KOUSUKE-SHII'S PROFILE

@slimeborgi I don't wanna go for cheap jumpscares on this one(learned from my last game LOL). Right now I'm going for the "disturbing effect" but I'm glad you found it decent!

@Mirak Ah I see where you're coming from. I have a flashlight system that allows the players to navigate in the dark which is why I went for a really dark map. I'll have a screenshot at the end of the comment so you can tell me if it works or not. If not I'll lower the darkness like you advised.

@Momeka Yeah but my problem is I don't know how to make the map better. Do you have any suggestions? Maybe the lack of debris makes the map feel so bland? Personally I think it's the floor I drew since it lacks variation, I'm not an artist so any advice on how to make it better will be much appreciated.

@Liberty The players wouldn't actually navigate the dark part. Like I said in the previous replies, I have a flashlight system that allows to navigate easily while still limiting vision. I have a screenshot below, please tell me it works or not. If it doesn't I'll gladly lighten the map up. Also, how do you think I should improve the map? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Here's the flashlight. I think I used Terrax Lighting for this one and I'd imagine players wouldn't have trouble navigating with that much light in front of them whenever they're facing. If you still think it's too dark then I'll lighten it and again, any advice on how to make the map better will be gladly appreciated.


Also just in case you need reference, this is how the whole map looks like without the darkening thing...

Hmmm....that's some very spiffy work you got there. By freelance work, does that mean paid work or non-paid work??

I assume that it is paid. The works in the her portfolio are very high quality.

@Momeka:
As much as I love the other stuff (pedestal and actually getting the shield) I'm not a fan of that weird, super-low-frame spinning shield animation. I have no idea what I'd do differently.

Hmmm... I actually find it very fitting. I also have no idea how to improve it but I don't really think it needs improving in the first place.

@Infection Files:
They are custom, that game will use all 100% custom graphics
@Kaempfer:
Thanks

@Kousuke-shii:
What I would add for the water is a sort of border separating it from the grass. The trees to the left I notice hang over the grass tiles also which appear as square tiles.
I could tell it was a bridge but someone could mistake/ due to the colors and perhaps the lack of the picture being static that the bottom of the river (stone) is actually wall or just ground.

Ahh yeah, I was going to add like rocky borders, or maybe some grass but I haven't created them yet. Thanks for the reminder though, not gonna lie I almost forgot about it.

So uhmm.. I'm pretty new here so sorry if this is the wrong place for this but here's one of the maps I've been working on. It's still incomplete(the other ones are incomplete too) but I desperately need feedback or criticism or whatever. It for some reason, looks messy and bland I think... Need advice T___T..

It's a really nice start but the house's (garage?) doors is just one texture with no variation, maybe you could add decorations to live it up a bit? Also some flowers and such on the grass could help.

I don't know the setting so I can't give ideas for the decorations but if it's garage, the pavement should probably go up all the way to the doors because the grass would die with people driving on it.

Here's ideas how to liven up the doors

Welp, I see where I failed at.. Hahaha.. It was supposed to be a bridge like this one..

Here's an update version where I added a bunch of leaves on the ground..

I'm gonna add the flowers once I finish making them.. What do you think? Do it really look like a garage? LOL
