I'm glad that you liked it!

Hello! I had the same problem and managed to solve it. I'm not sure if this is going to work for you, but it's worth a try:

When you're going to export for web, go into the Options Tab, look for "Canvas Resize Policy" and make it "Adaptative". Hopefully, this may solve your problem.

I see, definitely! Honestly, I'm still learning how to draw backgrounds/landscapes.  It's a long term journey, probably without end! I use the Youtube school. So, here are my recommendations (they are not related to pixel art, however, they greatly helped me to improve):

• Jordan Grimmer's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@JordanGrimmer/videos
• Philip Sue Art's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@philipsue_art/videos
• The Creative Space's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@davidjosephcreativespace/videos
  

Outside of that, I watched tons of Bob Ross videos and many nature related documentaries! Developing love for nature also helps, because that will fill you with enthusiasm to learn and be inspired to make better art. Turning everything into pixels is the easiest part, because it will feel like painting. It takes time, so be patient.

But if you need something REALLY fast, briefly I can say: 

• Do some concepts and composition sketches (without worrying about colors and details)
• Try to go with greyscale alone (working only with values, lights and shadows)

When you're satisfied with the results...

• Make strong use of layers, and start working from background layers towards foreground
• Do thumbnails (in really small resolutions), until you're satisfied. If the landscape doesn't work well in thumbnail format, the chances are that it won't look good in bigger resolutions. But don't be discouraged if that happens. It's very easy to correct digital art!
• Increase the resolution and start adding small details and character
• Add color! Try experimenting with saturation, light and blend modes

Pixel Art. All the above can be called a pre-work to making a pixel version of the landscape. It will save you tons of time, because you will be able to envision the whole piece and still have many problems that could arise in the process already solved.

Most importantly... have FUN! Don't turn it into a chore. Also, let go perfeccionism. Just be happy with what you can accomplish, and gradually keep improving, step by step.

That's it!

Hello! I'm scheduling a sale that will include all 3 seasons tomorrow. If you're interested, stay tuned!

I`m currently developing a game, so it`s really hard to tell. That`s why I can`t promise anything for now.

Hey! Unfortunately, I cannot afford to do that for the time being. If someday I come back to it, I may consider it!

Thank you!

You're welcome! Thanks!

Hey, kitarp06!

No. Magic spells belongs to the Complete Set Season 2, available here: https://kiddolink.itch.io/vfx-complete-set-season-2-pixel-art

Hey, triplejumpgames!

There is no single pack that includes all VFX asset packages. However, from time to time, I usually make a special sale that includes all of them. If you are willing to wait, maybe I might consider to open the sale again this month. It's called VFX-fy your Life!!! This link: https://itch.io/s/75225/vfx-fy-your-life

Other than that, getting the Complete sets 1, 2 and 3 is another way to get all VFX made so far.

You're welcome! And have a good game devving!

Hey, Dreemore! Thanks for the suggestion! If I come back to work on these, I'll definitely consider it.

Hey, Ali ALC! I assume that you're referring to the sprite sheet of the energy beams effects. If so, I just uploaded the file with a transparent background (resolution of 96x96). The file is called: sprite_sheet_96x96_TRANSPARENT_BACKGROUND.png. It's available for download. If you need any help, please let me know.

You're welcome! And Happy New Year!

Hello, Elbody! Glad to know that the assets are being useful in your project. Your words are INVIGORATING!

Very nice! Programming is a very essential and powerful skill for game development. In the beginning, it's always a very humbling experience. But it gets more and more exciting as proficiency starts to set in. Interesting, challenging and fun, that's how programming should be!

Elbody, I wish you all the best! That may you reap all the good fruits of your efforts by dedicating to your game! Treasure the lessons that you learn along the way. Remember, it's a journey!

Hello, Gameberhood!

I'm very busy with work. However, looking at the animation that you showed, it would not be difficult to add similar animations to this SLASH VFX package, if that's what you mean by availability for work. Although I cannot promptly promised anything, maybe I can add similar animations to this pack soon as an update.

