Above pic is a pixel art for a game I'm working on. I'm pretty new to pixel art and this has been my first one. The game will feature no more than 3 colors on a 320x200 screen size (for the scrolling). I would like some c&c please, thanks ;)

hey.

I reccomend you use either a side view or a 3/4 view - not side view body, 3/4 view head. Side view is easier.
similarly, use either black outlines or white outlines, not both.

the grey you're using is hard to pick out from the white.

Off-topic, but, don't forget to make your character pop out from the scenery in your game, with only 3 colors that may become somewhat of a challenge. Look at games from the original version of the Gameboy, for reference.
