So I'm making a farming game (obviously lol) and have two potential titles screens and although they're both sorta bad ( I'm pretty bad at this sorta thing Xb) I wanna know which one would be more suited more to the game with this description,
"There's been a recent influx of people to your city recently, jumping from 10,000 people to 300,000 in just ten short years, the neighborhood you grew up in used to have playgrounds and parks now it's aligned with apartment buildings and factories, your parents regret raising you in such a place, and as their last wish before dying of disease caused by pollution you leave your home town in search of a new place to live, One day you hear about a Town Called Symphony, as far from a large town as you can get having only 26 people apparently, and in the town there is a farm, remembering your Mother's stories about growing up on one you decide to buy it this is how your life begins."(If there's anything used wrong please don't hesitate to let me know!)

---EDIT----
I didn't realize the poll wouldnt show pictures so here's the choices so you can see...

Choice 1


Choice 2


(also I had the choice descriptions in the questions mixed up, srry, my first poll :()
Well, for one, this is not really the sort of thing for this thread; Your topic seems out of place.

Secondly, the poll is just links to your locker; It does not show a picture.

Finally, I hate to break this to you, but both of these are pretty bad. I would go for the top so it would not look like a MS paint effort. That spray effect in the bottom is really bad.

2/3. Both of those are commented on in the main post i said they were bad my self there really wasn't reason for you to say it... And by the way it was made in MS Paint, it was my first drawing on a computer and I plan on re doing it.

What exactly was wrong with the one that said "Help Me!"?
It is just meant to give you an directive. So be at ease.

I think if you flesh out the actual farm in the first picture, it would look pretty decent. It took me a while to figure out what the darker bits were supposed to be, haha.

Umm I thought that was for game mechanics and working out stuff for eveneting or scripting problems if I am wrong and that's where it should be could someone move this if it's not to much trouble, I really thought this would be the most suited to this question so I'm sorry. See the descriptions? Especially the highlighted that made me think this would be the proper place...

I get the feeling you still don't know what two of the things are lol i think i used to much smudge while editing it tbh

Given that I can't even tell what the picture in the first screenshot is supposed to be of, my opinion would tend towards using on the second picture. Supposing my opinion means anything.
.. eh? I never started naming everything I see in the first place. There are many things to be seen with the field in the foreground and a barn, house, grain bin .. and yeah, some stuff inbetween I can't fully make out.

Either way, probably too much smudge. I really think the idea of a framed picture is neat and it will look fairly decent if worked over a little bit.



To the topic-place.. it can be confusing by that description alone.

The Game Design and Development is by and large about disucssion and theory about general concepts

Whereas Help Me! is about a concrete problem at hand.

That is only a guideline. There is place for both, really. People are flexible, and the option to move is still there.
