Okay, I'll take the lack of guesses as being no one else has a clue haha. This second still is easier.

wow, that is a huge improvement over the original, great job!

Little further tweaks would be things like the lamp needs to have the top visible to keep in with the perspective - we can still see on top of the bed head rest at that height.

the waste basket, is it half a circle on purpose, like a cool design?

i would consider adding a door frame, too.

I love the wallpaper!

If it's like me using the wiki, I'm told it doesn't like certain browsers like Firefox. I haven't put it into practice, but see if it works with your default browser, I'm guessing you don't normally use!

Just to give you a rough idea of the difference it makes having correct 3D perspective. Although this isn't easy, so maybe consider it when you are feeling more confident. I would also suggest adding shadows. I was rushing so it's a bit sloppy and there are errors.



This is assuming you stick to this style!

Hmm curious, the character looks hand drawn and well drawn too, but the backgrounds remind me of my first ever backgrounds, with flat objects and no realistic use of perspective.

Look into one point perspective videos to see the difference it can make to your rooms. There is two point perspectives and even 3 point (Which I think is for birds eye views) but start with one, which is closest to your rooms. There are also programs like AutoDesk Sketchbook which is free to download, that takes a lot of work out of working out the angles of lines.

But yeah, that style is too low resolution for the character and not cute or cartoony. Haveva look at, I dunno, hello kitty backgrounds or something like my little pony, they'd probably match better.

It's better to look up the images as a reference to see how they did it, rather than think it up in your head. Well, that's what I have found. For instance, I needed to draw a ray gun, I had a good idea of what one looked like. Drew it and.. it looked terrible. So I looked up ray guns and came up with something much better, without actually ripping it off completely. (Like you wouldn't want to draw over these Kyrindia images, just look at how the mountains form like Snarky said.)

Keep it up, you draw better than my first pixel attempts!

Snarky - Oh nice, I think that game I only played the once, and possibly not through the whole game.

I don't have anything to add, but I'm curious. Were you going for an rpg world area style like in ps1 final fantasy games? That's what I'm reminded of here. :)

That's Doomsday and he plays the prime minister I think?

Also Bob Hoskins (RIP) is here, and the guy on the left is very familiar from somewhere else.

Not a bad film, and comes with a booklet about the making of the film.

I often see Alexander Siddig in tv shows and movies, so he'd be a good one!

Except not for a while as I just mentioned him haha.

I like how we keep seeing star trek and stargate actors in these guess stuff threads.

And yes that's Monica from friends. Courtney Cox?

I've seen her in at least 3 different things and I don't think this is any of those!

Aye, it's not easy getting your product out there. I struggled to market the game in my signature. My initial thought to make a platform game was the universal appeal of said type of game. But who do I market it to, its one cute and charming but average platform game in a sea of platform games. It sold several units on steam upon release but has now flatlined.

I'm making an adventure game now, and I feel I could promote that better. There's adventure game specific websites and fans of the genre.

Oh okay, I thought they were processes running in the background. So they're presumably retries on the .exe.

Why does it bring up Unforeseen Incidents in that text file guys? Doesn't that suggest this was running at the same time??
