youd be surprised at the graphics the nes could produce. if done properly. but it does seem a tad on the high end.

Nah just a game in the style of nes games.
I didn't take into account all the quirks of the nes. But it uses the NES color palette and resolution. I'm also limiting myself to 12 colors on the screen at once which is the most I've seen in all the nes screenshots I've studied.
The NES had some pretty impressive looking games later in its lifespan though:

Really cool! I love seeing sprites and pixel work done in the restrictions of an old system. If you don't know if it already, check out the Pixelation boards, they hold a lot of challenges and activities that give you tricky restrictions to work with. Old VGA palette is very popular around there at the moment, some people just use the palette, some also use the 2x1 wide pixels and some even try to account for system restrictions like only x amount of colours on screen and only x amount of colours within each tile on that screen.

Wow, that's really good! Is this for a compo or just good clean retro fun?

yeah I didn't think it was a real Nes game because of how the graphics overlap when the Nes can't do that because it only has one layer.
I dunno about the cutesy look though. The graphics are pretty good and all, it just doesn't seem right for The Dark Knight.

lol yeah the NES cant do that..
Its not only the number of colors on the screen, its also 4 colors per tile.
a tile is 8x8 pixels. so a sprite shouldnt have more than 4 colors. Oh, and one of those colors is transparent. So its actually just 3.
But still, it looks nice. Im just saying to be nitpicky
