DESPAIN'S PROFILE

author=Deacon Batista
I lost my job, too, and still I didn't go back to my parents. I would rather die before I let them rule over my life again.

hey what a coincidence—that was the exact choice i was faced with. die or go back to my mom's house.

maybe my willingness to survive is a bit stronger than yours. so fuck off and leave that antagonistic shit out of this thread.

Its odd the Canon has blue but the rest is monotone... Cool though.

it seems a bit out of place in these images yeah, but lots of objects that you can interact with will have a single color a lot like the cannon.

glad people like it :O

the hero has earth powers; the central mechanic of the game is that she can raise a shield of stone out of the ground on the tile in front of her, which can repel enemies and stuff. other than that she can't attack and lots of the game will be about manipulating objects within the environment to defeat enemies and solve puzzles.


KAAAA MEEEE HAAAAA MEEEEE HAAA

hey krysty—my biggest advice for you is to start with FORM and then add detail. creating an outline first and then coloring it in leads to all sorts of problems that make it very hard to present visual depth. i approach pixel art like a painting, starting with blob forms and then refining them. it will probably help you a lot.

also you could really try some AA to smooth out the girl's hair. the jagged lines on it are really jarring.

anyway, here's some stuff from me. if anybody hangs out in irc they've probable seen it.

i made that grid and it was like 2 minutes in photoshop
