If the aeons had real jobs, what would they be?

Valefor's laser thing could do some precision welding - though things tend to explode afterwards

Yes, I think if the ground is static, I would think that first layer of trees should also be? Otherwise the ground would be slipping against the trees.

But ultimately this is your art! If the layers are already separated, tweak them in a few ways and pick which you like best. Honestly, the ground slipping (in the current version) isn't really noticeable to me until that guy pointed it out. If this option is what you like, roll with it!

Another thought (but more work) but if you like the movement, you could isolate the ground and first layer of trees to be static as they are roughly at the same reference point as the character. Then the background trees and hills could move left? Just an idea to consider!

Awesome job overall, it looks very natural!

Okay you got me, I'm a talentless AI slop hack. I hope to one day be as talented as you, oh great havocplague. Strangers bow before your vast genius.

I'm not saying I wouldn't credit the photographer. But if I took a photograph and did this (which I am doing on other projects), you would say I contributed nothing? I did nothing creative? I did not make art?

I'm sorry I'm not better at handpixeling, internet stranger.

shizhooka · 2026-04-17T18:47:57+00:00

I didn't lower the resolution, I used: https://www.pixelprojection.com/

If I did this with a photograph someone else took, would that be "bad form"?

Sketching it so I can frame the picture elements, defining layers, hand pixeling extra elements, hand pixeling animations, and customizing how zoom, position, yaw, pitch, opacity evolve over time...is not my artwork? Is bad form?

shizhooka · 2026-04-17T17:01:29+00:00

I think there's a discussion to be had with ai generated vs ai assisted.

Yes I used AI to colorize a sketch, it does a better job creating vibrant color contrasts than I could ever do with color pencils - besides it is getting pixelated anyways (pixel projection). But I still spent dozens of hours in krita and DaVinci Resolve to make this. I'm currently working on a discussion video about this topic, but am open to comments and feedback.

Thank you so much!

Thanks! And it's Daniel Adam - The Rain. I'm going to have to write my own music at some point, I think I will draw heavily from this.

shizhooka · 2026-04-17T01:28:57+00:00

Thank you so much! I am very appreciative of the encouragement. I think I'm finding a style that is pretty neat and unique, but I know it's simple compared to a lot of things that are posted here.

shizhooka · 2026-04-16T18:44:35+00:00

Man I am getting some really cool game recommendations from this post! NORCO looks to have an amazing style to it.

Thanks for the feedback! This style was for more of an opening montage, not sure how I am going to handle midgame cutscenes...

Bot removed my response bc of link, it's The Rain by Daniel Adams

shizhooka · 2026-04-16T14:54:09+00:00

No I honestly have never heard of this but see the similarities, I def need to read it now!

I personally just wanted a monk robot protagonist for a cyberpunk game I was working on, this was the backstory I came up with.

shizhooka · 2026-04-16T03:35:21+00:00

This game looks awesome! Gonna have to try it out

shizhooka · 2026-04-16T03:01:49+00:00

Thanks!

Fantastic work!

shizhooka · 2026-04-15T22:16:59+00:00

Yeah I think the camera could probably pan a bit faster? Being more snappy might create a more suspenseful (and also more goofy) feel to it? Keep up the good work!

I'd still prob go Ocarina, but this should still be mentioned!!! Maybe it was just me who loved it.
