c&C WELCOME!

Woah! That's awfully big. I don't think AGS supports that resolution.

Hehe it does seem a little big!

Overall, I love it! It has a ton of detail.
One gripe though: instead of scribling fake
text on the menu, you should put readable
text on it and make up some funny names...

[ravenfusion]

I like it.

It looks good. Did you draw (w/pencil & paper) most of it? It looks like it.

[12431]

no, I drew most of it in paint, then I added effects, shading and other cool stuff with PSP and Photoimpact.

and I only make it big so i can add effects easily. I have a shrunken version of it to.

[misterx]

its great,
only thing that bothers me is the bricks that are showing, just doesnt look right....

[Moresco]

Hey that's amazing! If I had any skill such as this, I'd be somewhere already with my game. Heh.  I made a simple pencil style sketch of a house, road, stairs, etc... and as it turns out, my character is now GIANT sized.   Oops.

It looks like you're using textures in PSP or maybe PS. eg Those bricks are just not in pespective. It would look a lot better if you did them by hand.

Overall composition is good, but the colouring is just too patterny. Maybe you could stick to the brush tool and keep off the textures and gradients.

I'd recommend doing some basic perspective study and maybe using a perspective "wireframe" drawn on one layer with vanishing point(s) to get it look right.

Heheh... funny sign....

[12431]

it might be a little off perspective... but I'm satisfied with the result. and a little of perspective is cool
