Updates to come soon.  I've done screens in 16 and 32 color palettes as well as scaled back the project to 320x240 to make things easier.  My ambitious plans simply weren't doable on my own.  The past few months have been a lot more coding and story writing, since I felt there was no point in making screens without more concrete settings.  I look forward to hearing what everyone thinks of the different angle.

Yeah, it takes a long time, but I like the fact that it's not so pixely...but I'll end up giving it a go with a couple other screens to see how I like it...regardless, thanks for the input, guys.  I welcome critical reviews...I'll defend myself, but I'm not going to get offended...afterall, that's why I'm here.  I'll have more to come in the coming weeks.  Sadly I can't transfer the 2400x600 pic correctly...it's always scaled down.

Snarky,

Thanks for the input.

All screens are 800x600...the corridor is I think triple the length without checking.  It will be a scrolling map similar to the first game.  The plan with the corridor is that it's basically an enhanced version of what was in the previous church...and unfortunately when I posted the picture here, it zoomed out so much that details aren't very easy to see...I promise there's a lot more shading than the picture leads on in the size uploaded.

The church is the ONLY scene that will resemble anything from the first loom...and I wanted to have the feel of the original in that regard.  There's an added tapestry hanging (the one that was damaged is now finished and a new one that's incomplete now hangs next to it)

I agree that there is a lot of grey, but my issue was that I didn't like the few textures I had dabbled with.  Granted that scene is nowhere near complete, the church picture is around revision #20 already.

I'll see if I can link a better version for everyone to get a better look at.  The truth is, the screen will be zoomed in enough that most of the walls won't really be seen...afterall, I didn't want to spend 20+ hours on something that wasn't going to be noticed in game.  (at least at this stage)

More to come so that I don't look like I did a terrible job...haha.

There are a couple in the works, but since they're going a route that I'm not really wanting to go, I figured I'd start making my own dream a reality.  I've been spending my time using JUST GIMP it's EXTREMELY taxing since it takes forever to get things done (and I'm a perfectionist) but regardless, I'm slowly getting there.  If anyone has any input on what I've done so far, please let me know! 
   

Uploaded is one of the space animations similar to the first one, but will be used a tad more than with the original.  The still is of the new and updated church.  Everything has been hand drawn and matches the original in color and pattern.
