loved the no-outline artwork and the sense of scale that the boat implies. your growth is always amazing to see. keep it up man!

I really like the style of this! It's feel unique and inspired, yet also simple! However, a few "issues" are standing out to me; maybe intentional, maybe not. 1. The horizon line is curving in the wrong direction (should be down not up) 2. The smaller sandbar has a shadow on it, although nothing appears to be casting it 3. The logo in general, although cool in its own right, has a different style and clashes a bit to much with the rest of the screen Just a bit of constructive feedback, but really good progress!

I think this is a great change, it makes the island a lot more clear visually. And everything looks much smoother

Tip I learned from Flow Studio: always always always give your main menu some movement. Bobbing boats, ebbing waves, drifting clouds, etc will make it so much better!

The shape and shading of the island is so good, and the silhouette stands out, which makes it very recognizable. I think with the logo redone, it will be so impressive!

It looks great Ben. I like how you can feel how large the island feels. I also want to say I am inspired by your content to create my own content. Although my content type is quite different (I do podcasts), I am inspired by your lifestyle-type videos and the progress you make to experiment and have fun. Thank you. ☺

Looks great! I go back and forth on the logo, but I love the island, clouds and the fisheye lens effect. Possibly look at changing the boat to be on a bit of an angle, though - it seems a little static compared with how dynamic the rest of the image is. Actually, that might be a good way to approach the logo as well.

I really like it. However this island gives me vibes of being overgrown with foliage, trees, etc. That's not the feeling I get from the islands ingame so far. Would be dope tho, and probably is just a matter of plant assets. Keep it up!

Hi Ben, I gotta be honest, this one I'm not feeling so much. I like the small boat and the background in general but it looks like earth has become a ring the way the water is bending. The font to me is too small in general and especially the "D" is too large in height compared to the other letters. The "p" is missing the empty spot for me but that's just my opinion. You'll figure it out, I'm certain. Keep up the great work, your Devlogs, your passion and most of all your dedication is inspiring to me! Much love from Germany.

Looks dope! Maybe the "D" is a tiny bit wacky and the background/island could use a little extra detail, but I like the charm and simplicity of it. :)

It's been years since I took another pass at Dauphin's title screen. I've a long way to go on my journey learning pixel art but I'm very happy with this update!
Even though it's been a while since my last real "devlog", I'm happy to report I've made a ton of progress off-camera and am jumping into some exciting new feature work here soon. Excited to share those updates soon - thank you all as always for all the kind support of the channel!
