste drum dark grey, with green scum on it.
