dev blog 31b I wanted to make a character to white box in my game attempts. Meet Bob. Bob enjoys long walks on the beach, appreciates a good shellfish buffet, and is deeply suspicious of seagulls. Don't ask. 🌊🦐🦅 #pixelart #bored #art #funny

Day 30 - 4 Colors I was not so sure about this one. @riclor.bsky.social said they did one of their dog. So I decided to do one of my cat, Root. This was hard and I feel mixed. It was harder since she has mostly black fur. #pixelart #art #cat #4color #attemptsweremade

Day 29 #cafe When @riclor.bsky.social pitched this theme. I instantly knew what I wanted to do. I was worried I would not get the steam right, but I think I did well for 8 frames. #pixelart #art #coffee #warm #cozy #learning #gamedev

Day 28 Gumball Machine Decided on a gumball machine today. Thought it would be a fun bright design with a lot of little pieces. #pixelart #art #candy #gumballs #learning #gamedev

Day 27 Space I decided to do a space ship. Was not really sure how to texture it, but I came up with some stuff after just goofing around. #pixelart #art #space #spaceship #learning

Day 26 Sci-Fi I've been wanting to try a robot. I did a 1 pixel center which means it does not line up perfect, but I'm realizing that's not a huge deal. #pixelart #art #robot #scifi #learning

Day 25 Evil Corp I'm not really excited about this one. I had ideas in my head, but I need more space. Meh, it's something. #pixelart #art #failedattempt #learning

Day 23 Goldfish I kind of wanted to animate this one, but I didn't, cause I didn't want too. #lazy I wanted to take it farther then just a goldfish. #pixelart #art #fish #goldfish #fishtank #learning

Day 22 Duck Not feeling so well, so tried to do something simple today. If it pixels like a duck then it must be a duck. The support has been great. It's helped me to keep going. We're planning on getting more into #godot when our 30 days ends. #pixelart #art #duck #learning

Day 21 Coin Decided to do a coin that is animated today. I think I nailed it. Now the real question. Heads or Tails? #pixelart #art #funny #coin #learning #animation

Day 20 House Plant I decided to make my little house plant do a little dance. It's pretty fun to do some of the animation, but takes time. #pixelart #art #houseplants #learning #animation #gamedev

Day 19 Dice We made a dice today. I wanted to make it as perfect as I can since they are made with no imperfections. #pixelart #art #dice #die #d6

Day 18 #horse (freestyle day) I might have taken a lot of "inspiration" from two crowns. I learned a bit though so that's cool. I want to animate this, but I don't have time today. #pixelart #art #learning #practice

Shylor @shylor.com · 20/01/2025

Day 17 Campfire (Animated) So this is the first time I have tried to animate pixel art. I thought a campfire would need that. I think I did pretty good. We're looking to build a community for fellow artists. griv.io/@artlzar #pixelart #animation #art #learning #gamedev #campfire

Day 16 Viking Axe I tried to keep this one pretty simple today. I think it's important for me to learn how to make tools and items for games. #pixelart #art #vikings #learning #practice #gamedev

Day 15 #Tree I wanted to more of a #zelda #nes tree, but I don't know how to do that yet. So I went with this. I also included more of my process here. #pixelart #art #learning #retro #attempt

Day 14 Quarry This might be the first temp asset to something @riclor.bsky.social and I are playing around with. Not sure if it will go anywhere. I was not planning on keeping this low color, but I kind of did in the end. Check out our group. griv.io/@artzlar #pixelart #art #learning #gamedev

Day 13 Pineapple Now that I look at it on here. I could have put more shades on the left side. It's okay, not 100% happy with it, but it will have to do for today. #pixelart #art #learning #pineapple P.S. Now I want some pineapple. 🍍

Day 12 Cabin Did something simple today. I wanted to get on to other stuff. Might have been forced by @riclor.bsky.social #pixelart #art #cheatday #learning

Day 11: Wanted Poster I thought I might add more details, but then I realized I was limited. Instead of making a larger canvas, I decided to run with it. I think it came out pretty good. #pixelart #art #artwork #artchallenge Check out our new community on Grivio. griv.io/@artzlar @artzlar.com

Day 10: Moon I really like how I'm starting to learn how to do low-detail items. I'm also starting to understand more when a pixel is needed or not. I'm also trying to work on my color usage. Join our art community on Grivio. griv.io/@artzlar #pixelart #art #artchallenge #learning

Day 9 Theme: Freestyle I saw the world from @franekk.bsky.social and I had to try this. I loved it so much. I might have borrowed a few things. Their post: bsky.app/profile/fran... I think they did it better 🤣 #pixelart #learning #art

Shylor @shylor.com · 11/01/2025

Day 8 Theme Mage Tower I think I did pretty well here. It took a while to figure out the style. We're also starting an art community if you want to join. We're calling it Artlzar. You can find us here: griv.io/@artzlar #pixelart #art #community #learning #skills #practice #gamedev #retro

Day 7 Theme: #chest I really tried to take some advice from @ccchapman.ca today and use up more space on the canvas. I also tried to do more 3D. I had some "inspiration" today. It helped me develop the idea for the 3D style, and I think it turned out well. #pixelart #art #learning #gamedev

Day 6 Theme: #cake Today, we decided to do a #pixle cake. Sounds like a fun and colorful idea. I decided to use 32x32 today to get more detail. However, @ccchapman.ca pointed out that I use the space weird. Maybe I need to use more space for the main topic. #pixelart #art #learning #gamedev

Shylor @shylor.com · 08/01/2025

Day 5 Today's theme was #potion You thought I was going to miss it? Not me! ... well, maybe me a little bit. This one is a bit simple. I didn't really know what to do with the other wall. I had to do a pink potion for my company, Begeeked Labs. begeekedlabs.com #pixelart #art #learning #pixel

Day 4 Today's challenge was #octopus. I think I did pretty good. Also, I moved up to 24x24 to get a little bit more space. I'm having a lot of fun with these. #pixelart #art #artchallenge #learning #gamedev

Shylor @shylor.com · 05/01/2025

Day 3 So, we chose to do cacti today. I think it came out pretty good. @ccchapman.ca He got me into doing these the other day. We'll be doing them together most days if you want to see our two ideas. Feel free to do your own with us. #pixelart #art #artwork #artpost #gameart

Day 2 The AI topic was a mushroom. How did I do? I'm still trying to figure out color palettes. I'm a bright, vivid kind of guy. Also, I watched a video that suggested starting with a smaller canvas. So I went with 16x16. The 64x64 felt hard to get it right. #pixelart #art #learning #game

Day 1 I decided with a friend last night, that we are going to start doing a pixel art challenge. I want to try and do one thing of pixel art a day to improve. I used AI to generate a random idea and it came up with Rollerskate. #pixelart #art #challange
