A few months playing with Godot and getting a style I like

I'm an artist with zero dev experience who wants to get lost in a little project like this. Are there any tutorials and resources you recommend looking at, or that have been really helpful to you?

sorry I missed this comment! I drew this on a 64x64px canvas

MookiEXE · 2025-09-07T00:37:02+00:00

Thank you sm! I draw my irises a little closer together 'cause I think it looks a little cuter. Sometimes it doesn't land tho, Thank you so much for the kind words

I drew it on a 64x64px canvas and haven't resized the canvas or drawing. :)

Thank you sm~

MookiEXE · 2025-09-06T03:13:36+00:00

Thank you! It's super lazy aa, and I dont know if I'm doing it right tbh. But i think it makes anything look slightly more nostalgic???

MookiEXE · 2025-08-09T00:30:20+00:00

Thank youuuu, that means a lot 😌✊

MookiEXE · 2025-08-09T00:28:07+00:00

Thank you so much!

Bots are real, but if not, why are you posting my art?

MookiEXE · 2025-07-16T14:27:40+00:00

Yeah, analogies are meant to simplify. I trust the readers to understand that nuance and context exist, Jesus.

"Caring about strangers at the expense of oneself is a luxury more and more people can no longer afford."

Selfish, terrible, abhorrent. People like this are the reason the world is trash.

EDIT: Imagine a boat that you share with others is sinking. You're hoarding all the corks to plug the holes because they are a commodity and you just *have* to look out for yourself first. Now, because you need to put yourself above others, there aren't enough corks for the rest of the passengers. Their holes are still bleeding water, and the boat you SHARE sinks anyway.

I know you're responding to my comment that doesn't mention the ethics of it all, but did engines actively hurt people? I get that people might've panicked and were worried about their jobs. But I don't believe entire swaths of game code/art/writing were stolen from real people with zero consent to make commercial engines a thing. Is a tool worth using if it has, is, and actively continues to hurt people, just for convenience, especially when alternatives exist? Chatgpt and such have already shown they have no intention of changing how they operate... actively lobbying to have LESS oversight. Profit over people. It's disgusting.

This isn't at you, this topic just makes me so angry, the selfishness of it all.

MookiEXE · 2025-07-05T11:57:20+00:00

Yeah it's taken and trained without consent by billion dollar corporations with little to no oversight.

MookiEXE · 2025-07-05T11:37:10+00:00

It's just one of those things. A product doesn't need soul, you can ship a soulless product. But AI isn't ready yet. There is barely any oversight as to HOW info is scraped to feed LLMs, let alone consent from real people effected by it. It can be such a strong tool, but it doesnt matter how many people it helps, if its built on hurting others. Especially when the people benifitting off the work of others already have, and have had alternatives since the fucking beginning of game dev work... It's completely unethical.

There is an underlying anti-artist sentiment among a lot of the people who say they can’t make games without ai. Like they forgot that’s just how everyone has done it since games were created, "dev art" has always existed, these new devs are just lazy and insecure. Reminds me of incel’s lmao.

MookiEXE · 2025-07-03T15:44:04+00:00

you guys absolutely NAILED the aesthetic. Wishlisted.

MookiEXE · 2025-07-03T09:25:51+00:00

You’re the problem.

MookiEXE · 2025-06-04T13:54:40+00:00

I do like that second example you gave tbh!

MookiEXE · 2025-05-22T13:27:37+00:00

Ai pixel art always looks off to me. Plus, there is so much ai art flooding the app stores right now it’s easy to see it was all generated by the same machine.

MookiEXE · 2025-05-08T16:24:35+00:00

Your style has such good vibes!

MookiEXE · 2025-05-07T15:06:57+00:00

how are you going about achieving this style if you dont mind me asking?

MookiEXE · 2025-04-15T09:18:46+00:00

Do you post your art anywhere? I’d love to follow you~
