I used images from The Swapper website for the background and the screenshots on the back. I got the logo from there as well.
The font is Geo Sans Light, the same font used in the game.
Text blurbs came from the website.
The Swapper Box Cover Comments
Comment on yo1dog's The Swapper Box Art / Cover.
It really is a job that lack polish, that is, is quite poor. no offense, but you used a simple background and official game seen many times. now I wonder Where are the logos, colors and own designs? these screenshots and seen way too eh, you could have chosen to capture some own images and add some effect because it is simple and somewhat boring. the source is not at all friendly matches and not all art, it is really very simple. Lose essence. Playing with colors, something novel itself and would not bad.

I'm not a designer or artist of any kind. Not trying to be one. This is about as good as it gets from me :)
I didn't understand most of what you said. That may be because of the engrish or because I don't know basic design concepts. I don't play with colors because I don't know how to make a decent palette. I figure it's better to keep it simple but boring than colorful but messy.
These covers are for a project I am working on. I am backing up my game library onto disks and I wanted some cover art to go on the cases; Something more than just the title of the game. If I can find a decent version of the retail cover, I use that. If not, I try and find a decent custom one someone made. If I can't find that, I make my own. So these covers don't come from a desire to create art.
All the same, it's kinda fun. I hope to improve but I don't care enough to study design so my work will look unpolished and unprofessional. I don't spend much time on these. That said, if you can provide specific examples of how I can improve this cover, I would appreciate the feedback.
