WOW, good doesnt even begin to describe this.
on a side note, how did you stay under the tile limit?
I did that accidentally a few minutes ago, so maybe. For the Jam, try to at least have the original 160x144px as the cover if all else fails. You can to use paint or an online upscaler if you keep to doubling the size, like to 200% or 400% it shouldn't damage the pixels.
In any case, the original will show the organizers its an actual entry at least even if upscaled to hell
Before I commit, I was thinking of trying to draw a coin from Legacy of Kain, with the quote:" ... suppose you throw a coin enough times... suppose one day, it lands on its edge." But Im not sure if I wouldnt be out of the theme. I didnt do it before because I just now read the post about thinks from franchises being allowed.
So what do you guys think?
English is not my first language, but lets go. I finished the one from last year with 96 tiles I think, I was so afraid of the limit I kept repeating details. I never did something bigger than 64x64 too so I didnt know what to do with the space, so there was that.
For this one, well, I started trying to do someone balancing in a rope, thinking about the guy that stayed for hours between two high rises. Them I realized anatomy is even harder on 1bit after failing to do legs for 3 hours. I them heard my friends and tried to do a cat balancing on a wall. Cats are anatomy too, go figure...
I Them spent most of today making the balance from the egyptian myth, looking here I realize I was not the only one with that idea and that somehow Im both lacking details and at 140 tiles. I then decided to try and see if I could make the coin balanced on its edge from legacy of kain. Perspective and anatomy, and I cant find a single reference of the game where raziel is both looking sideways and not crouching to make him in the coin like your profile picture. I honestly dont know if I keep trying to improve the balance, even tough the perspective is messed up but I cant shade due to 1bit without destroying stuff, or if I full send into the coin and hope I do good enough to make it clear it is about balance.
