Colors

[Flame]

This question would be much easier to answer if you could show us what thing are you trying to add the colors to.

Personally I pick my own colors, but if I'm trying to imitate a certain game style I get a few game screenshots and pick the colors from there.

This is the picture, I'm going to use the last one onto the right.

Omnilith replied to it on a different forums and told me great advice on what should I do.

Hope you don't mind that I made an edit, Flame :>



I mostly messed with the hues and saturation of the colors in the original. I tried not to ruin the atmosphere.
One of the primary issues with the original was the lack of distinction between background elements and the character and solid ground. Since the eye tends to perceive things with lower contrast between colors and with a tint of blue as being further away, you might want to try something like that with the background. The opposite can be done to make sure the foreground stands out (well, you don't have to add red- I only did that here to further differentiate the now purple-hued background from the foreground tiles.)

The main character could also use some more contrast to help it stand out. I think the outlines around the different bricks making up the background are a little on the dark side still, but I'll let you mess around with that. Good luck!

I understand the advice and know what to do. But, all the colors I pick does not have the same setting/feeling I want for the game.
So, I'm having a color block on that basically.
