Water...! Five frame loop. Migraine-inducing nightmare to draw, massive regrets halfway through. Next: rivers (and associated features), lakes?, and some impassable rocky coast/ocean tiles.

Had so much fun working on this character. Over 100 state animations and variations, I've finally released the first version of my character template. #aseprite #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

I just finished the initial version of my character template. Which do you prefer for prototyping: colored or monochrome? #aseprite #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

Today I learned that Godot can generate an atlas out of individual .png's automatically! This is .,~amazing~,. for the performance of 2D games with many sprites, because the draw calls to the GPU can be batched into a single draw call if the sprites reference the same texture. #godotengine

Drupes in the first shot reminded me of the first artwork I ever signed as Naomi Manzanita, Mount Tamalpais State Park, CA

Here’s a different approach I used for animating fire, with a new art style. You can also achieve this effect in Adobe After Effects. ✏️: #aseprite #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

Some areas in Paper Mario feature a rim lighting effect that is achieved in a manner that is extremely simple for the surprisingly effective results it produces, being simply shifting around a shadow copy of the sprite.

The rim lighting effect in Paper Mario is created in an extremely simple manner.
[the sprites are taken, copied, recolored black, then the black version is offset, made transparent, and trimmed to the original sprite]
Note how this coincidentally results in a realistic shadow of the cap on Mario's face because the shadow is just the brim recolored black

This is how I gave him short pants. That was the initial idea, but a silly idea popped up 😅 I’ll try it next time once I learn how to draw female characters. #aseprite #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #LiveDraw
