the first top has a palette of 84 different colors, which while it does look good, could definitely use some palette reduction

I used paint.net (posterize function) to auto reduce your palette down to 12 shades instead of 84; this is a dirty way of reducing color and you'd want to go back in and fix lost detail and alter the palette afterwards, but shows a rough idea of what it would look like

you can see that even though your palette is cut by nearly 75%, your image is now crisper and more readable, even before tweaking and fixing lost detail


If you are wanting a more "authentic" pixel art feel for your graphics, smaller more defined palettes certainly help


All this aside, i think what you have here looks quite nice and is a stones throw from the minish cap edits from not so long ago Smile

keep it up

I edited the OP is that better?
