Post your pixel art

[Fisherson]

Yeah, I'll probably do. Like the style and want to make a game with it sometime.

In the meanwhile, made some faces.

Noice Red! Love the way you use NES to SNES level colors. Reminds me of a simpler time in gaming and the final result looks quite stunning.

OoO Those are very cool monochromatic designs you did there, Donut! Love the variety and sheer number of you packed into the sheet using such a small frame as the basis.
You're super skilled! Well done!

I'm trying myself the 100% custom (DQ slime for the lolz) for a little roguelike in Black & White, while waiting for a thing for Tower's Demo. The whale took me ages  :

This is my first real try to pixel something larger. It's going to be some title screen art.



Edit: Updated version with title

[Prpl_Mage]

Nope, stop doing it. Too good

I wanna play that so bad now and I don't even know what it is!   

[Donut]

Really cool Momeka! Me wants to play it as well.

[Momeka]

Thanks guys.

Started chopping it up and implementing it in rpg maker

Is that Rob Schneider?

[Momeka]

Oh man, it's uncanny, not sure how I did not see that before.

I love that style so much

Working on a new summoner weapon. Help me!




Also factoring in team allocation, so that you can convert neutral enemies to share resources, not damage each other, etc

Looks nice, Z. What kind of game is it?

There is so much noise it's unreal! How does it not crash from the sheer number of explosions and motion?

Thanks Momeka. It's gonna eventually be a Metroidvania/Smash Bros/Dota mix-up once the mini engine is made, but I want to take the focus away from stat grinding and put more focus into agency and problem-solving, where everything requires some form of skill and thought.

My final idea's to give the player an overwhelming arsenal of gadgets, but then make the game brutally difficult and see how it plays.

Hoho This is one of the reasons the development time is so long. I've spent ages creating a solid architecture, and
also ages optimizing the thing, using spatial hashers, quadtrees, nesting, memory recycling, etc. The game currently INSTANTLY switches maps,
even ones with thousands of enemies and huge open spaces I haven't stress-tested, but I can currently load 100 maps at once and insta-switch
between them all, and RAM usage never exceeds 100mb.

The game currently demands ~80mb RAM and slightly under the CPU req of Google Chrome, and never dips under 60fps or comes close,
but it will inevitably become less optimized as the game gets fleshed out more.


Here's a few thingies going on in the old proto:



Currently working on this bloody monstrosity:


He's gonna have a big flabby body and spindly creepy fingers eventually.

and a sneaky little mimic

I like how there's motion as they open as if it's tooth paste being squeezed out of a tube. It adds a dynamic feel to it, but what if the icons sparkled a little then slowly faded away? Or would that be too many frames? I know what engine you're using.
