That would be Snatcher

Congratz tor.brandt
I've been following the project from afar and I'm glad it's finally out.
Will definitely play this!

[Fatal Frame]

Fatal Frame/Project Zero? (which incidentally is the international name for the Zero series)

Oh I didn't knew this

Yup, it is Fatal Frame

Edit:

Zero: Tsukihami no Kamen?

So you were right, sorry

Eternal Darkness?

Nop

Zero: Tsukihami no Kamen?

Nop

But it is a Japanese Horror game!

clocktower?

Nop, but before I chose this game I wanted to put clocktower
Pretty sure someone has already posted it though

I'm passing on my turn to whoever wants it.

Okay I'll carry on then

It looks so alive!
The graphics are gorgeous and the story looks mesmerizing, as always
Can't wait to play it

Oh I know that game!
It's Semen!
Wait, no, Seaman.

I'll let someone else have my turn.

DAAAAaaamn
Way to go, Danzvare

Okay, i'll take your turn since you instant found it

Goold ol' game, quite easy:

Oh yeah! Was sure thoses polygons belonged to Neverwinter Nights
Truly one of my favorite RPG

and now
One of the weirdest game ever
Difficult guess also, I don't think many people know this game:

Neverwinter Nights?

You know, it it's suppose to be in the background and even further away, then you need to de-saturate it, more than your room... try looking at stuff that are very far away. When you make it that brightly colored into a room like that, it'll just up and be in your face all the time.

Yup I do understand that in theory

I may retry from scratch, definitely not happy with this, everything looks out of place

Gives me creep just by looking at it, really nice atmosphere

Hey, it' got a lovely atmosphere! Very eery/spooky.
Though that picture seems to jump out of the BG... is it floating in the foreground?

Thanks, I guess creating an atmosphere is the only thing I can achieve right now

...It's supposed to be a window
But I think I overmade the frame

I really have trouble with perspective

About your backgrounds: They are in two rather different styles and even another style compared to the character. It is generally a good idea to have all art in the same style, especially when starting out making games.

Hey cat, thanks for your feedback

Yup i'm quite aware of this, theses 2 backgrounds were merely tests

I tried to do something more in my character's style but... yeah :

Hey it's not that bad!
Basically, on the walk cycle you are just missing the "bounce". Which means that when the legs are side by side he's higher, and when his legs are further apart he'll g lower.
Just search the forum or google for "walk cycle" and you'll get a lot of examples on how to do it.

Don't what the 1st BG is suppose to be, but looks disturbing.
Love the wind/fog effect you have on the second.

Hello Cassie,
thanks for the feedback!

Yup that background is kinda creepy It was my first attempt to do a perspective-room and I thought the textures looked interesting, I may try to do something with it

Indeed, I forgot the "bounce"
I've been studying the walk-cycles to do my character, just missed that part!

Here it is, but It still looks kind of floppy in my opinion :

It takes quite a while to get good at drawing, but you're certainly better than I was when I first started.

Personally, I think what you've got is good enough for a nice stylized game. They look quite nice to me.

If you want to know how to improve on your art in general though, I have only two recommendations. Draw with pencil and paper every day (you'd be surprised at how much those skills transfer to all other types of art), and draw pixel art in a much smaller resolution, then double it, and carve it out. That's how I improved.

Hey Danvzare, thanks for your feedback.
Cheers I'm glad it looks nice to you

Yup i've been thinking about this, but as you tell me i'll definitely start to draw with the good ol' pencil and paper again, I'm sure it helps out as it has helped you improved.
I've been trying to do the smallest character I can come with but I always end up doing something more "detailed" (call it blurry ) for some reason Thing is I didn't wanted this character to be like this because it don't feel like pixel art to me... But I heard you and i'll try to start over with something smaller maybe.

Any tips about character's resolution? This one is in 60*110, like one of the default game's templates

Hey everyone

I finally joined the forum after stalking you for all theses years Happy to be among you
I have always played Point'n'Click games, I've done a looot of them since my childhood, especially old-school ones (The Longest Journey, Myst, Runaway, Monkey Island, Amerzone, Syberia...)

Recently i've finished nearly all of the Wadjet Eye Games game's and I've been surprised they only used A.G.S. to do them, so I decided to give it a try!
Well, long story short, I understand how the software works (after following densming's tutorials on youtube) but it's been some days i'm trying to draw a correct character and to animate it and man, i'm really having a hard time since i'm not quite the visual artist
Here's my best work so far, it's merely a test for now but any critism is welcome (yes you do have the right to laugh)
I really wish to improve myself since I have a lot of ideas for my first point'n'click adventure!
Oh and I work on GIMP...

My first character, StrangeBot.png :
