One of the most overlooked tips: practice as often as possible. Your vision of your own art and even pixel art in general will shift into something totally different as you practice. You'll have way more patience when it comes to dealing with designing new sprites and you'll be able to correct your mistakes way faster than usual.
That's a great tip! Thanks!
This was really helpful thank you! For tip 4 I like adding bulkier corners on items you can interact with so players know that’s the focus of the schene
That's a great idea!
I started game dev a few months ago but focusing on learning code but after that il start making actual games, so this is really helpful
Glad to hear it! Best of luck to you!
Please what software @@KiwiBee
3 years later, how’s it going?
Im lovin how warm and cozy your art style is! Great video, looking forward for more :))
Thank you so much!
Awesome video Kiwii! Keep up the work and progress your art as far as you can take it! :D
Thanks, Reece! I plan to :D
Excellent tips! :D
Thanks!
Thank you, I always loved pixel art, I lose interest and motivation because of a bad experience with an ex friend of mine, but maybe I should try it out again.
Definitely! Don't let a bad experience rob you of a passion.
I don't know how RUclips algo recommended this channel / video on my feed..
but I really need this kind of stuff on my other account (separate accounts for school / work / self-study (programming // design) / personal).
Thank you for the tips. It is really helpful for a beginner like me.
You're welcome! I'm so glad I could help!
lovely pixel art and pro-tips - Keep up the good work
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words!
My biggest struggle right now is making characters and animation to said characters. Been trying to understand through videos here but you might be better at explaining, who knows😉 good work on the video, allot of tips that I will start to use👍🙂
Thanks! So glad I could help! Characters and animation can be a struggle for sure. It helps to study the behavior/movement of people and animals to get a feel for the timing and order of what moves first and how the rest of the body follows.
this is actually really helpful, i am a beginner and making a game using pixel art so ive been looking for a good tutorial ^^ (btw you really remind me of goodgis and your art style is really cute :D)
Glad I found another underrated Game Dev with amazing content, subscribed :)
Thanks so much!
@@KiwiBee I played your game jam and really enjoyed it. I was wondering how you got the crouch thingy to work? Would love a video on how you made your game as well
Loved this... great tips!!!
Thank you!
Just finished my uni work, can't wait to get back into pixel art and game dev!
That's awesome! Best of luck on your future games!
Awesome tips! I'm making my 2nd pixel art game now :D Maybe make a video on shading/dithering someday~ keep it up!
Thanks for the suggestion! Best of luck on your game!
epic vid.
My only extra tip is to try a bit of regular drawing and learn a bit of painting (you don't have to do it yourself) but it'll help a lot in knowing more how colors and shading work
That's good advice! I've been doing that my whole life, so I didn't even think to include that for pixel art. Thanks!
@@KiwiBee no problem
My tip is to actually not use a premade palette, I think its important to improve your color picking
That's true! It is important to improve your color picking. I think starting out with pre-made palettes is a great option for beginners because it helps develop an eye for good color pairings. Once you have that, it will be easier to start selecting your own colors. Great tip!
Hey, nice video! keep it up with the nice content! ^^
Thanks so much!
Awesome... That's exactly what I need! Go Go Go
Glad I could help!
Best pixel artist
Idk about that lol, but thank you! :)
Really good video! subbed
Thanks!
Thanks for the Tips!
Happy to help!
Before you start drawing. Look at pictures of either photos or other drawings of the thing you want to draw. Just to get some inspiration and get the proportions or anatomy of the thing. Then start to visualize and start with a simple single color silhouette. Then add base colors where needed. Then start shading. And don't forget to once in a while take a look at your drawing from a distance to see how it would look in the intended resolution. Add a background and even better.
Thankyou maam .this was so helpful🤩🤩
You're so welcome! I'm glad I could help!
Just what I need rn!
I hope it helps! :D
Honestly, the main thing that I'm really struggling to grasp right now is shadows. I kind of get like lighting on an object and how to color that, but shadows are a huge struggle.
I still struggle with shadows too. I would recommend looking at shading tutorials for art in general. Not just pixel art. :)
I am trying my best before I get completely blind thank you for your assist
😂 definitely had the copy issue happen to me hahaha. Another tip is for assets use real world image references like for trees, swords etc. Seems to better help make the look and feel of them much better at least for me if did.
I have only shared one pixel art on my Instagram hahaha as of yet but will eventually share a game I am working on with my kids! Love your videos great Work 👍🏼
Thanks so much! I appreciate the tip. I love that you're making a game with your kids. That's so fun!
