About This Course

Imagine how freaking sweet your game would look in pixel art. Well you can stop right now cause I'm going to show you how to do it step by step. ==== UPDATED 2025 ==== In this course I'll use all of my animation experience to show you all you need to know in order to create your very own pixel art animation.

You will learn how to create a "REAL GAME CHARACTER", not a stick figure, not a mess up simple looking art, but a real game character, that's playable in the eyes of a cold hearted and judgmental game audience. You will start from being a total noob to a real pixel art pro in no time because I'm going to show all the details and special "kicks" that only the pros would know. Featuring over 3 hours of footage, you'll be able to follow step by step as I take you through creating the most mind boggling pixel art.

You'll learn how to bake some PiXEL ART by learning some recipes below:Configuring Photoshop as a workplace to create pixel art animationCreating shapes and coloring it as fast as possible Shortcut keys to make your workflow extra fastThe use of lines to form different part of a game characterLayering to combine different shapes in order to make different animation motion (* it's all about the motion)Take this course now and you will fall into the eternal pixel art abyss. Warning this course is only for the crazy ones that want to create some mind blowing pixel art. People with basic symptoms are:Game Programmers who think they can do everything by themselvesArtists and Designers who thinks learning basic pixel art creation are not enoughGame artists who are looking to evolve their art style like some sort of 90s pet anime People with a crazy creative mind *I will be adding more resources regularly.
