For a while I have been having a lot of fun with pixel art. Pixel art is done by making miniscule pixilated pictures. Pixel art is used in almost all 2d games, games like Pokémon and most Final Fantasies. Pixel art is able to be done on Paint and Photoshop.
Here is an example I made
In most of my pixel art the main components are outlined in black, so that when they are put on a background they stand out.
I don’t yet have a game like this, but I wish I could. I like the look of the pixel art in 2d games and when you see the character in games move those are individual repeating images. In Terraria for instance your character swings his sword the same way over, and over, and over. The same thing happens in Pokémon. Your character takes a left step, then a right step, then a left step. Each movement of that sword or step is a repeating image.
I enjoy making, looking, and playing with pixel art. Pixel art is easy to do and fun to show other people and if you have a photo editor on your computer you should try making some.
