Just messing around with the limitations on Gbstudio today. Below I've had to break up a sprite into multiple sections to render in properly in engine. You can see it briefly when swapping from scene to scene!

Just thought I'd do an art dump while I work on my game! In the middle of the boring stuff now, copying scripts and actors from screen to screen so everything works ๐Ÿ˜…

Aw that's such a sweet comment, I started watching them all back in high-school myself. One of the first series I watched was jesse and TB playing Terraria

@jessecox.bsky.social 10 years ago I sent you a fan drawing while I was still in school and was absolutely blown away to discover you still had it! Today I proudly present a little cameo I made of you and Crendor in my first ever videogame! I hope you enjoy it!

So in order to run on original hardware it has to fit into a ratio of 160ร—144 which means all assets have to fit on a screen that large. This means character sprites have to stay within or near 16ร—16 pixels, adding outlines makes it larger in both dimensions by 2 pixels meaning you've got 14 left

Honestly for me it comes down to pixel ratios and hard black outlines. Some of the most iconic games from the era, Mario land 2, the oracle zelda games and pokemon all share a hard outline on all character and icons. It looks clean but some objects can be hard to draw with such little real-estate.

When I was a kid, During math tests and the like I always used to doodle in the margins of my paper, I haven't stopped that habit to this day ๐Ÿ˜… although now a days instead of stick floating islands and stick figures I've fallen into the habit of drawing eyes ๐Ÿ‘€
