These are the best of my pixel art and #pixel_dailies from January!

It has been such an amazing couple of months of pixel art! I have learned a lot and I can’t wait to make much more

If I had the time I think I would make a sidescrolling bicycle racing game. Or team manager sim or something.
Finding tome to learn game dev is tricky though!

Hi folks of @pixeldailies.bsky.social
Myself and a few other artists may start marking some posts with the tag #feedbackfriday to signal that we want constructive criticism & feedback about either #pixel_dailies or general #pixelart!

@gobparty.bsky.social got it started in this thread 🥳
Trying out an idea by @kingofthephil.bsky.social using #feedbackfriday for art that I am willing to take more critical feedback on.

I started learning pixel art in Nov last year with the intention of making a game. Now I don't know if I want to go the route of top down or platformer. Part 1

A quick couple of doodles for today’s @pixeldailies.bsky.social

Would anyone be interested in “feedback Friday”? You use the tag #feedbackfriday for more critical/feedback comments? I absolutely love the positive comments I receive but I’m interested in improving as well!

A new lil project inspired by my Mother 3 play through. If you don’t already use @spriters-resource.com it is incredible for learning more about sprites and video game assets.Thanks to @castpixel.bsky.social for that suggestion!

I spent some much needed time drawing on paper today.

I lack the ability to visualize in my mind before I draw. It's more of a discovery process.

I have always been able to draw heads/faces indefinitely.
While I tend to draw masculine faces - I am making efforts to change that. #art #ink #drawing

"Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why,
We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye,
And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told?
Let them ring out loud till they unfold." - Melodies of life, FFIX

Inspired by Van Gogh's Starry Night and memories.

everyone keeps saying "there's no ethical AI" when what they mean is "there's no ethical LLMs"

I agree completely.
I don't usually get upset by celebrity deaths, but something about hearing Catherine O'Hara has passed really hits hard. What a loss.

the Cave Story mockup that almost came out officially.
I worked with the Cave Story publisher Nicalis for a few months developing a pixel art but higher resolution version of the game.

Pixel approved!
Here's also some upscaled sprites, showing options #pixelart

I made this background stuff for Giant's Path, a game prototype made in Toge Greenhouse (it's a 2 week internal gamejam at workplace in December 2025)
