Hello!
I recommend you to add 24x24 tag
It is a very wise idea. You have a potential to reach those wizards (if you haven't become one of them yet) ...
Read about LPC. Liberated Pixel Cup is a project of OGA you could see there assets with [LPC] part in the start of the
I don't think that itch isn't good for CC0 and collaboration at least when combined together. I saw many times when people set in metadata "it is CC0" but in description they write something like "no redistribution". And it is sad because I am one of the reasons that it happens... Most people on itch is about honor of an artist. Such people usually can't get along too long. At least if there will be one donation to the collaborative pack there will be some fights... And itch is more about centralization. Do you think it will live enough long with centralization? I like the way of lpc on OGA. There just a bunch of assets of different artist. with a [LPC] part in the name and it fits other tiles of this incredibly world.
quantity-over-quality
It is good to accommodate as many people as possible but I don't really think it is a good idea to sacrifice one style. It will more likely look like several packs merged into one and it would have sense if someone continues it but... It is again often against honor of creator.
“sci-fi top down rpg, endesga32, 24x24px”
I won't say anything specific about that except this emoji ≽^•⩊•^≼
thats 100% free to use and expand.
That's why I use only CC licenses for art and only open-source licenses for code
P.S In general I thought about it and want to do something like it. I really like this idea but I think we need something like in-between of follow style and do whatever you want while follow some very wide restrictions
I've been thinking last days about creation of new project/series of jams based on this idea. it is also partially reminds Fuck Capitalism Jam. So I wanted to give it a name by twisting two words: insane and world/land. As you could understand from the name the idea is to uncover insanity and stupidity of our world. There are many insane things people see every day and can't understand it is insane or stupid... Just a veil which doesn't let you to see through it... The idea was is to collect explanations. In different forms: game, art, book, essay, literally almost any medium... I even drew one drawing about proprietary software
Yeah pallete wasn't bad but 16 colors is too restrictive for me and there was 8 pairs of colors without intermediate so it was a bit of a challenge for me
Honestly, as I said earlier I also didn't plan to make art but I decided to try to create a game. But game needs assets so I started drawing. I usually don't finish everything I start so I ended up with unfinished asset pack instead of a game prototype... I've just thought, I've finished only 3 packs: rocks, bushes and jewelries 🤔 And none finished games
Anyway it seems to me that I spent all the passion that I had at that moment for drawing banner for pixel asset pack jam so I stopped drawing this pack and even didn't start drawing any portraits even though I had two weeks. So it seems to me I see a pattern if jam has a great banner, I more likely won't participate in it by itself.
They are very quality so it you can just not to submit the pack to the jam buy upload it as an asset pack on itch.
I understand your concerns. Your thinking is very correct but there some "but's":
So I just decided to kill two rabits with one shot. The elementals part is what I wanted to draw and just decided to add it because it is something like theme while the main "theme" of the jam is restriction
The vibrant colors is really a challenge concretely for you. I noticed that you usually avoid them but it is a jam and as I noticed you usually like drawing challenges so I added it as another point
Auto portrait of account portrait :D
What is it? I see a bird, mermaid and deer but what is on the first image? Goblin or whatever it is...? I don't know, it doesn't look like any demon or something like any lower infernal creatures.... At the same time it doesn't look like higher infernal creature so what is it?
