Over the years I’ve tried many ways to sort color palettes. This is a compilation of different strategies: Hilbert curves, ΔE graphs, PCA, and TSP-style optimization: all trying to answer the same question: what is the “smoothest” order of colors? -> no clear winner: codepen.io/meodai/full/...

I'm old. If you're not, listen to this. Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder. Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever. It's literally never been more important.

Shoutout to all #pixelart friends! I have had requests for a couple of jobs that I cannot take on, and have been asked to point them in the direction to anyone available. If you are looking for work, reply with some examples of your work and a link to a portfolio and I will point them to this 🧵

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models. In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

Hi eveyone, it's been almost 2 months since I last posted here (I think?). But I wanted to give you a fun challenge if you wanna join me: Making a character you like on a 32x32 canvas, that is the only limitation, here is a WIP of a Samus redesign I did on my style for the example!

If you wanted no leaks you should have gone into Settings -> Security -> Configure privacy & security -> Privacy options -> Other -> Configure -> Media interface and clicked “Disallow.” The Leak setting is on by default but we understand your privacy is important so we’ve made it easy to opt out

Some people think game dev an indulgent hobby, but I've never worked so hard, risked so much, overcame so many challenges, or faced so many fears in my life. The level of expectation and lack of resources to live up to them is insane. Please support indie devs. We need it. patreon.com/cheekynauts

It's so hard to associate an issue with a PR on GitHub using this field, you cannot even paste the URL. If the original description of the PR didn't contain something like "fix #issue" it will be really hard to associate issue <-> PR

i think if you want to get into pixel art, pixel dailies is a great way to start. make something small every day, and people will usually see it because of the PD community. when i was starting out, it was a big help to my consistency and i felt like my work was actually being seen!!

Game I did all the art for is launching in two weeks on the Switch. Also possible to pre-order right now if you're interested

Two weeks until Nintendo Switch™ launch of Savant - Ascent REMIX. We are excited! The game hit #Steam last year, but porting to console is just such a different hurdle. This is the first project we've ported ourselves - so please wish us luck 🤞😬

I'm so excited for the release of Loco Motive today! I've been doing animations for them for a year or so, and one of my favorite (despite its simplicity, ahah) happens to be spoiler free, so... 😜 #pixelart #animation
