Is one of the bits you're redoing the one that allowed someone to instantly die when the boss arrived? 

Hey Furt got you fair and square. :3 He planned that. I'll show you guys the turns he took in PM if you don't believe me.

Hopefully I will be able to STABBETHA THE GYAN soon.

Also, shouldn't the Zaku's eye/camera be a more reddish/pinkish color?

It is pink. :p

I dunno, it looks pretty good to me. I'd suggest making the rebreather more obvious on the sprite but... I'm not sure how you'd do that with so few pixels.

I tried doing the "breather" and tubes several times and eventually gave up. Like you said, there simply isn't enough space. It's still recognizable as a Zaku II so I'm pretty happy with it.

I took a closer look and it actually is pink.

I am blind.

[USEC_OFFICER]

I'd take that as a sign that you need to make the sprites bigger. Mostly because the Zaku is pretty identifiable at a glance, while other robots aren't so you might need the extra pixels in the future. Or something. You're the artist here, not me.

[Furtuka]

He does have a point there i think, maybe just a couple more pixels or something

[Parsely]

The tiles are 16x16, the icons have to be slightly less than 16x16 to fit without totally obscuring the terrain behind them. And if I double the size of the map to fit bigger icons, that's twice the number of pixels I need to manipulate.

Yeah no, this isn't worth the time it's taking to do. There's a reason we'll have coordinates lists and names of suits like in FEF. It only needs to be recognizable.

[Furtuka]

my attempt at making the breather

[USEC_OFFICER]

That's... really good, actually. Or at least I kinda like it more than the ones GUNIN has tried.

[Parsely]

;-;

[USEC_OFFICER]

Don't feel too bad? It's not like this is a contest or anything silly like that.

[Parsely]

I'm just kidding around, USEC.

[USEC_OFFICER]

I know. I am too. _{I think.}
