This guy is amazing. At first you think he is a complete serious character, and you take him as a professor in the arts of pixel art. A couple of minutes later he's mimicking a jumping frog, then you know what you got yourself into. Absolute madlad, love this videos - subscribed.
Dear PMantis lord, thank you for your in depth analysis and appreciation of the wizardry that I share with you. As you have now joined the subscriber ranks each video I will shock and awe with the lengths Im willing to go to to mimic a frog as accurately as possible. Thanks for sticking around :)
I just found him and bro, you mean you didn't see his YT Avatar lmao XD
@@saultoons
I just found this guy and subed instantly im using what ive learned from him in my game
@@yelloflannel2549 Thanks Yello!
I had to make a simple walking cycle for school. (Gamedev student, we are making a simple platformer). At firsr i didnt think much of it but now im completely hooked to pixel art and animation. These videos are great to learn more about it!
Awesome I hope your next platformer game goes well! Make sure you join the discord and share your work if you’d like :D
Were you at an actual school or did you do it online and if it's online what was it called? Did you learn a lot from it?
This dude and his videos are Underrated. epicly. As a gamedeveloper myself, our art skills are prrtyy trash. This tutorial definitly helped improve it +99.
Glad it could help, thanks for the kind words :D
@@saultoons mama mia lezatos
he look like johnny sins
@@julianmy7abibi804 EXACTLY LMAO 🤣
i wanted to dwaw da dwarf so i clicked this
love that you can see your chair is worn down. This guy knows his priorities and it's making good ass art
hahahaha my bald head is like sandpaper it destroys that material :'D
i cant pay that program but i dont think anyone need it with such a good explanation/tutorial, thx for your effort and time.
No problem! Yes you should be able to apply the same process to any animation software :) thanks for watching
@@saultoons is it possible on android if it's possible what app do you recommend?
I don’t have an android so I’m not sure, though others recommend Pixel Studio so maybe give that a shot :)
@@saultoons thanks
You can compile it yourself for free. It's legal too
So glad you took the time to make these videos, they really are the best pixel art tutorials I've found! I've been sifting through a lot having just started getting into it with Aesprite a few weeks ago and I feel like nobody else so concisely details what each tutorial is on, how they go about it, EXACTLY how they go about it, and capture all the processes from start to finish! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the kind words Silly Con Valet :D I'm glad you think the videos are useful, more coming soon ish :'D

Hey, thanks for the sub! I am working on another animation tutorial (should be out in a month or so) which will go more into depth in animation principles :)
WELL...

You having only 7000 subs is a crime, this content is amazing
Thanks for the love :) 7000 is a lot to me :'D
Love you videos!!! I am starting with pixel art and I try to replicate your videos to learn how animation works. Thanks a lot!!!

Excellent ! Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial
No problem, glad it could help :D
me encantó el vídeo ^^
Es decir,a veces es difícil encontrar personas que expliquen tan bien,lo digo porque yo en lo personal no se mucho inglés,pero el recurso gráfico hizo entender muy bien el mensaje.
Muchas gracias por el vídeo,y muchas gracias si llegaste a leer mi comentario :D.
Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras, ¡te agradezco que hayas visto el video aunque no está en tu idioma nativo! Espero que pueda ayudar
amazing, so gooooooood tutorial for pixel animation!
I love that u reply to ur comments it shows ur one for the community. I’m subbing rn (btw do the points in the video apply to Krita or pixilart or other programs like that)
Thanks for subbing! :D Yeah the points in the video are applicable to most software where you can animate, even if its not pixel art but 2d or 3d. It's a common work-flow for animation I think :)
Great tutorial! My boyfriend just got me Aseprite for my birthday. I'm so excited to use it! I used GIMP when I first tried out pixel animation art. But then a year went by and I forgot how to use it. Figured if I've got to re-learn anyway, I should try a new program 😊I love your hopping pixel frog btw, so cute! Your animation instincts are spot on.
Nice!!! Saw your comment on the donut video too so I hope your learning adventure is going well 😁 always fun to learn something new! And thank you! Acting like a frog irl helps to understand how to animate it, at least I tell myself that 😂
Definitely subscribed love what your doing !
Thanks a lot! :D
I like your animation, but can you make a tutorial for each of the tools that are used frequently in aseprite? I'm not used to using it yet. Thanks
Sure! :)
I love you man! keep up the good work❤
Thanks for the love ❤️
This was helpful.. thanks Liam, you're the OG!
Happy to help Angad! Thanks for the kind words :)

