Well spotted, Surt. The game's theme is playing with on old 80's and 90's sci-fi/action movie tropes. We're calling him Steak Blisterin for the time being. I like Escape from New Pork, though. I hadn't thought of that one.  |

I disagree. The pig's ship is actually very consistent. The problem is that this perspective gives an impression that the pig is positioned at a 90 degree angle to the cars while we know that it will move parallelly to them. Anyway I like that style, the cars remind me of old Cartoon Network style (like Dexter, Cow and Chicken etc.)  |

Thanks Spooky & NNWW. Really happy to hear you like it. Yeah, the issue with the pig's ship is the perspective. I think the quick fix is to flip the cars and change the lighting on the pig's ship so they all match up a little better. Thanks for the input.

Awesome work! Duke Snak'em? But surt's "Escape from New-Pork" is pretty good.
New pixels:  If you want to zoom just click it. |

Thanks a lot. Maybe we'll call it Duke Snak'em if the game ends up in development hell for the next 10 years  Stranger things have happened... |

Honestly I don't see pigsie-flyer as an issue. Redrawing assets instead of just mirroring them will take too much work. What I'd like to see is more skin-shading, especially on the piggy. He is way too flat.

I already want to play this game. Especially with the pig pilots. |

DoomCube I Love it. So much that I had a go at fixing the perspective issue (unfortunately the lemon colours do work better using less of the lighter tone in proportion to the darker tone and I was too lazy to fix that):
Thanks Lee. I'm delighted to hear you like the art so much. I really appreciate you taking the time to try and help me solve this small problem. Your solution is quite good and I understand what you mean about the lemon shading. This was the issue I was running into earlier when I was trying to change the lighting on the pig's hover bike (hog?). Here is my own solution which I think suits my needs better over all. I flipped the cars and changed the colours to take the electric lemon out of the bike which helped a lot. Now it should fit together a little better. Let me know what you guys think.  Cheers, Paul |

You're right about the mirroring, Phoenix. I think at this stage redrawing some assets is not too much of a big task, though. It may be worth the pay off if I take the extra time. |

Hi! First post, i'm the typical software engineer trying to chase the dream of creating their own legendary platformer - in the mid of 10h-day work and other nerdy stuff.  This is a precarious attempt to make something "fast-to-make-good-to-look" but i don't feel really good with it - i think it's too much noisy. |

@Jamsus Yep, that's very noisy. You should typically try to avoid single isolated pixels, except when patterning or highlighting. Here's a simple figure I drew this morning, and its construction sequence.   |

Lots of experienced artists around! I am still getting the hang of the skill myself.  A tank meant for practice! |

Thx. I find at this low resolution dark outlines should be used sparingly. Also your lighting needed some work to communicate the 3d form a little better.

Thank you! I'v tried something else for a game-idea mockup! Didn't like the Yellow Guy but i'm pretty ok with the general style  |
