Thanks!

The sprite sheet is organized vertically by animation to make it easy to see which animation is what. I have added animation labels in the past, but that was eventually deemed unnecessary. I also try to make the dimensions of the sprite sheet a base 2 number so if developers want to scale up the images, there's less of a chance they'll end up with mixels or blurring in the process. And, I try to limit the size of the sprite sheets out of respect for the developer's computer storage; This sometimes means sprites are a little cramped.

I've found that every game developer has their own way of doing things and there isn't an "industry standard" for sprite sheet organization. But, devs can easily organize the sprites in a way that makes the most sense to them and their project.

So to summarize, a lot of thought goes into making these sprite sheets as accessible to dev's as possible. I understand that some sprites are more intuitive than others, but if you have any specific questions or concerns about what sprite is what, feel free to email me: lightoutonfifth@gmail.com

What is the point of this post?

Double check your payout settings. From what I've heard, that tends to be a common issue. You can also try asking about this issue on Discord 

When you publish a project, your followers are notified (depending on your and their settings). So it makes the most sense to publish projects at a time when your followers would be able to play the game (e.g. in the evening or on weekends).

Aw dang it, seriously???

Have you tried playing a game not in RPG Maker, such as something on Steam or itch.io, to make sure it's just an issue with RPGMaker?

If it's not a problem with your computer, you could try resetting the settings in RPGMaker to default settings to see if that fixes the issue. You may have accedently changed a setting that messes with controlling characters 

Could you provide more information? Are you advertising a game server or looking for one? And what is the game server for?

Please include NSFW in your titles in the future. Some of use don't want to see stuff like this 

There are subreddits for asking people to play your game, I'm also pretty sure there was a post thread specifically for YouTubers looking for games to play here on itch.io

???????????

Can you provide more information? Are these games, jams, or something else? What do the dates mean? This post is very confusing...

I'm in the process of creating a website for my creative endeavors in the game art/game dev world, but I'm a little stuck on how the website should look and feel. 

  • What types of things do you expect to find on an artist's or game developers personal website? 
  • Are there any examples of really professional or cool websites that you think I should take inspiration from? 
  • If you have a portfolio website or general website for your work, I would love to take a look at it 

Thanks!

Hello Lila! Nice catch! The license has now been added. And I will definitely take into consideration your request, thanks!

Each individual sprite was made in a 32x32 canvas 

Amazing. The trampoline shot the gnomes over the well which just added to the chaos

Yeah, it's a server-side issue. I think someone else mentioned they were getting a 502 error from cloudflare

I do wonder how many useful responses you'll get from posting on itch.io since, from my experience, the majority of people on this site are independent game developers. DEI doesn't affect you when you're working by yourself or as part of a small group of hobbyists.

Earlier today, I was notified that some images in one of my project listings were not loading. Just now, I noticed that my profile picture at the top of the screen, in the nav bar, won't load either. 

Is anyone else having issues with images loading on the site?

I'm experiencing a similar issue. I guess it's a site wide thing?

That's so weird! Thanks for letting me know

I'm looking for Visual Novels that can be played by young kids. A lot of VN on here are obviously made for older audiences (and thats cool, mature themes have a time and place), and it can be hard to sort through all the romance and horror without the option to exclude tags. 

So, I'm looking for personal recommendations from y'all. I really like the game Posey Picks, so games similiar to that would be ideal.

I recently made a fun little frogs asset pack and it wasn't until I went to save it that I realized I had already made some frog sprites a long time ago! I thought it might be fun to take a look at how much my style has changed since I first started doing pixel art. I wonder how much it will have changed in another few years?

If you have any examples of how your style has changed over the years, I'd love to see them!

I hate to break it to you, but with few exceptions any popular website that allows users to upload their own content will have porn on it. Even YouTube Kids has content that is inappropriate for children. 

If you do not want you game to be available on the same website where there is porn available, tbh I think your only options are to either 1. Work with a game website that has a thorough approval process (e.g. Cool Math Games) or 2. Create your own website for your game.

I'd like to come up with some type of project young kids (ranging from 5 to 9 years old) could help with. Of the 8 to 12 kids in the group, a couple of them may be able to grasp the very basics of coding, but the project would need to cater to the skill set of the younger kids so they don't feel left out.

I think the best way to go about it is have them draw characters that I can scan in and add as just pngs to the game with some simple animations (squash and stretch animation, jumping, etc). I'd also want them to provide input on how the game looks to a limited extent (i.e. provide 1 to 3 options for them to pick from)

So far, I've considered doing a simple platform game (the easiest option), a visual novel (a bit harder), or a monster catcher (most difficult for me personally to make from scratch).

I'm looking for ideas and resources for this activity. This game project would only be used to keep a group of kids busy and engaged for an hour or so over the span of a couple of days. It would also not be posted publicly 

if there isn't one, someone should atleast organize a virtual conference over Zoom or Discord. I would totally attend something like that

You may want to provide examples or more information about what you are asking. I'm not sure what you're talking about

Seconding this. I don't use Unity, but I assume there's a way to add objects using the built in tools. Trying to do what you're describing with pre-made assets would just be unnecessary work

What a fun concept!

very nice

I'd look into the Creative Commons license and find music that uses it.

If you're on mobile, yeah. If you're in PC there's a few ways around it. A few people have already posted methods to remove the greyscale

Yes, we're gonna need more information about the project before we can offer any help or advice. What are the players supposed to be learning? Is this going to be a 2d or 3d game?

What type of games are you hoping to develop?

You are the best!

Art that isn't A.I....

Unless he's posting on Discord from beyond the grave, Leafo is very much alive

The weird thing is he's been active on Discord responding to other people's questions while some people have been discussing the greyscale issue, but he hasn't acknowledged it in any way shape or form

That's probably it

I respectfully disagree. When you make changes like this to your website, those changes need to be communicated to your users. I was worried that there was something wrong with my account or my account had been suspended. 

I wonder if it depends on where you live? Are you located in the U.S.?
