My main goal was to recreate the game earthbound (mother 2) using only graphics from the mother series. For the most part I have accomplished that. I tried to keep everything as 'earthboundy' as possible, but some things had to be duplicated, blurred, filled in from scratch, etc. If you are a fan of the earthbound game this is in my opinion a must download. I've put tons of work into this and it is something I am absolutely compelled to finish, if there are any issues or things you want to see in the final pack let me know.

I am currently refining this pack by selectively blurring textures with the cartoon filter on gimp [3, 0]. I'm also blowing 16x16 graphics up to 32x32; this combined with the filter adds more depth to the textures but makes it look less like the original., I have my qualms about it but I think it's worth it since I believe the original artists would have used more colors/larger resolutions if it were possible on the system . MOST textures (especially items) look way better like this but let me know what you think.
Additional Details
Fixed:
Finished lava, and water
Found suitable obsidian replacement
Made portal animation red and black (like gygas)
Replaced solid color grass with variable one
redid tree textures from scratch (to make them look more pixelated)
put in ray gun and created slingshot (still thinking of suitable replacement)
music was broken released a temporary fix I still need to replace all the new music.
