Pixel Art / [C&C] tactical adventure game art, 12x12 pixels, 9 colors
« on: May 01, 2015, 09:18:12 pm »
I wanted to be able to produce art for my game quickly, so I figured that the fewer pixels and colors I have, the faster it should go.
The game play will be very similar to Alien Star Menace, but with an open world, quest items, and NPCs.
First off, the heroes. Original and upgraded form on the same line. The gray guy is a shark man.
here's a mockup
and here is a swamp mockup
a house
and here are my colors
Thanks for any advice or edits!

Pixel Art / just starting out, here are my first three tiles (C+C please!)
« on: October 25, 2010, 06:07:31 pm »
I have a grass tile, a rock tile, and a weed tile. There are absolutely no restrictions because this is for a PC game that I am making. I decided to go with pixel art because I believe that it suits my nature. The tiles are your standard 2:1 isometric (diametric actually). I decided to go with 44 wide and 21 tall because it felt like the right compromise between detail and tractability. Everything in the game will be scaled up 3x so the tiles will be 132 by 63.
I have had a lot of trouble making grass tiles over the ages and I have never had one that I was satisfied with. There is a little bit of color shifting, something that I learned about reading the archives on this forum. I'm actually kind of happy with this one, but I am quite open to feedback of course. I would love to be able to make it move with the wind in various directions, because my game will feature wind that influences the spread of fire. I might just have to show the wind by the movements of clouds and blowing leaves.
This is meant to be a rock. I'm not too happy with the color shifting here. I think that the outline is decent, dark enough that the rock has definition, but not dark enough that it becomes part of the foreground. I am probably going to put black outlines around the characters and use dark colored outlines for significant terrain features.
This is my best attempt at a plant. I wanted to do a bush or a flower but it came out as a leafy thing, with a reddish hue on the upper surface of the leaves. It is pretty horrible but I have to admit that it is the best plant that I have ever made.
So here is a mockup. The two characters are to show proportions only. They are not my work at all. I saw that you have pretty strict rules here so I went over them with some pixels to try to obscure them. If this is still unacceptable just tell me and I will take it down.
Thanks for reading. If you have any criticism please give it. I would really like to improve.
