Well... Who wants new graphics for the players?

You forget an option.
Choosing player's character or theme. Like in "Emerald Mine CD32".
This is the best solution, I think.

What do you mean ?

I mean that the Gamer/Person can choose the graphic's for the player,
before he starts playing.
And may be he can make his own graphic for the player.
Like it works fine in the amiga game "Emerald Mine CD32".

Ok, so what is the option I am missing ?

The missing option is:
Should the graphic of the player chooseable by the Gamer

Well, I definitely think that the current player graphics are nice, about like the quality of the graphics of the other elements. And they fit together nicely. And we're used to them that way.

I couldn't say whether or not the graphics should be changed unless I saw the new graphics. Personally, I can't imagine any better player graphics than the current ones that would fit.

I'd like to be able to choose the graphics.
It would be nice if you could use different kinds of player, like an animal or a robot/machine.

Btw, as for the above, I'd like also *the* further option for this poll

In Rocks 'n' Diamonds 3.2.0, you will be able to choose the artwork of the player to match any other element. So you could set the player artwork to be a spaceship.
The disadvantage is that then the player makes spaceship noise all the time. The solution is to tell the player to use the artwork of a custom element that uses only the graphic of a spaceship.

Nice to read that Thank you!

Nice to hear that the option to switch between player graphics will be available in version 3.2.0! And some extra player graphics would be nice. But only additional graphics and NOT replaced graphics. What most people forget is that the power of the game lies in its classicness. If you take away the nostalgic (yes, RnD has nearly become a legend...) elements from a game and modernise it, the game will become worthless. It's just what people are used to.

I think Martijn is right and it would be nice to have additional graphics.
(BTW:Could a moderator add this option to the poll :
Should the graphic of the player chooseable by the Gamer)

Option added.