I'm looking to make a top down 2d action rpg with combo based combat. That smear frame is exactly what I had pictured for sword slash animations. Super helpful.
Yeah smears are awesome! Perfect for a sword slash too!
You probably make some great NFT art

Dude u are awesome and deserve way more subs

When doing squishy things i like keeping the eyes solid and have them move around instead of stretching with the body.
That’s cool, whatever works best for you Lizard Geek 😄 do your thing!!!

Typically I cringe when people say that a youtuber does not have enough subs since it seems fine, but this is incredibly high quality content for only 50k subs, this is higher quality then some million sub youtubers. Thank you for helping me and many others!

Thanks a lot
Let Lambah go, you sicko!
MWUH HA HA HAAA!
Hi, I have a question, when doing your scaling and doing ratios for your pixel art assets, how do you do the ratios for characters and scale it to the game objects and screen resolution, how do you ratio all that so it looks good across all the assets.
Hi Frosty Map, when I’m creating assets for a game I first establish what resolution the game is going to be in. For example, 16:9 screen resolution ratio. Which is the most common screen size, especially for console/PC. Then I design the game based on that ratio. So if I want my game to work in 1920*1080 (a very common resolution), I may design a pixel art mock up at 480*270 which is pixel art to 1080p ratio of 4:1, (divide 1920 by 4 and 1080 by 4) so my pixel art would scale by 4 in engine. But the actual ratio depends on your game and character assets too, if you need more room on the screen you may do 3:1 and design in 640x360 so the characters don’t take up as much space. I usually just keep experimenting and find what works best for the game, as long as it’s a scale factor of common resolution that I’m targeting, (typically 16:9 1920x1080) it will scale fine :) I’ll be making a video on my background design process at some point so I’ll try and address this issue in that video if you need further help! If you have any further questions or need any help don’t hesitate to join the discord or find me on social media and I’ll do what I can to help :D
this is really good video
Thanks, glad you like it! :D

Thanks!
Me termine todo el video, aunque no entendí casi nada 😔, mi inglés aún es muy básico, aún así gran tutorial, con la explicación visual se dio a entender. Gracias 👌.
Lo siento, no pudiste entender nada del video. Espero que en el futuro pueda traducir mis subtítulos al español para que puedan entender: D Gracias por vernos de todos modos
@@saultoons Y cumpliste, asi que aqui estoy yo, entendiendo los mejores tutoriales de pixelart que hay en internet. Eres genial
very good tutorials well explained, efficient and with good editing besides that they make me laugh I am from Mexico and I do not speak English, I used the youtube translator and even so they are one of the best videos about pixer art that I have seen greetings
Gracias por las amables palabras Pedro, ¡te lo agradezco mucho!
Me alegra que te gusten los videos, ¡habrá más videos divertidos en el futuro y también más tutoriales! :D
@@saultoons On the contrary, thanks to you you always help me and you facilitate me some things that I do not find well in the animations, I am starting on this and for a moment I was stuck at a point where I did not improve or have any progress but thanks to you I was able to leave and now I feel that I have improved a lot
GREETINGS !!!
Bro your so underated
Thanks for the love Ahyaan
Cool
Thanks :D
I really like your channel. Keep up the good work. what application do you use?

Thanks for watching! :D
Great Video! I've learned a lot from your tutorials. What video editing software would you use to get your animation ready for instagram/other social media?
Whatever you have available really, I use Premiere Pro but I've heard great things about Davinci Resolve and there are lots of other options!
