An Image loader,
Just realised what lossy format meant;
To curious nerds, those make your image uglier for you
How nice!

Uglier, and smaller. Everything comes at a price, compression is no exception. I've spent many a time specifically optimizing compression levels for my images to balance out the loss of quality with the eventual file size. But that's just a part of web development. You've got to constantly cut corners on file sizes wherever you can. It's always better for a page to load faster. |

I've always been afraid to try pixel art, but today I took a crack at it. What do you guys think?
Looking solid! Keep working at it and practicing.  I think that some of them could be a little simpler, but I like the feel. |

I like it! I added in a 'breaking away' animation after walking over damaged tiles. Everything else is largely placeholder art (The actual game will take place exclusively in buildings... Don't ask. I got carried away). I also added the 'sliding into holes' effect similar to classic Zelda games, proper respawning, and a nice fade in/out for restarting levels. All in all, it's coming along nicely, and I'm pretty happy with it. Especially considering this will be my most ambitious project yet.  |

what about animating? Thanks! The feet are all sideways, that might be it. I really don't know where to start for sprite animation other than manually drawing every frame and I don't know when (if ever) I'll have the time for that. Looking solid! Keep working at it and practicing. I think that some of them could be a little simpler, but I like the feel. Thanks for the advice. Which ones do you think could be simpler? The fountain perhaps? |

Thanks! And that's pretty sweet! I'd love to be able to code. :X |

I might be down for a collab sometime. But I think that's as close as we could get to swapping.

Hi, I'm Neeko, just another programmer who can't create art to save his life! I've started working to correct that lately. I'm starting with small super lo-fi. No shading, hue, dithering or any of the more advanced pixel techniques. Here's a 20x24 super lo-fi demon. Idle (enlarged in Paint.NET)  Running (sorry for low quality, using a free online GIF maker)  I thought it would be interesting (and hilarious) to post my progress and hopefully we can all see a gradual increase in skill and quality. |
