Pixel Art / 'Boring' Buttons - they look ok?
« on: September 09, 2013, 09:03:57 am »
Hey guys,
Haven't been on the forums for a little bit, busy working on the game with my SO - at the moment I'm working on 'simple' buttons for the Pause Menu, and I say 'simple' because they have been anything but. I've gone through a few variations, and this is the one I like the most so far:
This the button raised up, and I'm working on a "pressed down" version (trying to go for a rounded type button look) - have I hit it? Or far from the mark?
Also, any suggestions on how I'd go about getting the pushed down/indented look? Having some serious issues getting something that even looks remotely crap, let alone anything that looks decent enough to show.
The type face will certainly change to my own font for the game - suggestions there most welcome as well.
I think I've got a case of the jaggies too, trying to smooth them out as I speak.
