The Wonder Bros. is my newest project.
As I mentioned in the "looking for a midi-composer"-topic, It's a bot Mario-inspired.
The story so far:
The Wonder Brothers (Mack and Zack) were out on a warm spring evening to go the towns finest restaurant where their girlfriends where. But when they arrived the found the roof of the restaurant collapsed, the tables were smashed into pieces and the only thing that was not broken, was a note under a rock. Mack picked it up and it said:
"Dear Wonder Bros.
I have captured your lovely girlfriends and brought them to my castle of doom
inside the eastern volcano. If you want them back, bring me the magic wand of
the zodiacs... if you can! You'll have to defeat my army of bob-monsters, and walk through thousands of caves and hills.

Signed,
"The Bad Guy"
And the brothers decide to go and get the wand, which is at the western volcano, and then bring it to the "bad guy".

Here are some screens:

As you can see, all the graphics are handmade by me. If you think they're ugly, go ahead and say so. It's my first game with ownmade sprites

Indeed the diamond is very nice

Made it in the same as the game itself, The Games Factory

you should really use the edit function. I like the graphics but the problem is that you can really tell the difference where you have used games factory graphics.

Try doing ALL the art yourself, t would look overall nicer

I haven't used Games Factory graphics. Only the text.

Rightclick and save target as!

It just occured to me, those are crystals, not diamonds. (Or perhaps crystal shaped diamonds?)

They are crystal-shaped diamonds

So, what did you guys think of the demo?
