Even if the translation is not the best, I managed to watch your video with the subtitles on and your teaching is spectacular. Whenever I wanted to create something, I felt like I didn't have the creativity so I never know where to start, I always copied something and kept trying to modulate it. Your video was instrumental in making me see how I will try to create my arts from now on, and it made me learn to speak your language. A hail from Brazil

Few tips to make a good character - 1. Make sure everything has a reason, make it so your character's backstory makes sense. 2. Don't be lazy, put enough effort into making the character until you like it. 3. Remember to try out new things from time to time. It might help you. 4. Be creative!

acesprite's contour tool is amazing, i literally was moving the mouse around in a cloak shape and completely by accident made an awesome wizard character, it looked like a little beanbag with stumpy legs, a red cloak and 2 eyes that were 2 pixel high lines

I'm at that part in game development where most mechanics have been implemented, and now I just have to make the assets pretty.

Your videos are really cool man! Happy that I found your channel and subscribed! 1-The question is in what format did you download the color pallet on lopsec? 2- How do you zoom in and zoom out if you are using Drawing Tablet?

@saultoons

2 жыл бұрын

Yo! Thanks for the kind words :D To answer your questions 1 - I usually just take a png and manually create the colour palette in Aseprite with the colour picker, because sometimes I noticed it doesn't work well if I try to do it automatically or load the other files into Aseprite. There is probably a better way than this - I'd recommend asking on our community discord because someone might have a more efficient way to do it :D 2 - Use the zoom tool, z for shortcut and then just click and drag :)
