PIXEL Moon Tutorial - Amiga - Brilliance II

PIXEL Moon Tutorial

If you want to learn how to draw Pixel art, one way is to copy another design. In this tutorial after an Amigan requested some help on an Amiga Facebook site, I decided to quickly create this tutorial to help on how to approach creating some Pixel Art. 

A more detailed posting accompanies this video on my Patreon Blog (free) as well as the source files.

- know the tools of your software
- practise, practise, practise drawing
- observe/study other artists 

Have a great day/evening.

NEONworld - free AMIGA game assets

 Hey Everyone,

Want to build your own Amiga game but don't have assets, we'll I decided create assets ready to use and build a game in your favourite engine or your own.  The graphics are OCS and 16 colours, this should cover every Amiga platform including the very first Amiga 1000.

I plan to do more game assets for people to play with over time. (I have other assets such as Tetris clone, and Space Invaders, but newer ideas will come)

This screenshot shows the example map created in "Tiled" and the complete game assets in the bottom right section.

If your interested in future please read the details and grab the assets from my patreon site. (zip file)

https://www.patreon.com/posts/neonworld-2020-42472876

The idea is to encourage more people to play around with the newer engines such as RedPill, Scorpion or work on their own. 

P.S. The only condition is the game is free and add credits and links back to me :)
If you enjoy what I do, please consider becoming a Patreon or send a Beer :)

I am very open to refining the structure of the Patreon and if your a Gold member you will be able to influence what I do for the Amiga Scene. Thanks again for visiting and now back to creating some teaser pixel work.

ProXima 3 - Update May 2018

ProXima 3 - "Dark Tomb" Level tiles.

Creating games takes a long time :) (especially if your working on 4 at once)

I will try to tease out a few more game assets to share as time goes by.  Below is selection of graphics for the level "Dark Tomb".  You will notice that the foreground tiles are mostly symmetrical, This will change overtime. 

The colour palette "bottom left" is almost finalised (16 colours).
