Rather than brighten the colors I upped the contrast between them. I have a habit of clinging to de-saturated colors so I tried upping the saturation as well.



I also tried making his pose more interesting, as well as slimming his arm out a bit.

Not sure how to get his left arm in the back to look right. I'm also not 100% on the color scheme.

I'll take another look at the run animation soon as well

I'm creating an exploration platformer game and am a bit over my head with the art work. I'm not too good at pixel art yet but I've created a background for a dark cave that I like quite a bit


I've been trying for awhile now and I can't come up with a good way for the platforms to look. I know where I want them to be but nothing I've tried has looked right so far.

This is the attempt I liked the best so far. I only finished the middle platform- the rest still being in "blob form",. but it looks weird how the walkable terrain is just kind of floating there, I also don't think it looks very good anyway.


Does anyone here have any suggestions either for how i could fix the above image or for a better way to add the walkable terrain to this room that looks a bit more natural?

I like for the walkable terrain in this game to look "organic" I guess. Like it is a part of the background rather than floating ontop of it, here is another area of the game which I think demonstrates what I mean


Honestly this image could use some improvement, but I'm content with it for this project.


Thanks in advance
