It could use some AA, Also the shading needs a lot more contrast on the green. But don't request, We will gladly help you. Also that is the weirdest set up sheet I have ever seen. Make it smaller, and group it differently.

I'm sorry but what is 'AA'?

I haven't been sprite-ing for very long. As for the setup, it was mostly a last minute thing....

These blasts from your sheet are pillowshaded. And pillowshading is terrible. Fix this[Image: pillowshadingisbadhy2.png]

Those blasts were not intended to have a light shine on them. I used the different colors to act like a gradient. But I clearly need more colors to make it look less, pillow shaded....

More colors makes it more pillowshaded. You should not use gradients. Make the blast look like a blast, right now it looks like a pillowshaded hexagon.
