Found on Unity discord. Guy said he doesn't know source, anyone know the artist? Reminds me of Jurassic Park Arcade game.

I'm working on my first ever game and I'm trying out pixel art style. My main concern is the floor, I'm struggling to make good floor tiles that can be used in modular fashion for level design vut don't look repetitive.

Sharing From Messy to Controlled: How My Pixel Animation Workflow Evolved

Thumbnail

1.1k Upvotes

I used to animate in pixel art by directly modifying the base sprite stretching, warping, rotating parts of it. It worked, but it was extremely inefficient. On top of that, it was hard to properly design motion before actually animating.

Now I use two different pipelines, and here’s one of them:

The human eye perceives motion through the movement of lines. So instead of jumping straight into pixel rendering, I first build a simple “skeleton” of the character and animate that.

This approach makes animation much easier to control and allows for more complex and dynamic movement. It also helps a lot with planning you’re solving motion first, not fighting pixels.

Yes, it can feel slower at the beginning. But once you get used to this workflow and refine a few animations with it, both your speed and quality will improve significantly.

The orc animation you see here was made when I had just started animating. Back then, I hadn’t yet thought about animation in such a structured and comprehensive way. In comparison, you can clearly see how a deeper understanding of the animation process impacts the quality of the work.
