This is a park that is supposed to be themed to different comics, and this first area was originally planned to be themed after a Swedish comicbook artist named Joakim Pirinen, but I started drifting away from the theme and it is now the inspired-by-Pirinen area of overall abstractness.
The two other themed areas in the park, one themed to Krazy Kat by George Herriman and one themed to V for Vendetta by Alan Moore and David Lloyd will follow the actual theme better. I'll come up with a name later.
All constructive critizism is appreciated. -

Looking good, a lot of custom scenery used. Perhaps use some green trees to add a touch of colour. -

Holy shit...you have no idea how scary that is!
The structures, forms and ornaments are all really great, but the colour (or lack of) is what makes this amazing.
I'm seriously freaked out
Great work! -

I really like this idea! It plays tricks with your eye. You think there's some kind of black and white filter over the screens.. but there isn't. You know what would look really cool... a very very colorful flyer or floorless turning in and out of those buildings. That would put a lot of focus on the flyer, and it would make for a neat effect.
Reminds me of that movie Pleasantville... -

Thanks for all the comments!
jon - I'm trying to keep this as black and white as possible. I know I'm using a lot of custom scenery, but the theme narrows down the scenery I can choose between pretty drasticlly.
super rich - See above. Also, it's not all about the scenery, but rather how it's used.
Weeman - I've done the best I could with only three colours. It looks better in the game.
leighx - Well, no.
Nitro-Genous - Thanks
mantis - Thanks!
Jacko - Hmm... Nice idea, but it might ruin the theme. I'll give it a try. -

So you trying to make somthing like a black and white movie park? Man so much black and white, I thought you altered the colors on purpose or somthing. So why only black, white, and gray?
Though i like the idea for this park. ^__^ -

I like it. Something different for a change. Just because it's different doesn't mean its bad, I like where its going. Great use of all the custom scenery.
Keep up the good work! -

I like this a lot! Especially after I realized that you hadn't just put a greyscale filter over a normal screen shot.
As mentioned, the B&W thing has been done before (I'm doing one too, but w/ brown and water), but you have an interesting take on it. I like the mix of traditional architectural forms with more abstract, geometric stuff you're doing with the 1/4 tiles.
At the bottom-left of the first screen there's a roof piece that looks like it's supposed to be a little higher -- it's not quite alligned. I suppose you could have done that on purpose, but it looks like you were pretty careful with the allignment on the rest of the roofing.
Keep it up!
