I remember Zool being one of the very first games (alongside Prehistorik) I've played in my primary school during computer classes. I was blown away how colorful and super dynamic it was (sometimes even too dynamic).
I hope that I could catch this dynamic feeling in the banner. Enjoy! I present to you all the ZOOL Banner.

Those kind of banners are really hard because Zool has many memorable stages, especially the notorious music stage. Hard to cram all of that into a banner like that. Maybe in such cases they should be twice as wide or something

960 x 200 is all you get
Often the main challenge is to decide what you leave out.

 It's a challenge and fun at the same time. That's why I love to make those banners so much. Working on the next banner is already on the go.

I can already spoil, that the work on the ZOOL 2 banner has begun. I am also collecting screenshots for a game that I would very much like to make a banner of and it's a painful process.    I will be really happy when I'll be done with the game and can start having fun by deciding, which element to put on the banner. Which game? No spoilers!

There is no Gina, there is only...oh wait...this one is written differently, but still...
ZOOL 2 banner! As promised. I had lots of fun with little details. Still...it was hard to limit myself. I am gathering material for the next banner already.

Well... this one was the hardest yet. Because there just isn't much to work with
Terrible backgrounds (what few there are), weirdly chosen colors, sprites which are either too big or too small... ugh. So I had to get a little creative and picky.I present to you, a Tiertex masterpiece. Strider.  Pixel doubled version: https://imgur.com/YlLVEJQ And as a little bonus, the minimalist version. Because this is the part of the banner I like a lot, I got creative with drawing focus  I had to do a lot of cutting, pasting and filling in holes for this one. The logo was in front of "The master" so I had to get real creative with copy/pasting there to fill gaps and whatever version of Strider I downloaded had corrupted graphics, so I had to repair that by hand as much as I could... It's a shame, because if I had done a banner for the arcade version, it probably would have been a lot less scuffed. I'm not doing Strider 2. Just... no. |
