1. There's no dead guy in the cave. (Mark Hamill, is that you?)

2. The cave has a green and brown floor, not pink and brown.

3. Roger enters the cave from the left, not from the right.

I hope I'm right! *crosses fingers*

All correct.

But there's two minor things still.

Will see if NBS wants to take a stab, before I reveal.

Let's see...

The dead body was added, right? Probably from the ship in the beginning.

The pink floor.

Is the creature supposed to be red?

I don't think "throw water" is something you are supposed to do here. I think that's from the dragon in KQ1.

- Dead body was added from the ship (recolored his hair blond, as a joke, since that is what Roger eventually turned into)
- Creature is red...
- Throw water I think works - because it's the dehydrated water

But the creature's red is "reversed" - the dark and light reds were exchanged.
There's also a segment where I turned the sky into sand in the corner.

I tried to be tricky with the pink floor due to the other cave...



My version...



And the original....

That's pretty clever.

There's just a few things wrong...

As always ye can click the image to get a close up.

Hmm ... let's see.

- The robot head is red; it should be purple.

- The purple "ladder thing" next to the head is purple; it should be red.

- The little "up-and-down arrow" thing on the head is pink. It should be green.

- The little "pyramid" thing behind Roger is purple; it should be green.

- The lights on the far wall are gray. They should be blue.

And that's all!

OK - some of those should be pretty easy to spot. But the 4th thing you spotted, hard to believe you caught that!

That said - there's one very, very, very, very small detail you missed. Two of them really.

And you may need to click to see the larger version to notice it.

Which is why I said very, very, very, very small detail.

Because it's small.

Tricky.

I'm pretty sure the coloring of the robot head is wrong, but I'm not sure how. I don't think the red on the sides of the helmet is right.

I don't think the mounds in the background are supposed to be brown.

Unfortunately, that's all I have.

- The robot head color is incorrect
- As are the side "ears" I guess you could say
- As is the "diamond" on it's head
- The pyramid piece is incorrectly colored
- The backwall is dark blue, not grey
- Roger's eye color is incorrect
- The eyes inside of the busted eye of the robot (green eyes) are not a part of the game

The actual screenshot:


Compared to my edit...

Wow. OK, it would take a genius with the eyes of an owl to figure out that Roger's eye colour is wrong, even with the screenshots.

Roger's eyes are kind-of darkish-blue. In your screenshot, Roger's eyes are ... a darker blue.

Ready for another?

I don't know how you put these out so quickly.

Easy one. The car crashed in the building is Lonny West from PQ1.

That green circle doesn't look right. I think it should be the Sierra logo.

Unfortunately, that's all I have.

It's easy to throw these together because of the Sierra Chest having these screenshots.

I pull them into Paint Shop Pro - reduce color down to 16 (in these cases) so that my pallet matches whatever is available. And color away! And put people into sometimes!

Because you are right about the first thing... In the original screenshot there is what looks to be a hole there... so I thought that was fitting.
As for the second guess, that was untouched. I think it's supposed to be the Sierra logo as much as they could get it.

There are still 4 other minor things.

Which version of PSP do you use? I started working with PSP 7 back in the early 2000s, and though I've bought some of the newer versions off eBay over the years (8.1, 9.0 & X), I still use 7.04 from 2001.

Hah! I started on PSP...6, I believe. Got 7 and was on 7 forever and a day.

But for the last... what? 5 or 10 years, lol (how long as it been?) - I've been using 8.10 now.

EDIT: 20 years. Ugh. Just saw copyright was 2003 in the help and about. And I got it new.

Where the Hades has time gone...
