Wow! That logo looks leagues better than my mock up! I'm a little torn on 'The Legendary Star Medal' and 'Legend of the Star Medal' too. =/

Man, that's fantastic, Silvuh! It looks so authentic!

Although, is it The Legendary Star Medal, or Legend of the Star Medal?

I checked before. It's "The Legendary Star Medal" for sure.

[Silvuh]

"Legend of the Star Medal" would be スターメダルの伝説. The phrase before の modifies the phrase after it.

The wings on the vector graphic are a little redder in spots than the original, but otherwise the colors were taken from the original graphic. For the GBA version there, I saved the palette from the original graphic image and applied it while exporting this graphic, so those are the same 113 colors from the original.

Hm... Just noticed that I forgot to take off some of the shadow on the subtitle on top of the star. I had noticed later that the shadow for the title was shallower on top of the star but forgot to check if the subtitle did the same thing. And now I'm seeing that the subtitle shadow only goes straight down, not down and slightly to the right like the title text. Will be fixing those. Also thinking about changing the S. I did it like that because the original graphic uses all straight lines ... but I looked at ka64's drawing again and, yeah, that S looks better. Going to just try that now ... And just noticed the deeper shadow got offset from the rest of the text ... While I'm at it, I'll also redo the outermost outline of the title text, because I did that one first before thinking of a better way to do it for the subtitle and then didn't go back to redo the title text one... What would have been easy is putting another outline on the text, but strokes don't go around drop shadows, so copying the text layer and offsetting it to make a shadow rather than using the effect works, and then the two can be added together and get another stroke placed around that, but doing so creates a concave corners which I just realized can be fixed by simply removing those anchor points, so I'll fix those in the subtitle ... and halfway into fixing the subtitle corners, I remembered I needed to change the drop shadow position first, so, whoops, some wasted time there. ...

... Alright. Updated the .pdf file. It's still at the same link. http://www.mediafire.com/view/uu7ckya08utcan6/klonoa-heroes-title.pdf Any other suggestions welcome~

Here's one about Pango. It'll be the last one, unless you guys don't mind. I know it's not actually helping, but I still want to contribute in some way, you know? I just hope it's not seen as topic clutter...



By the way, all of these are how I interpret the way Klonoa sees the friends he has and makes throughout the entirety of Klonoa Heroes. Of course, it's up to you if you like my interpretation or would rather see it adjusted to a different attitude.

so....how did you guys like them? ^_^

I tried doing a mock-up of a conversation. Everything else was easy to recreate, but trying to manually shadow the text as how it appears in the game is very tricky. I don't think I did a very good job at all, although I was trying my best:



If a font with the English alphabet were to be injected into the rom, would it need to be modified to have shadows for each letter, number, and symbol?

Yes. And it's not so tricky at all.
In fact, it depends on what program you use; MSPaint in WIN7 is okay for me.
800% zoom and grid lines is really helpful when doing pixel arts.

[the_darai]

Most likely we'd have to replace the japanese font with the corresponding English fonts, though there's still much tweaking in that.

Also there's plenty of programs to use for pixel art, but yes MSpaint suffices. You could even use Krita and drastically lower DPI and use gridlines, but that's my preference.

Hey darai did you get to see my cover art for the game
