Getting ready!

[pipasdefranilla]

i apologize if you're asked this frequently, but what software do you use for your animations? i'm looking to get more serious in digital art.

Hey!

So I don't know when you asked this or if I might have answered already, but thanks for the interest.

For my pixelart character animations I use PyxelEdit, since it's very useful for stuff like tilesets to see all frames at the same spot. I can set where the animation start or ends, and copy or move any frames with a couple of mouse clicks.

Now, for something like a scene with many moving pieces, I have used Photoshop a lot in the past, but recently I started working with Aseprite and I REALLY recommend it for that purpose. It's very easy to add frames without messing up anything and you don't need to use that many layers either.

It's been a while since I did non-pixelart animation but nowadays I have seen a lot of people using Blender or Clip Studio Paint. I'd recommend giving them a try.

Hello again, guys! Yesterday it was the #InternationalBatAppreciationDay so we decided to put together a gif with (some) of the bats you’ll be seeing in the game. 

Please check the Latka tag for more animations, or follow @latkadev for more general updates!

Somehow I forgot to post this video here, but we made a lot of progress with NPC animation at Latka by the end of last year. Here you can take a look at some of them with DimWiddy’s music to match!

I’m trying to get back into my pixel characters. I have a list with prompts on newgrounds that’s basically a number of games I finished recently, so let me know if you’d really like to see one of those get done soon.

Lowpoly Wardell & Niko from New Horizons / Happy Home Paradise. Those shirts took me a while!

In case you’re curious, I didn’t forget about Lottie: She was one of the first characters I made in this style, right before the game came out.

[pipasdefranilla]

Lowpoly Harriet! Her new look was different enough from the DS days for me to try this.

It's October so that means it's Luigi's Mansion season again. Prepare your vaccums, everyone!

[pipasdefranilla]

Hey everyone, I have opened an Etsy shop to sell my pixelart as cross stitch patterns and get some passive income. I’m @pipasdefranilla​ there as well if you want to check it out.

If you like the idea or know anyone who could be interested, please pass it around! I'm starting with the Luigi' Mansion sprites, but I want to post more in the future.

Harvest Moon-style game mockup. Riverbank/fishing area.

I later posted a fishing animation: https://pipasdefranilla.tumblr.com/post/189065003637/finished-fishing-animation-for-my-farming-game

[pipasdefranilla]

Thinking about going back to this mockup eventually to do more areas, improve the existing sprites and add some more animation.

Got any suggestions that you’d like to see?

More animation work I have made for Knot. It still has a long way to go, but with every extra animation I finish I feel more invested in it.

Feel free to ask anything about the project!

Let’s dance Disco!

Monster Hunter commission work based around this song.

[pipasdefranilla]

A bunch of animations I made in the past couple of weeks for “Knot” (pending subtitle), a short game set in the treetops that me and a couple of friends are making during the summer. I hope you guys find it interesting! I’ll let you all know once it’s getting closer to completion.

if u like momodora u might like timespinner

I didn't know about it but I I really like the snes-like palette and the animation quality, so that's enough to grab me, haha. I'll stay tuned for any eshop sales. Thanks a lot for for the suggestion! :)
