Which Looks More Water Like?
« on: September 02, 2010, 07:18:40 pm »
Basically what the question asks. I'm wonder which picture contains the sprite that looks most like water :)

Option Old:


Code: [Select]
█__
_█_
█__
_█_
__█

Option New:


Code: [Select]
█_█
██_
_██
██_
_██

Thanks for anyone's input :)

I like the second, although option 3 looks identical to option 1 in my eyes O.O

I think #3 is #1 shifted up one pixel.

That really hurts my eyes o.O, perhaps post them on a smaller scale so its easier to tell the difference?

Well I updated it all to better pictures so they aren't as skewed so they are more uniform. Also provided the individual tiles for each one in case that helps :) Thanks everyone :D

hmmm, they all look relatively the same to me.  Have you tried different styles of water?  Like horizontal, wavy, darker, lighter, little pixels, marshy.

Personally, I think it's too dark and contrasted to look like water. What about something like the water used in Mario 2.0?

EDIT: Shouldn't this be in Pixel Art and Drawing?

Well I'm planning on using 3*5 pixel sprites so I don't know how many options I have unless I do one sprite then the other, which will complicate the tilemapper. I'm just not the best spriter and 3*5 doesn't leave a whole lot of options :P I know they all look similar.

I don't know. I just put it here since I put my character sprite here too. I just thought it should be since it's technically not TI-BASIC or assembly but it's still calculator related and such.
