Yeah, the overworld. What do you guys think of the overworld?
Also, evilguy, what do you plan to do with your level?

Looks like a promising hack. Only nitpick would be the gradient in level one seems to blend not so well. Its could but the colours could be smoother. Nice work. :3

The overworld looks really cool!

What are all those brick like things in the OW? Alot of them look thrown randomly all over the OW. Try placing them in spots that make sense.
Other than that every thing looks fine. I do agree with 1UPdude though, the gradients could blend together better.
edit: double nija'd!

@1UPdudes: What are you saying? Glad you like it, though!
@Evilguy: No, i meant what is your level about? You haven't shown progress, since you are working on SMW - The After Years.
@Lui37: Are you sure? I dunno if i should let you, you look pretty new.
@Wiiqwertyuiop: The main theme of the hack is ruins, you know. No, it wasn't thrown randomly on the OW.

As for the OW, the "ruins" clash with the actual OW, as they are too dark. i suggest darkening to OW, or lightening the ruins. And they DO look like they are randomly strewn around the OW, IMO.

Well the only reason I thought that was because there is cut-off here:

And in some places it looks kinda outta place. But yeah...

Im saying the gradient could be smoother, as in the colours blend more.

This wasn't replied to. Also, about music, can it be, say, a song not from a game, but a singer perhaps? Or does it absolutely have to be custom? Another music question, say some random person on the Internet made a custom MIDI, can we port those to use?

I told i didn't throw random bricks in the OW. Also, why does the pallete of the ruins "Clash" with the OW.
OFFTOPIC: What does Clash mean?
Wiiq: Yeah, i fixed that, i noticed that too.
1UPdudes: Still not following. Maybe an example could work.
MarioStarLuigi: That depends. Show me some of your skills, then i'll decide. Also, i forgot to respond to you, sorry. Also, no, not a singer song, that's kinda silly, if you ask me.

And i also disagree with the custom music. It may be a good idea in theory, but people don't have the time to creare thier own level theme, or don't know how to do so, and there are many ported songs that could work better then a custom one.

@FP: "Clash" means, meh... imagine you have a realistic background from SMW Redrawn together with a cartoony foreground from SMB1 NES. Together, they don't make a great pair, do they? And "clash" means pairs of GFX not working together well.
PS. You could lighten the palette of the ruins a bit.

See the difference? My fake HDMA gradient on the right is smoother and looks better than yours. Yours is good but try and get gradients to be smoother. It makes them look better.

I got some Water castle graphics from the graphics section, you think these would work well?
Choice 1
Choice 2
So... which one should I use?

Clashing means if two things don't fit together, ie. SMW and DKC sprites. They clash pretty hardly with the SMW graphics.
Oh, crap. Ninja'd. -.-
@1UPDudes, yeah, it looks better. I think it could be a bit darker to see a bigger difference. This doesn't mean it doesn't look bad, because it looks pretty good.
@Camoslash, the first one looks great. Not sure though which would fit better.

Rule is a rule, doesn't excuse a stupid move on your part.
I honsetly believe, that in 5 or so pages, you will give the go-ahead to anyone who wants to use ported songs.
Many people, along with myself, do NOT know how to make a song, or wouldn't want to take the time to find a fitting custom made one when there is a perfectly good one already done.
this is all IMO, but i honestly believe you should drop that rule. but aye, your hack.

Teo17: Thanks...
1UPdudes: Oh, the HDMA gradient. I didn't you know you meant that.
Camoslash: I choose choice 2. It looks better IMO.
Shadowfire: No, i will keep that. Yep, i can resist all day...

@camoslash: Yeah I'd go with the 2nd one as well. There might be a chance the first 1 might not fit the style of the hack.
