This is something that would not be possible in an open world RPG (unless you are willing to spend many many more hours creating the art) We hope this livecast helped you understand how easy and fun pixel art can be and how using it can help create amazing looking games. com/GameDevTV https://www.
Rick Davidson & Tim Ruswick* are joined by Reece Geofroy to talk all things pixel art and how to get good at it. We also have a new Pixel Characters course from Reece, you can check that out here. You can also check out Reece’s pixel art game Monster Tribe on Steam.
