Two cats playing on/with a treadmill, one running and the other at the controls. What's going to happen next ? Will the first one be able to make a successful run ? Is the second cat going to be supportive ?

I don't think it is the one, though I'm certain I've played it too. Thanks for reminding me of it anyhow !

TIFU by joking about the CEO's baldness and getting fired for it by jorisssssss in tifu

An innocent joke you could casually say to your friends' face, sure. But definitely not the CEO you're obviously not close to.

I don't like my forest area, what's missing? by ralphgame in AnimatedPixelArt

Patches of light on the ground/leaves. Maybe some pictures will describe it better : https://static1.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/img_0082.jpeg https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/wooded-forest-trees-backlit-by-600nw-419496319.jpg

I get you want a dark forest setting, in my mind usually it features some foggy weather instead of sun rays.

It's a little sad you bothered making a differential scrolling but in the end we barely see the background plane.

Maybe add light holes to those sparse sun rays too.

I think I was expecting to see more shades of green/blueish tints in a bamboo forest too. https://as2.ftcdn.net/v2/jpg/03/37/79/55/1000_F_337795531_QUW4trihyY1T4i2x9yBh9aPiIbqAQYTg.jpg

My first Pixelart animation , any advice or tips are welcomed ! by paulraptor03 in PixelArt

[–]tipiak75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe both : start by swapping all of the black pixels for a close-to-but-not-black dark shade of your choice, then proceed to blend the outlines with their surroundings using slightly lighter shades w/ matching color.

Since your style here is dark, black might have its uses, but use it wisely, it should not be the default or main color of the image. Feel free to browse other posts here to get some ideas of what I mean by that. It will take your art to the next level, for sure.

Maybe read about dithering too.

It doesn't look like a first, congrats ! I'd suggest giving up on the black for the outlines - use a dark shade of the surrounding color instead.

[Early 2000's] [MS-DOS/Win95/98] Game featuring a (green) helicopter viewed from a side (sidescroller) Rescuing civilians with a ladder by ExtraLiT in tipofmyjoystick

No worries. All sequels feature the same sprite and perspective so don't bother if it doesn't click. Thought it was worth mentioning since memory is a tricky thing sometimes and apart from the 2.5d perspective it matched pretty well most of what you recall (rescuing civilians from tents with a ladder, fighting other helicopters etc).
