| Apr 28, 2020 12:26 PM | MDTravis | Asset: Sonic (Sonic 1 Beta-Style) | Nice one |
| Apr 28, 2020 12:20 PM | Ton | Asset: Domino | Huh. That's a really good observation. I still don't know why they have giant snakes, though. |
| Apr 28, 2020 12:12 PM | Naffy zacky | Asset: World Maker | I still wonder why do they call the Castle theme "Volcano" when it's clearly looks like Castle |
| Apr 28, 2020 11:02 AM | Paraemon | Asset: Ice Paradise | @YGbJm - Is that a problem? This was one of the backgrounds missing from the Advance 2 page. |

| Apr 28, 2020 4:08 AM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Domino | I think I finally figured out what he and Cloaker are. They're living ancient Arabian incense bottles (like a genie might be found in, though Domino looks more like a hookah specifically). Their clothes and weapons also have heavy influence in depictions of ancient Arabian/Persian culture, with Domino having a veil and Cloaker having a fez, scimitar and jeweled round shield. Not to mention the giant cobras. Now, as for WHY they have this design influence given their location...that's the question. |

| Apr 28, 2020 3:20 AM | TehPuertoRicanRipper | Asset: Sonic (Classic) | @Thomas_15700YT He doesn't respond because he's dead. Try to go to the right submitter next time. |

| Apr 28, 2020 2:39 AM | Doc von Schmeltwick | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | @RTB I personally have no beef with this couple of sprites, though I beg to differ on one thing: "Sonic.EXE" isn't an "original character," he's an idiotic and lazy stylization of Sonic, similar to Fleetway Super Sonic, but stupid. Additionally, I haven't a problem over the source being unofficial, but I don't want it to be misidentified as being so, as that's misleading. |
| Apr 28, 2020 2:35 AM | N-Mario | Update: Super Mario It's Gonna Be May-ker | I wonder if there's a site or generator to make that GIANT font like that. It seems ASCII based, or something. Looks neat. |
| Apr 28, 2020 1:35 AM | KodyCrimson | Asset: Metal Sonic (Sonic Battle-Style) | Is it alright if I use this for a fan game I'm making? |
| Apr 28, 2020 1:13 AM | Random Talking Bush | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | Look. I shouldn't have to say this, but we (the staff) don't just blindly accept things on The VG Resource, we have our reasons for allowing things like this on the site. We discussed this particular submission for a while, and after some deliberation and considering the fact that this thing is technically semi-official (Miami New Times isn't Nintendo, sure, but it's an official news outlet so that's got to count for something, right?), and most of us found it amusing overall and decided to approve it. Also, what about all of the ROM hacks and fan game submissions we have on the site already? Should those not be allowed because they're not official? Plus, I feel it's also necessary to bring up how you guys never complained about MisterMike's Terminal Montage-styled Kirby sheet, despite the fact that's not an official thing either... but apparently rabidbaboy's Kirby sheet is somehow offensive too despite being a wacky stylization of an existing character? Seriously? It was bad enough I had to purge the comments because it was just so demoralizing to look at. So no, something like this existing this doesn't mean that we're just accepting OCs like Sonic.EXE or the 145th Undertale AU. We need silly things like this to keep spirits high at times like this, and as my dad would regularly quote, "Lighten up, Francis". |
| Apr 28, 2020 1:04 AM | Garamonde | Asset: Mario & Luigi (Miami New Times Best of 2014-Style) | You guys ever hear of the saying "if you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all"? You all need to seriously calm down. There is nothing objectively wrong with it. If you don't like it, scroll past, don't all come together and bash it like it's the plague. What has this community come to? It seems nobody likes anything silly or fun or out of the norm anymore. Also, our quality control is not "all over the place", it's called "encouraging creativity". Stop with the "how was this accepted" comments; we have our (good) reasons for accepting what we do, with the exception of when we occasionally overlook things. Anymore negative comments here and action will be taken. Please get over yourselves. |

| Apr 27, 2020 4:16 PM | Neslug | Asset: Johto Pokémon (R/G/B-Style) | @MishuK9 Yes, definitely. I'm quite familiar with Pat Ackerman's spritework but I think his sprites, certainly excellent, have a different problem: the linework and highly consistent designs more resemble GSC but they use shades of one color like RGB, not to mention they're fairly large. But people are making these for fun so it really isn't a huge deal and I didn't want my initial post to come across like that. Imitating certain styles can be difficult, especially if the style isn't really consistent because it was actually multiple people with differing approaches to spriting. The stereotype of RGB being funny or weird-looking probably started with the popular ones people like to post, like Golbat or Venusaur. Maybe the secret of capturing the style lies in not focusing on the poses, but in trying to slightly "reinvent" the designs while keeping most of the core details? |
| Apr 27, 2020 4:11 PM | Bomba1749 | Game: Yo-kai Watch | If anyones wondering why there arent japanese versions of some of the stuff (eg battle rankings, its bc i don't have the japanese version of yokai watch (and i can't find one for sale also)) |
| Apr 27, 2020 1:36 PM | 935935935 | Asset: World Maker | No problem. |
