How do you think the developers pulled this background off?

[tearsofthenight]

it looks very professional how do you think they did it?

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

pixel art I guess?

It looks like it took forever

If it's from a known game or made by a AAA company, I'd expect nothing less...

 

[ElementalLight]

depends what era it came from

yeah its from Konami

depends what era it came from

Early 2000's.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

and I've really seen a lot of awesome 2D backgrounds made thru pixel art throughout my life so I won't be surprised if that really was made via pixel art... 

 

[ElementalLight]

then yea if its early 2000 probably pixel art by hand id think if someone did one today they'd just make a program for it or something.

Yeah it prob took months to do these to.

Technically, there is a lot of repeated elements so that shouldn't take that long to create for a professional.

Yeah just getting a flow would be hard.

Yeah just getting a flow would be hard.

Actually this is quite easy, it's just a lot of copy and past, if you know basics I mean.

 

[Sharm]

Yeah, that actually wouldn't take that long to make. I could do something similar in a day.


Things like this however make me weep with envy.

(This background is from SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos)

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

I'd probably take a year or more of practice and another year or more working on it to make something like that Sharm... XD

 

[Sharm]

I would need more than a year to get there I think. It is what I'm working towards though. I will be that awesome someday! Personally I think they took a painting and then just digitally reproduced it as pixel art.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

can't wait to see you making those
