Guess who turned 22 right now?

When I realised I'd turn 22 at nearly the same time I hit my 666. icon i tried my best to make those two things happen at the same time x)



Here is my present for you all, some random icons, some requests and as special some of the old XP-RTP icons remade from scratch - the old ones are below so you can compare.

(second row: hot-water bottle, antiquated injection. gingerbread, snail, gold ingot, "fire bottle", "water bottle", gold ore)

The complete sheet is in the start post again, all 666, so you can save them all easily^-^

Since it's my birthday I really wish for some feedback and some not binding suggestions what I could also do.

Happy birthday, Avery! :D

These are lovely icons, as usual. I love that realistic green stalk of the carrot, and I'm glad you explained the icons. I thought the gingerbread was chocolate, and the gold ore was..something else ;D

I also like the antiquated injection because I'm sure this would fit in a medieval setting. That snail is cute too. I'm not sure what the object is next to the carrot (a DS?), and the thing between the two keys.

Well, if you'd like suggestions, how about futuristic/alien-looking objects? Like geometric cubes/shapes/circles that could be used as sci-fi/alien keys or loot. Or space helmet? Oxygen tank? (Admittedly I haven't searched yet to see if these items are there. I can go look later)

Those remade icons are a big improvement.  I think you're really quite amazing at these.  Working small and making it recognizable is harder than most people realize, but you do that and make it look good too.  Great job!

Happy birthday! (Late?) 

Sometimes, it is difficult to give criticism on something that someone is so perfect on. Your icons are BEAUTIFUL and your improvement icons are better than the RTP (imo). Sometimes, it is hard to tell exactly what you were trying to do, however, once you say what it is, I have no problem being able to see what it is. My hat goes off to you and your perfection.

hey, love your work so far. could i trouble you with a request of my own? i'm looking for a sword similar to falchion in fire emblem awakening and if possible seven hexagrams like the kind you see in demon summoning rituals. i only really need one but having seven would be lore friendly for my game. :p so if it's not too much trouble, these would be a great help. they don't need to be really complicated or anything and having different colours would also help a great deal.

and happy birthday (although it's really late XD)

here's a picture of falchion for reference

EDIT: actually just a single hexagram would be fine. i can just recolour them later. thnx

Explanation:

Egypt: ankh and scarabaeus

Christian: cross and eucharist goblet/ eucharist goblet filled with wine

historical: sky disk of nebra and one of the Sögel-swords found next to it

"fantasy": excalibur and excalibur plus stone

Wow, your new icons look amazing. 

I made an iconset for my game a while ago, combined the RTP icons with your icons, but it looks like now I'll have to make a new one...

Going to take a while to arrange all the icons, but it looks like it's totally going to be worth it.

Again, amazing work - as usual  :)

Thank you Alkorri and Ruby <3

Remember those seven XP Remake-Icons?

I tried my best and remade evrey Icon of the XP-RTP from scratch... well three are "just" edits of other things I also made from scratch.

It took me hours and now my fingers hurt a little, but it was worth the pain xD

I proudly present those 50 icons:

Here's a gif to see the difference:

What do you think? Which remake do you like most?
 

Bonkers

Get ready to be Wowed!

The skull, metallic helmet, and the apple remake were definitely the best of the bunch.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
