Alright so hey everybody! I decided to try my hand at a little Spriting, and this is my VERY first time ever doing it, so I know it's bad XD. Obviously, this is not a complete product, but I wanted some input on what I might could do differently or better. I created it using the Pixel Art app on my Android, MS Paint, and Paint.NET. Also, I am having a problem getting it to work in RM; the system only wants to select small portions of the image when I try to use it as a Sprite. Maybe it's because of the canvas size? Either way, tell me what you think of my little Tank Droid.

Aw, I like it. It's cute (and for some reason reminds me of Wall-E. Of course, that might

be because I have Pixar on the brain right now). For your very first sprite, this is pretty

awesome!

In order to use it in-game, however, don't forget to put a $ at the beginning of the name, or

else it thinks it is a large sprite sheet with several characters. I think that's why it's only trying

to select a small portion of the image. ;)

I agree with Sketchy, it looks cute, and practical in terms of space and design.

Those are actually far better reviews than I was expecting! Thanks! :D


I tried the $ in front, and that did help. Now I know what adjustments I need to do to it :)


Wall-E, huh? You know... I might actually start making him next xD. It would be good practice for getting ready for the sprites I'll need for my big project :) .

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
How many parameters is 'too many'??
