Pixel Art Character Design w/ Commentary!
Heya Pals, we're back with some more pixel art content for you. This time we're taking it easy with a live design session / timelapse with some commentary. This one took quite a while to get right, probably needed a bit more reference work to avoid all the pixel pushing in the middle of the process, but I'm happy with where the character ended up, for now!
Hope you find the process enjoyable and informative.
Thanks!

I built an editor to instantly teleport around my game's quests
zhlédnutí 11KPřed 14 dny
Hey pals! Just a short update from me! I filmed this last weekend but didn't have a chance to edit it as I've been out of town. Building this little quest editor to click through my game was a really fun break from the grant applications I've been doing and totally relieved a lot of stress that was building around managing quest content in Insignia. I'm actually working on a steam page right no...

    "You can't make decisions on something that doesn't exist" is something I really needed to hear. Has helped me so much just starting with some kind of blob, and then tweaking it. Great video as usual!

    This is like my dream job , I've been following you for almost a year now. It's ashame I'm not qualified yet or else I'd even move to Australia for this position lol. Keep up all the good work dude, I'm going to keep pushing and maybe one day I'll be good enough to accept an offer like this! I absolutely can't wait to play insignia 😁

  • @user-darkodbd
    @user-darkodbd Před 2 dny

    For me strict color palletes are not necessary anymore. They used it for older pc or console games because of the perfomance limitations they had. If you look on physical art color palletes are way bigger and not strict most of the time. For me the only important thing is the setting horror = dark / happy = high contrast / sad = low contrast just to name few examples.

  • @gorkamorka999
    @gorkamorka999 Před 3 dny

    The bright red hair is something so specific I'd keep that for the main character only. The red highlight on the conductor's hair makes it look like he's the main character's dad or they could be related. It's always fun to watch you do pixel art. Great video.

    i could not imagine how useful a dedicated tool for pixel art could be, i always thought gimp (which i prefer to photoshop especially for the selection tools when working with single pixels) can do everything thats needed.

  • @Triple8_Extras
    @Triple8_Extras Před 6 dny

    I've been getting really into pixel art (and hopefully game design) recently, so seeing tutorials and other videos like these really help. Ive always loved games that had level editors, like Portal 2 and Stealth Inc (1 & 2). Plus Minecraft since it's well...Minecraft. The first main experience I had with tilemaps was the PC version of Stealth Inc, since the editor has a separate menu for background tiles. Which has them displayed as a full screen of tiles to pick from (or highlight multiple).

  • @JesusW4y

    For the leaf particles to not look like poison, maybe try adding a soft border to each sprite of the animation.

    I really like him. Was a fan of the tiny hammer to give some contrast with how huge he was, but if this is the context we meet him it's the right call - he's definitely more conductor than jeweller. Also can we talk about the steam-mane on the train horse?! Outstanding.

  • @JeffHanke
    @JeffHanke Před 9 dny

    Like another comment said, I really think that chain should be connected to a pocket watch. Goes with the train/conductor/engineer vibe. You could even add in an (idle?) animation of him checking his pocket watch.

    • @AdamCYounis
      @AdamCYounis Před 9 dny

      That's an interesting thought! I'll consider it moving forward with the character design. Alternatively, what would you think about a whistle?

    So inspiring man. You might be the most talented and skilled pixel art artist ive ever seen. Just wanted to ask what color palette you use? The colors just seem wonderful and i want to test them! Goodluck and i will definitely buy Insignia when it drops. I recently got aseprite and ive been trying to learn pixel art and you have been my biggest inspiration. I thank you on behalf of all the people that youve inspired!

    • @butterstik

      He uses a custom palette! He has a video on how to make them yourself as well. Not sure how you'd get a hold of his though

  • @raycornwell2
