Here's a clip of Elsie in action in the Tundra stage! (need to get some better video editing software) I had a pretty broken elemental set up at this point in the run. :)

store.steampowered.com/app/1515570/... The Steam Sale on Elsie has less than 24 hours left! If you like #Megaman games and #indiegame action platformers, please give it a try! I figured I'd post some Ice World stuff! By the time the player gets here you see a robot battle aftermath!

Gifs look pretty good on here now! He can also get around the room pretty quick for a big slime ball! #pixelart #animation

store.steampowered.com/app/1515570/... Elsie is on sale for 8 more days! If you've ever wondered where this guy is from, it's Elsie! Obviously, we were inspired by #Megaman bosses in a lot of ways, but we gave La Baba Royale a lot of his own moves. :) #pixelart #animation

This is the Carcynus from @duelyst2.bsky.social, but it'll always be a yummy crab to me. :) Sprite design by @glauberkotaki.com

The Katastrophosaurus! I loved the detailed sprite design that @glauberkotaki.com did, and animating all these details was a ton of fun! I used every pixel of the canvas I could for the FXs on this one. :)

Some pixel art cars I made for the Stranger Things 3: The Game that came out a few years ago! These were a lot of fun to make, especially being able to wreck a few of these cars! The junkyard cars were some of my favorite to make. :)

Another Duelyst unit today: Coalfist, of the Songhai Empire! Was really glad that @glauberkotaki.com assigned me the sprite design the animate! This unit was really cool to make poses for! :) #pixelart #animation

Posting some more #pixelart #animation today! Chugs is dressed up as Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7 here, and using his Omnislash! You can see this animation play out when he gets a subscriber on his stream.

A non-pixel art post today! This is a #logo #illustration I made for a friend!

Flex Pixel Design @flexpixeldesign.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

Between the GIF and this video, does anyone have a preference for how animations are uploaded? Videos still look a bit better to me right now. This is the animated logo I made for Adam Cole for his Twitch channel, The Chugs! #pixelart, #animation

Flex Pixel Design @flexpixeldesign.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

I heard that GIFs are working better now, so I figured I'd test it out with this logo animation I made for The Chugs on Twitch! I love the stuff I made for Chug's Twitch channel, so I'll start to post some more of it this month! #pixelart #animation

Elsie won Best Arcade Game from TIGA! To celebrate, I wanted to post a backdrop from the game! This one is from Circuit City (the electric themed biome). There's a lot of vibrant tech and bioluminescent design elements in this stage. <3 #pixelart #backgrounds

Another @duelyst2.bsky.social unit! The Echo Deliverant was a cool character to animate! I love making over-the-top attack animations! Like most Duelyst units, this sprite design was by @glauberkotaki.com !

Flex Pixel Design @flexpixeldesign.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

Going to be posting some Duelyst animations on here! This is the Eternity Painter from the Songhai Empire faction! I always loved how that faction got a lot of Pandas. :) This guy was a lot of fun to animate since he got to do 3 strikes with his huge brush! Sprite design by @glauberkotaki.com !

Made this a few years ago for a fun project! There's 4 kingdoms that players could join, and each kingdom had it's own themes and motifs! I love making pixel art maps. :)

Elsie has been updated on Steam today, I figured it would be a good time to post some more icons! These are the icons for the various armor parts you can find and equip! If you get the whole set, you also unlock a set bonus!

Posting some more @duelyst2.bsky.social work! This animation was made years ago for the first Duelyst, but never made it in. That said, I always loved the special FX I made for it. :) Sprite design by @glauberkotaki.com !

Here it is slowed down if anyone likes to look at the frames! All of the animations were a lot of fun to make for @knightshiftgames.bsky.social , especially this one where the boss jumps in the air!

Since Elsie got nominated today for Notable Achievement in Accessibility @indiegameawards.gg I figured it would be a great time to post La Baba Royale jumping (for joy)!

I love making 32x32 #pixelart icons, and Elsie had a LOT of them! Not every icon on here is an Easter Egg, but there's quite a few of them! How many references on here do you guys recognize?

Here's an animation of Temporal Sage, Lily, from Dream Sloth Games, Duelyst 2! She's got a lot of fun pixel art effects in her animations! If you like card games and detailed pixel art animations, please check out Duelyst 2!

With Xaku Prime coming out today, figured it would be a good time to post some @warframe.com pixel art! I made these mock ups for the Warframe Zine in 2019! Maybe I'll crack open some relics today with Excalibur Umbra...

Arma, the Warmachine, from @knightshiftgames.bsky.social rogue lite game, Elsie! You actually have to fight 9 of these guys at once in the game!

This is the room where Elsie fights Rosalyn, the Flora Guardian. The nature biome is one of our favorites to run and gun through!
