@ Adam: I agree with you, I perfer eyes with out shine if it's small, however with this sprite it doesn't really go well as it starts to look a part of the shading.
@ Pulsecode: The old gems were not sprited by me, I ripped them from a game called High Sea Havoc. I've change the HUD so it would fit more this style.

What?
That isn't better at all. Of course this is just my opinion but... ok they look good but your older graphics look better. They just do. The new ones are flat and just less detailed in general.
Although your old main character did look a little weird. Like an anorexic Big the cat lol. Yeah the new character is better but the whole minimalistic approach is not an improvement whatsoever.
@Poobical: Fair enough! I didn't mean the actual gems though! I meant the counter style. The actual numbers themselves. The new ones just look a bit rough.
