You won't find any clues there. The two artists did know each other though.

Haha! Me too but I figured Bronty wouldn't have run a contest with an answer so obvious that it ended with the first guess so I didn't say anything. XD

When I say "era", I just mean the time frame.   Could be any platform, I'm speaking more to the time period     Good question.

Super adventure island.

Does it have to be a specific title in a series? Or can I just say "adventure island" and cover them all?

btw I know nothing about art/artist. So total guess.

Sorry, incorrect.   (you will find super adventure island on the Greg Martin thread, though!)

Definitely have to mention a specific title   as we will be keeping track of gold stars .

Cagey strategy... letting more info come out before making your guess huh?

I was trying to put a good spin on it LOL  

Actually, that's not even it.   What I thought was that you were holding back your guess to guess on title instead of artist, when more info came out.  Never mind

Marc Ericksen? I see that he worked with Data East, and also created art for over 90 titles.

PS in the future, all guesses should be either a) title or b) artist but not both or they will be invalid.

I've got a bucketful of gold stars here I need to hand out after all!

There's some room for interpretation and I see why you said that as the catcher is off-centre, but no, that's not what I'm looking for.  Will explain why after.
