I agree with SeanIvy. It seems you are being immature and unwilling to accept criticism. Unless you get better art, you should probably make this game free.
You should probably find a real graphics design program, instead of just microsoft paint. Can you show us a video yet?
this game gonna be really simple right? Is this really gonna be depth like touch pets or just like the crappy virtual pet games in the store?
He is basically improving himself. The graphics aren't that bad for paint. Trust me i've seen some slopped up paint projects. He isn't even getting paid for this. AND SERIOUSLY? Tell him to take criticism? Theirs something called constructive criticism... That's where you tell him how he can improve. Not go "This looks like it was made by a kindergardener"
I know they arent that bad for paint, that isnt what im saying, its just that if he had a graphics program the graphics could probably improved with a graphics program.
Hmmmm... I'm starting to have second thoughts on this. The MS Paint style graphics worked in Trace so they might look good in this. saintsalive has a good developer making this game so it could be a lot better once we see it in motion. In fact I found one of the sprite sheets for a Blink that saintsalive posted in this thread and quickly made it into an animation below: Honestly, I quite like the look of it.
I've made another animation using the sprite sheet that saintsalive made, this time you can see the Blink moving along:
Quite. It's possible to get some awesome sketches out of paint. Getting that into a game and animated though... that would be impressive.
It does look better animated, but I still think unless you promise frequent updates it isn't worth a dollar. If you do, though, i'm all sold.
which unfortunately SaintsAlive didn't do. "Its very awesome icon was put together by one of my close friends Zack, aka "ilovepocketgod". "
