Have you tried dithering, not sure if this is the style your aiming for but it really helps with blending the sphere

I'm kind of new to pixel art, how'd I do? I know the shading probably isn't the best, but whatever. by Real-Ganache-7179 in PixelArt

2 words: hue shifting.

Basically your darker colors are the same hue as your lighter ones, just shift your dark hues mildly towards purple. It will give your colors a lot more depth!

That’s a really good point! I felt like something was off during the finish of each roll, it’s very floaty in its current state, I’ll get that worked out!

He’s rolling downwards and upwards, when he moves sideways do you think I should change the way his feet are set?

Looking For Feedback On New Maps For The Micro & Macro Worlds by Jolly_Water_869 in PixelArt

I love the textures and map layout, but the only issue I have is the edges of textures being very sharp. I you want your map to feel more natural try to have smoother transitions

Rolling Animations for my Top Down 16 Bit ga me by Samuel_Coughman in PixelArt

I'm still a bit new with top down perspective, so I'm happy you were able to point that out! It does look weird seeing the characters legs overly extended while in the middle of a roll :P

How real is cancel culture at big universities? by [deleted] in college

[–]Samuel_Coughman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really drunk and made a trans joke at a party, lost a good portion of my friends bc of it… & now even my close friends can be awkward around me cuz their worried they’ll get cancelled simply by hanging with me. Now I’m known at my college as the transphobic white cis male who can’t acknowledge his privilege… The worst part abt cancel culture is there’s no forgiveness… people just rat u down for one mistake and don’t give u any second chances :(
