Creating Background Assets

Eath's Forest Adventure
A downloadable game for Windows

Hello All! 

Today, yesterday, I continued work on EFA (Eath's Forest Adventure), more specifically I started to work more on making the game more of my own! If you saw any of the other Devlog posts you would've noticed that while in a forest setting, it wasn't really in my style, or matching the style of the tree assets I was making. 

Thus I got to work, working on a proper background for the game, and so far I've got ... Something.

I wanted to design something that would repeat, like old school cartoon where the background would just cycle, a little homage to my area of study.  

Although the above image didn't quite work out the way I hoped when placed in the game, so I had to go back and make a few changes.

Now for implementing it into the game, I have two options, One is to make it solely a background image, another was to actually have it be the platform Eath walks on. I decided to try the latter first with this being the result: 

Not bad, honestly, but I may go back to having the platform separate from the background to avoid the strange seam look, only time will tell!
