But here's some things that I see that I thought I'd point out:
Mario:
- I'd put some pixels under the feet when he lifts his feet or jumps off the ground. When he's standing on the ground, it's fine to not have pixels under his feet, but when he lifts his feet off the ground, it kind of looks strange
- His hair on the Big Mario sprites and the Small Mario sprites looks a little bit long, maybe you can trim his hair back a pixel or two. The climbing sprite's hair looks fine, though.
Luigi:
- Same for what I've said for Mario
Goomba, Koopa Troopa, Piranha Plant:
- For Koopa Troopa, I'd put some shell markings like he does in other sprites, and to give them more detail.
- For Piranha Plant, I'd add an outline on his teeth that don't have a pixel beside or above them. (If you don't know what I mean by this, I can show you an example if you want)
Items and Blocks:
- I'd add a line on top of the block that appears in Super Mario World.
- Maybe add a skull on the Poison Mushroom to make it look different than a Super Mushroom or a 1UP Mushroom
- The cloud could use some work, try using the cloud in this tileset as a reference. (it was as good as I could find)
Other than that, these are very nice sprites! The Warp Pipes are colorful, Goomba, Big Goomba, and Paragoomba look good, Sidestepper looks pretty goodf, and I like that you gave Luigi a different set of sprites instead of making him a recolor of Mario.
also, i did a version of a piranha plant that has no outline for its teeth:
but i'm not going to improve the Mario brothers, and the Koopa Troopa for the following reasons:
- The spikey hair of the Mario brothers was an artistic choice due to how the Mario brothers hair was depicted in Super Smash Bros (64) in game.
- The feet of the Mario brothers when they lift their feet or jump off the ground look fine to me.
- The Shell on the Koopa Troopa having no Shell markings was also a artistic choice.
What do you think?
