THe axe and sword in the background (left side of the first screenshot) still look pretty "unreal", so does the waterskin lying in the grass in one of the lower ones.

What I liked a lot was the torch including the fire, flower and tree (shadow!) and the rat (?) - my girlfriend would probably say "can I have one"?

Also, the moon is a very nice touch - very imposing.

my favorite is the lantern that casts a shadow.. if that comment does not illustrate why it's my favorite.. take a moment how light works..

When a light bulb is on.. does it cast a shadow of itself on the wall?

Cow: Think you might have a good point there! :)

The items that look unreal / flat will be fixed.

It's looking very good, but I agree with the points made above.

Here's a few other points.

What's the strange swirly thing in the floor on the screenshot with the sandy coloured walls and the apple?

How are the shadows calculated? They don't seem consistent with the light sources.

I know you defended it before, but I really think you should remove the lens flare in the daylight shot -- it's totally unconvincing, and as lens-flare only exists in glass lenses, and this is supposed to be the view the party sees, it's also completely wrong!

A: Are you talking about the reflection on the floor? I admit it doesnt look too good in the screenshot but its effective when playing

A: Though you dont really get lense flare you do get blinded the more you look at the sun so maybe we could remove the lens flare images and just leave the effects :)

Aah, I see -- I thought it might be a reflection, but wasn't sure.

By the way, I haven't forgotten about your key graphics request, just haven't had a lot of time recently. I can do them next week.
