I've been working on this for a while now.
Anyone remember Sparkster? He hasn't gotten the attention he used to, and seeing how he appeared in New International Track and Field, he's obviously not entirely forgotten. So I made this box art for a new Sparkster game for the DS.

High quality version here.

I love the guy too, I recently got into his SNES game and I love it so much. Enough that I want to try to get the real game instead of just the rom.

Hi Parakarry.

Anyway, as I said before, the front and back sparksters just don't match. For starters, the color, and the overall art style.

The front and back cover's art clash. The front cover lacks lack dynamic and you should have more screens at the back.
It's not a very eye-catching box, so work on the colours and layout.

Well I wanted to have more screens but the one sprite I found just had the one pose.
And I know the front and back art looks different, but besides that, what Sparks is doing is pretty much great fitting for what I was going for.

It says returns on the box, but I've never heard of Sparkster.
I can make games, movies, sprites, and more and I'm willing to help, unless the sprites you need are above nes style. I'm not the best.Tongue

Probably before my time or I was too young to have played it. Or I just never heard of it. It all works.

I've never played sparkster on the snes but I've played rocket knight adventures on the genesis and loved it
I don't know if that sparkster art on the front cover is official or not but either way it's pretty terrible and doesn't look like sparkster and should be changed

that and the art isn't dynamic enough

Well being how it was just a photoshopping I used some resources from deviantart (with credit of course). I know they don't look the same but what they're doing in general i really liked.
