I like it. If i would play your game, i see a funny jumping and opening box and i can't find anything to complain.
Task solved!

I hate it. It reminds me how much I suck at graphics. OK, no, I hate you.

Seriously now, keep it up. I'm eager to see what you come up with. The borderless version looks nicer to me, but it's a big contrast with the other sprites that have a border. OTOH the squish made the border look too thick for a frame or two and that's fixed with the borderless version.

Yeah, since I use faithful pixels with no halfway pixels, anything stretched will look strange, but even worse when it has a solid border. I don't want anything to have a border really. I just can't draw characters so I stole Zelda characters for now.

I made a third version here to play with that uses the same chests as the first version but without the border so they're 14x14 pixels instead. A bit of tweaking and they work great. They look cute, but I'll probably stick with the 16 pixel borderless versions.
Sorry that butterfly photobombed me.

I'm working on drill_bit, a lo-fi asteroid mining arcade game.

What is everyone working on?

Something awesome. Will post details when I am able...

oh, and this is just clipart I found online. It's not an image indicative of what I'm working on... not directly indicative... I need sleep...

Finally creating and adding graphics to my first "learning project" which is an endless runner.


I'm currently working on the ground graphics. It isn't done - I still have to add grass, the some proper lighting and dithering on some parts, all that fun stuff. I'm also currently deliberating if I should continue the dithering transition style or if I should do like a smooth transition style.

I wrote a terrain generator quickly, based on the diamond square algorithm. It came out pretty well, I think. It looks like a Tycho album art generator.

Very cool - I love how you only have two colors and still get so much feeling across with just a bit of camera shake and particles. Are there more gifs where these came from?

Looks neat! Is this for a game or "just for fun"?
