Rooms, and how I digitize my art

The Dream of Shadowlands Episode 2
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Who could have guessed it, I show you guys more rooms today! The rooms in this video conclude the first quarter of the temple, so we've knocked a decent chunk out of the episode's map already! In addition, I discuss a new feature I have planned for the game, where you are able to talk to Jyl in the pause menu to get some hints on where to go or what to do when you're stuck. So, while working on the sprite for this new feature, I decided to use it as an opportunity to show you guys my process for making my traditional art into game-ready sprite art! (Well, save for the filters I put on them to make everything look like an old anime like noise and chromatic aberration). I hope this was interesting for you guys to see! I want to start livestreaming some of my digitizing process once I start converting the room art into sprites, let me know if that sounds cool!
