Note that the OW design is definitely not final. I might get rid of the smaller islands to make place for a bigger one or something.

EDIT: OVERWORLD DONE. CLICK HERE.

If we submit an OW that makes use of six submaps, will the submaps be judged in the submap category or do they have to be sent seperatly from the main OW?

Also, is it alright if we submit it to the file bin, then send a link to it?

CAN I GET SOME C+C FROM ANYONE? ...Anyone?


Wait a second right here... I'm 99.9% sure those tree graphics you're using for your entry are mine. If they're in fact mine, please ask for permission next time you use something from me... {:|


World one of my main OW. I still have to work on the rest though.

Also, I'll be making 6 submaps as well, since I think I'm better at making maps when I'm more limited with space (for whatever reason).


 
Hey Blaze, Shouldn't you delete the old events off of the overworld first? I think your OW is VERY nice, but it'd be better with events in my opinion. :P

The first "islands" of my overworld.
Man, I've been blowing off my OW for too long, I need to get back to work...

MATTAN: Looks good (I see you took my suggestion for the trees ^~^). I like the feel of it, but I don't like some of the path walking... It just seems... Odd (for some reason, maybe it's just me :\), and you walk on some cliffs as well... Stickerbrush Symphony fits it pretty well, but a little darker theme might fit it perfectly.

WhiteYoshiEgg: I love the pattern of the ground graphics, and the use of Toad Houses is nice :D Though the slope-like hills could use a little recoloring, along with the Toad Houses (The light blue seems too off from the volcanic theme) overall it's an extremely good preview of probably an even better overworld!

I agree with Dimentio's theory about the paths... kinda choppy
MATTAN: Could use a bit more work. The design looks pretty strange, and if it's a jungle-themed Overworld, shouldn't there be more trees? Other than that, nice job.

WYE: Very nice job with the Overworld. The palettes are nice, and I love the graphic tweaks. I can find anything wrong with this one. Keep up the good work! ^_^

Also, I'd like to show off part of my overworld. I don't want to reveal too much right now, but my overworld is going to be divided into 4 regions: The Spring region, Summer region, Autumn region, and the Winter region. Right now, I'm currently making some custom sprites for my Overworld, so it'll be a while before I finish. Here's a screenshot:

Thanks for all ideas on how to improve my Ow. It's nice that we all don't just think about winning but rather having fun.
Jimmy: I like it, so far it seems a bit generic and empty, but I guess you're going to add stuff since it's not finnished.
Jimmy52905: In my opinion, your Ow is good, but, if is a spring region, must have more flowers in it.

I have a screenshot of my main Overworld. Here it is:
OW Central2

(Sorry for grammar mistakes)
Whoa! That's a really impressive overworld! That's going to be hard to beat! Anyway, thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll try and add more decorations to my overworld.
That's one heck of an overworld, Lunatic Wolf. Probably the best one posted so far! I'll have to work extra hard if I want to beat that! :)
*Dimentio throws the towel in.*
And with that OW, I quit XD
Very nice Overworld! Did you design those graphics yourself? I like the mountain idea you have, and the curves fit together perfectly!

I think we have another great overworld designer here ^~^

Damn, that's the best overworld I'VE EVER SEEN! How long did it take you to make that? :P

Can we take parts of the submaps and blend them in to our OW?

Are you talking about the original submaps, or custom submaps that you create? If you're talking about custom, that is fine (unless you just plan on pasting all 6 into your main map). If you're talking about original, then yes, but you will be docked creativity marks.

Also, liking these overworlds so far guys.
Heh, Lunatic Wolf, your overworld is making some drama between the other competitors. :O

This will be interesting...

...But wait, if we're doing the main map category, we can still use submaps? \:|

My guns are bigger. *shot to death*

Anyway, speaking of my guns...



I wonder how many gun puns I can make in this one post? I think I'll shoot for at least *abruptly killed in the most brutal way possible*