Now, if by availability for work you mean commision work, then unfortunately, I'm not.

Hey, threeearedbear!

Very nice game! I liked the idea of combining the potions around the items as a gimmick. Good job!

Jerenaux, thank you very much for the support!

I just played your game here. Amazing work! Here is my feedback:

• Gameplay: I liked the turn-based cooldown approach mechanics. It's very different than what I'm used to, but it works very well with just a couple of characters. I think that if the party size gets too big, that may be an issue though. Also, I think I found a bug in the tutorial. The yellow mark that show the movement range stopped working right after a second group came to my aid (I was losing in the tutorial). I didn't manage to get that yellow grid for movement to show again after the second group settled in. In relation to the characters vocations, I enjoyed the warrior and specially the black mage classes, but I didn't manage to be able to heal more than once per battle with the healer. It would be nice if the healing ability could regenerate. Or maybe I just don't know how to do that just yet. I played on casual and got destroyed hahaha. The matchmaking is working very well too.
• Audio: The BGM is fits very well with the arena atmosphere. The sound effects are also on the spot. Subtle and nice to hear, giving more life and a nice vibe to the battles.
• Graphics: The HUD, the Fonts, the character sprites, including the tileset and effects, everything reads very well. I liked the clean interface.

Your game is impressive! I'm glad that you found use for the assets in it!

Hey, Jerenaux!

If you want, you can kindly share the use you make with the assets right here, in the comment section.

Arte muito bonita e estudo bem documentado!

Thank you, kazoodev!

Hey, x_ISHIMURA_x!

There is a special sale going on for only those individuals who have bought all assets packs individually. This sale gives them access to the same assets grouped by sets, which includes the Complete Sets 1, 2 and 3. The sale is available here: https://itch.io/s/69097/-special-offer-for-owners-of-all-effects only for those who have bought ALL assets.

I hope this helps!

Thank you very much! Have fun!

Hello! Here is the link: https://itch.io/s/75225/vfx-fy-your-life

Hey, sbk0135!

In June. It will start in the next week.

Cheers!

Hey, Kerry Codev! I'm planning to do a bundle sale in the middle of next month which will include all VFX assets released so far. This sale goes by the title "VFX-fy your LIFE!!!". Before that, I still plan to make a sale with the VFX Complete Set Vol 3. Basically, that's the schedule.

I have no plans to release new VFX assets in pixel art for now. I'm busy working on game projects.

Cheers!

Yes, of course!

Thank you very much, siwoku!

At some point I'll take up this project again. I learned a lot since then, so everything will probably be REenvisioned (character, environment and game mechanics).

Hey, dmkdev!

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, I don't do commissions.

Great! Good to know.

Greetings, everyone!

I just release my new collection of 2D Digital Effects, containing 12 effects of elemental fx's, such as smoke, electricity, sparks and fire! You can see all of them in the web application.

Here is the link:

Here are the screenshots:

Have a nice week!

Alright, the offer is up now! Here is the link for it:

https://itch.io/s/69097/-special-offer-for-owners-of-all-effects

If everything works for you, please, let me know.

Thanks!

Hey, ZeroStatic!

First of all, thank you so much for supporting my work! I appreciate it.

I thought about a solution for this that will apply for everybody who owns every single individual vfx asset package (not the collections). Very soon, I'll make a special "sale" that will allow individuals that are in the situation that I mentioned above to have the right to Claim the Complete Sets 1, 2 and 3. This special "sale" will only be visible for those who own all individual vfx assets. I'll leave this offer available for a long time (maybe months), just to make sure that the people that are interested in this, may also suit themselves.

I'm preparing this. When everything is ready, I'll say so right here!

Thanks!

Hey! I fixed now. Thanks.

Really nice game!

Oh, I see. Unfortunately, I do not have them because I recorded only a few. It didn't occur to me that people would be interested. Maybe I should record more often!

Hello!

The "VFX-fy your LIFE!!!" bundle is a sale event, that I run from time to time. If you have any questions about the asset packages, feel free to kindly ask them here or in any page pertaining to asset packs.
