Drew this for a friend for Christmas! It features all of her families favourite Pokémon. Her's is Appletun, her husband's is Jirachi, their kiddo's is Falinks, and they just had a baby which I represented with the egg :) It was nice to go at this all loosey […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

A scene of Appletun the Pokémon curled up around an egg that's beginning to hatch. Jirachi floats to the right observing the egg hatching and a lone little Falinks doddles around nearby. The background is a desaturated red and the top of the image reads "Merry Crimins!"

Did this silly doodle after watching my brother do a challenge run of Legends ZA over at www.twitch.tv/duriyu James was one of the first pokemon he caught and one of the only 3 that made it to the final battle of the game. He gave his life in that battle […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

My entry for the GB Pixel Art Jam2025! The theme was "Balance" with a constraint of 1-bit art and 192 unique tiles (so that it can display on original Gameboy hardware). When I read the theme this year was Balance, one of my first thoughts was of the Ocean and […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

Pixel Daily Sept. 29: Horror 16x16px GB Studio Palette This is my usual reaction to horror. Surprisingly easy to convert an emoji to a GB sprite, almost like they were designed to be legible at a small size :P #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GBStudio #GameBoy #Horror #Emoji #ClumsyArt

Gameboy style sprite of the "Scream" emoji.

Pixel Daily Sept. 15: Eucalyptus 16x16px GB Studio Palette Attempted to do a Gameboy sprite of the Pokémon Komala, but wouldn't you know it, at this low res it just looks like a Koala. #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GBStudio #GameBoy #Eucalyptus #Koala #Komala #pokemon #ClumsyArt

Gameboy style sprite of a Koala holding a log.

Pixel Daily Sept. 10: Stage 16x16px GB Studio Palette Drawing nothing but blanks this morning, so I attempted to draw an entire stage in a single 16x16 sprite. Wcgw? Hopefully it reads okay? #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GBStudio #GameBoy #stage #ClumsyArt

GameBoy style sprite of a stage. Arguably too small res.

Kiddo has started school now and as such I'm hoping to stream more regularly. So if you like indie games, Pokémon, or Fire Emblem, come on by! I've also been trying out GB Studio on stream, so if you'd like to see me make a GameBoy game, I'd love the company! Below is my new schedule :) […]

In my continuing hyperfixation on Gameboy and DMG, I've completely redesigned my stream overlay! I've attempted making my own overlays in the past and they were quite frankly terrible. But I'm very proud of this one! It's slightly animated too, but I know […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

My new stream overlay made to look like it belongs on a Gameboy. It has a screen for the game I'm playing, a chat box, some labels for the newest follow, top cheer, and new sub, and finally a little golem sprite in the corner.

ClumsyGolem @clumsygolem.mstdn.games.ap.brid.gy · 17/08/2025

This is by far the biggest pixel art piece I've ever done. I normally like to stick to very low res and mostly sprite work, but for some reason I decided to make this "totally not a gameboyTM" have an accurate screen size. And why not do it in the GB Studio DMG […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

Gameboy style pixel art of a gameboy knockoff. Instead of reading "Nintendo GAME BOY TM" on the front, it says "ClumsyGolem GAME DAD TM". The system is clearly on and the screen reads "PAUSED".

@jsstaedtler I always forget it looks better if I just take a snip xP

Same as above but a snip of the Aseprite program to get a better sense of how the character would look in game.

ClumsyGolem @clumsygolem.mstdn.games.ap.brid.gy · 16/07/2025

@jsstaedtler I'm not confident enough in my illustration abilities yet to draw Ceilidh, but here's an NES style sprite of her I whipped up ^^ Hope you like it! Sorry your brain hates you atm 🫂 (Pose taken from Din in The legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons.)

NES style sprite of a red haired girl in a cutesy pose with one arm in the air and standing on one foot.

Pixel Daily July 4: Still 16x16px GB Studio Palette 15 mins Still was a fun prompt, gave me lots of ideas, but I settled on trying to create a weathered old inukshuk :) #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GBStudio #aseprite #still #inukshuk

A gameboy style sprite of a weathered inukshuk.

Pixel Daily: Explosion 16x16px GB Studio Palette 15 mins EKU-SPLOOOOO-SION!!!! Immediately thought of Megumin from Konosuba, so here's a quick rendition of her staff! The particle effects would probably look a lot better if I animated them, but oh well :P […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

A gameboy style sprite of a magical staff wielded by the character Megumin. It is depicted at an angle, with a gem set in the top and strange particle effects surrounding it.

Pixel Daily: Astrology 16x16px GB Studio Palette 15 mins I'm not much of an astrology person, so I just looked up my sign, and upon seeing that it was two fish, immediately thought of the ocean and moon spirits (Tui and La) from Avatar the Last Airbender. So […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

GameBoy style sprite of two fish swimming in a circle coloured such that they appear to form an almost yin-yang symbol.

Pixel Daily: Angel 16x16px GB Studio Palette Futzed around way too much on this one, might have to start setting a time limit. But I'm happy with the result for the most part :) #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GameBoy #GBStudio #aseprite #angel

Gameboy style sprite of a robed angel with wings and a shining halo. Their head could be read as a giant eye or perhaps a hooded figure. I personally lean towards hooded figure, but giant eye definitely still works.

ClumsyGolem @clumsygolem.mstdn.games.ap.brid.gy · 15/06/2025

@TheZeldaZone crystal clear has been pretty neat, I've been soul linking it with my brother :P It's a sorta open world gen 2. He has also said that Emerald Seaglass is the best ROMhack he's ever played, looking forward to trying it myself :)

Today's pixel daily "Wild West" Attempted to make a Gameboy style pair of smoking pistols and a cowboy. The cowboy almost reads like a skull to me, but it was intended to be facial hair. #PixelArt #pixel_dailies @pixel_dailies #GameBoy #GBStudio #aseprite #WildWest

GameBoy style pixel art of a man with facial hair and a cowboy hat.

Gameboy style sprite of a pair of crossed smoking pistols.