You earned a sub!
Thanks!
Thanks:] subbed👍
Thank you, and welcome!
poggers thanks team!
No, thank YOU :D
Suggestion: Make a tutorial about top down tilesets
That's a good idea. Thanks!
Hey! I have a question, because... i have Aseprite for pixelart, and i'm a beginner, yeah! So, it's okay if i use that noww?? Or another app or web it's better?
Dang I never even though of keeping my stuff in scale. For my spring jam game the tiles are way way smaller than the sprites :/
That's okay. Now you know for next time :)
@@KiwiBee :)
Maybe make a vid about how to make a good looking 2d pixel game
Thanks for the suggestion!
Woah this video is good good, definitely subscribing!
Oh and I have a problem where I feel like my sprite is not good enough, or not detailed enough, how do you avoid that feeling of "This is not good"?
Thanks! Yeah, I think all creatives struggle with that. The important thing is not to judge your work based on other people’s work. You’re going to have your own unique style and that’s good! If everyone made the same art that would be boring. You should look at other people’s work for inspiration, but don’t be hard on yourself because you’re not at that level yet. Have grace for where you’re at, and just keep learning and getting better! :)
Woah
:D
how to make something swing with pixel art
im always like 12 minutes late for the premiere
That's okay. Thanks for watching! :)
@@KiwiBee :D
Dont wanna be that guy but what program do you work with, it seems so user friendly
I use Pyxel Edit. It is very user friendly IMO. My favorite feature is that right click is the eyedropper tool so it's very easy to switch colors!
Do you make tile sets by chance?
Only for the few small games that I've worked on.
I am actually tired with my art skill. I wanna make my game but I cant seem to draw my main character.
Whtq software is this?
Quick question, what program do ya use?
I use Pyxel Edit
@@KiwiBee Any thoughts on pros and cons of Pyxel Edit vs. others like Aseprite? Also, any plans to make more vids?
excuse me i want to ask, what software did you use in this video?
Pyxel Edit :)
what's the art at 0:49?
2:13 a wild big look in its natural habitat
Heck yeah!
Could you write the name of that site with colors pls?
Yeah! www.lospec.com
iloveyou
Dummy bunny was cute.
*Endesga 36 is the best palette.*
TRUE
I just looked it up. That one is really nice!
Why did you stop uploading videos?
Did something happened?
Which software I can use to start learning pixel art
I use Pyxel Edit. Aesprite is also good. If you're looking for a free version then Piskel and Microsoft Paint are good options for getting started. Best of luck! :)
@@KiwiBee Thanx Alot really.
For now I'm using Photo studio in my phone 😃
@@nwing89 That's great! In my opinion, it doesn't matter what you use as long as you're learning and creating! Keep it up :D
a question what app do you use for pixel art
I use Pyxel Edit.
Thanks
@@KiwiBee does it available on Android?
i don't know what is that why is a mixed pixel perfect and not in the same art
and after 2:13 i need therapy
Why, are you scared of mazes?
and I'm not sure I understand your question.
i am just talking about what you said ad 2:13
Hello👋🏻
Hello!
Strugling with isometric art
Isometric art is tricky. I have a video on isometric art. If you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check it out. Maybe it will help :)
@@KiwiBee yea i did long ago tbh XD i was hopping u could go more on. The topic of it some shapes on it is bothering me i dont rlly strugle with it anymore now charcters giving me hell
@@JADEN_THE_ONE I'm glad you're not struggling as much with it anymore! Keep practicing and studying other characters you like in the same style and I'm sure it will get easier. :) Best of luck!
@@KiwiBee yea thx XD
Hi kiwii i am your new follower
I can only catch a little explanation because my listening skill for English language is poor
So can you add caption please ? english auto generated is okay
Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Which App Is that?
Pyxel Edit
Something to note is these are conditional. Like the outline tip. I tend to outline important things such as characters, important items, and things the payer will collide with. Background details like those acorns, clouds, flowers etc, that aren’t going to be interacted with if you are playing a game or arn’t important to be in focus on in a overall scene don’t get an outline. This helps the important stuff obvious while keeping the less important things in the background. You can also use a color other than black for the outline that matches the colors used, (such as a dark yellow for the key, a grey for the bunny, or a dark green for the tree,) this will make it a softer edge. Speaking of which if you want something to look manufactured or mechanical having those sharp corners help. This is also good for spikes. It’s all situational and you will learn when to apply these things and when not to the more you practice.
