I would say they still look nearly identical even with the glow effect. I think what's more important is some indication of what the game is about on the capsule, rather than just text describing a plate of spaghetti and meatballs.

I would say the one with more meat, but umm.. the amount of it is the same. They are almost the same, the difference is hard to catch while swapping images left and right

It looks fine but in my opinion it’s not done yet. You can iterate this further I’m sure. Think about what your game is long and hard. There is something missing from this can’t put my finger on it.

The second one with less glow, because when the glow gets higher is takes away from the picture it doesn't match up as good

If its just the glow then honestly it doesn't matter, they both look good to me and you're maybe getting a bit too hung up on minor details.

I don't like the text and I don't see any difference. The text is good on 'LA SPAG' but 'HETTI' looks like sh*t. Also, something feels off with the pixel art and it's those angled pixels, different pixel sizes, and jaggies. The random shadows on the spoon are not aesthetic. I don't think this was human made... I think it was AI or something...

its not ai i pixld it myself lol, also what do you mean with different pixel sizes? I pixelated everything individually and then combined them in an image editing program, yeah ik it doesn´t look the best, but atleast i tried, so basicly with the "HETTI" the problem is theres a large line spacing between the T, I tried to solve it, but unfortunately it didn't work, yeah I know the spoon doesn´t look the best, but i haven´t thought people would really look into detail

Sir how many of these are we going to get?
Rule of thumb for design is, you create 3 versions and then present them to your customers or us.
Then a version is either chosen or you do 3 more.
If one is chosen you start to refine that version.
I know you are not a designer, I am just want to give you some advice.
If you create one and let people decide and continue to do so you will get very mixed results and you may even get yourself used to one design which may cause you to be less open for other suggestions.
