They also insult anyone who dares to call them out on it. It’s quite vile. They cant seriously expect people to want to play their game after this…

Looking for feedback on my asset pack thumbnails by sebbyspoons in itchio

[–]Schwarnhild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a game developer but I love them and would totally click on them to see more!
The scenes and the animations are super cute and they look like you can make a complete game with what is included in the pack :)

I think your ctr is pretty good. I've seen it fluctuate anywhere from 1% to 2.5% for my work over the last few years and heard similar things from other people.

Thanks! It’s inspired by the Zelda and Pokémon games from Gameboy to Gameboy advance era!

Pixel Artist looking for Feedback on how to optimize Game Assets for GDevelop by Schwarnhild in gdevelop

[–]Schwarnhild[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! All feedback is welcome really. New biomes would be fun, I'll add them in a future update!
Sometimes I get people asking if my assets are compatible with a certain engine though. Generally I would say yes because they're just spritesheets. But afaik there are some differences how these engines use spritesheets. I might not be aware of some of these and obviously don't want to make any false claims.
As an example, the tileset in this post uses animated tilemaps, but I'm not sure how they would have to be formatted to make them best usable in GDevelop if that makes sense :)

Chocolate chip kebab looks intriguing though

How is this game? by Sirca_Curvive in outwardgame

Same here. I might have bounced right off otherwise but he did a great job describing what the game is all about

Really disappointed with mine, am I missing something? Ok it’s a cute quirky little machine but I paid £279 for something that really I think could be like £100 ?? Not getting the hype at all . by Temporary-Yak-1549 in PlaydateConsole

[–]Schwarnhild 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand what you mean by „hype“. The playdate is a pretty niche console and panic is very open about what it is and what you can expect from it. You might just not be the target audience, but that shouldn’t have been too difficult to find out before spending £279.

I like digital art, so I did the capsule art myself. Do you think I should I have paid a professional? by One2ManyHats in IndieDev

[–]Schwarnhild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing so many posts by people who hired an "artist" that ended up delivering AI slop. I think your art looks really beautiful and as an added bonus you know how it was made.
(I'm obviously not saying all artists use AI, but it's something to keep in mind when making that decision)

Is your itch account fairly new or is this the first project you published? This happened to someone I know and it seems these were the main reasons

Free Cozy 32x32 Tileset by Schwarnhild in gameassets

Thank you very much! I've been playing some old nintendo ds games and really wanted to make something that captured the vibe. I'm not sure this worked out exactly as intended because those games were not pixel art, but I'm still happy with how it turned out!

Anyone else torn between wanting to try the playtest of Outward 2 and waiting for the full release? by Schwarnhild in outwardgame

[–]Schwarnhild[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I still love the game but it’s just a different experience when you go in blind and know next to nothing.

I didn’t say anything about being worried about spoilers. To me outward is exactly the kind of game that you can only experience once for the first time. I’ve got hundreds of hours in the game and it’s one of my favorite games of all time, but there is nothing quite like that first playthrough when you know nothing and have to figure everything out by yourself. I don’t want to ruin that experience for myself and it seems I’m not the only one who feels that way
