How did you learn to make pixel art/tiles so well? I'm pretty new to the gamedev industry, and work with Unity. I'm not very good at coding, and am even worse at art.


Any tutorial you used in particular?

As everyone will tell you, practice makes the master. But a beginner have to learn somewhere. So here are 2 good tutorials: Derek Yu's Pixel Art Tutorial and PixelJoint's Tutorial

After you learn the basics, you are by yourself. Study a lot of pixel art pieces and make your own pieces. Also, you can ask for feedback on the Creative/Art subforum.

Also, Ben! Are you planning to make an alpha or beta one day? Because you will need it soon or later. Or you are already doing that?

(and what do you use for doing all your gif? I can only make crappy video with OBS)

Use Gifcam, it's very good, free and superlight.

Just look what I found today!

Looking good, Eigenbom :D

Unfortunately Photoshop is expensive to me. Even if the lowest price is $10/month, I don't want to pay for it forever.

Great to know your progress

But I have to admit that I'm waiting for new characters xD Although creating the enemies seems a good way to define the character design.

I still don't upgrade my OS to WIN10, so I still didn't try KI. But I plan to play it, because looks awesome, fast, complex and for the old memory. I have the SNES version, after all :D

I have good old memories with Descent, Hexen, Heretic, Star Wars Dark Forces, Alien Trilogy and Medal of Honor 2: Underground.

To me, those were good games.

Wait, what!? There is a Assassin Creed Movie?! No way, I haven't heard of it!

Lately I'm listening some songs from Foster The People.

Right now, Speedy Speed Boy by Marco Polo (Initial D Soundtrack) :D

I made this one for a client, using an style already defined.

Available for more work!

Portfolio updated.

That illustration is really awesome! Also, how far are you with the other characters?

3rd party recording programs are obsolete, all modern video cards come with a hardware solution now which will either be called Shadowplay if you're nVidia or Raptyr if you're AMD/ATI

Use those.

Nice one. I will keep in mind when I need it.

As always, Technoviking is amazing.

It's nice to see some progress in this game.

Also, that attack from the second phase can be evaded, right?

I'm gonna try Crypt of the Necrodancer, now that is free on Steam until Saturday.

I'm in love with Linkle as first sight and everybody is hyped for Cloud in SSB.

Thanks god Fed Force didn't appears there too.

The Yelling Man xD

MoonMan is already a well known game, so it will be a bit hard to change the name. But it's your game anyway. You can do whatever you want to do with it.

Let's say some names:

Moontopia
Men of the Moon
Moon's Tale
Journey to the Moon
Moon's Legend
MoonLand
