some of the best tiles on all the collabs.

Wolverine, perhaps it's kinda small?

Elk: it's difficult so shade  the flesh seeing how there aren't any non-grey immediate colors in the palette.

Do I have to do anything for the mods to look at it again? I edited the file with the new bit.

Doesn't matter, perhaps this'll solve it.

huh, I'll try to figure something out. The reason I put both up is because the two girls interact.

Uploaded. Blu, we should do something like this again some time. I'm not much for pixel collabs, but I'd do a sequel to this!

It's the best adventure game I've ever played, at least.

Oh man, I remember I made an accompanying piece for this but I've lost it. Does anyone have it?

Very informative interview. Wonderful thoughts from Syosa.

Peeter, when you actually will have to get things done in a strict time schedule, you'll hit a ceiling and that'll be due to mspaint. It's as basic as having keyboard shortcuts for the tools you use so the mouse pointer is always on the art and not on the GUI, really. It's as basic as depth undo so you can experiment and roll back if it doesn't work seamlessly, while the mouse pointer is still on the art. It's about having keys to move up and down the palette entries *while the mouse pointer is still on the art*. Are you seeing a pattern? If speed isn't your concern, go ahead and use mspaint. But if it is (and if you ever want to make a game and/or work in the industry surrounding games) you'll want to use something better. Also, something professional people use. Usually Pro Motion. It's not about ideology (although it certainly could also be) it's about application.

If you ever see a video of a professional working on pro motion you'd think the art was making itself on the screen, that's how fast people get when they use the right tools on top of learning art in an efficient matter.

That's quite pretty. Run it through a vectoriser and make it 1680x1050 and it can be my new desktop!

great atmosphere and smart usage of the tilest, but the human forms are a bit messy and could be tightened up. Great work on many levels, still.

Finished this game. What an absolute pleasure it was to play. Great find, thanks!

That's really nice, render-wise. Patience and eye for volumes, good work. I'd be excited to see non-doll work from you.

That's great, I love it, besides the fact that he can't see where he's gallopping towards due to the excessive head movement! Makes him look panicked

I like it a lot. Sharper midcurves would help somewhat, but it's a nitpick.

This is very beautiful. A lot of your recent work shows vision, good work :D

Hey are you sure this is a clean version? Did you save over your steps? I think this suffers from gif dither on save. I opened it up to remove some banding on pro motion and there's scary patterned noises at flat spaces... do check. If not, I can remove the noise for you - and take a stab at making a 24 or 16 color palette of this... you don't need 66 colors... .

The style is spot on and she is quite attractive too. Great work on the knees. I know where it comes from, but is there a way to do this without the banding, I wonder. If you come over to Pixelation for critique we might find a few tricks.

Yes, nice eyes. I agree that could have been smoothed out, and a few other places too.
