Nothing new to show for now, but I went back to this for a bit, and I realised my palette remapping was kind of useless if I didn't also make sure to remap b&w pixels to fully occupy the 0 to 1 range, so I changed that (with a quick python script), and also made a test material for preview purposes

Trying out a fun shader setup for that 2.5d prototype I had in mind! The texture on the right acts as a gradient map (left) and a palette (right) and color switching is done with bilinear filtering, which allows for basic day/night palette cycling :) with an 8x8 texture, each row is equal to 3 hours

There was this one man at PAP who took the controller, stood there arms crossed and looked at the full display. Seeing him appreciating what I had made in perfect silence might be one of my most validating experiences, right next to @tahk0.bsky.social saying "I like how you make your eyes" :D

Some of the highlights: πŸŽ‰ A few people actually went through my entire display and some even looked at all the alternative palettes! People smiling/laughing when they finished the microgame An attendee gave us sweets at the beginning Visits by other exposing artists, mostly towards the end!

He wasn't the only person who did this, but I was so pleasantly surprised to see someone actually use the program I had made for the even to its fullest; later on, other people looked at the full display (and palettes!) and it was just as wonderful as the first time

I also overheard two people saying one of my keychain characters was doing a jojo pose, and it made me chuckle because I 100% knew who they were talking about (they were talking about them)

2 weeks ago, I attended β€œPixel Art Park” for the first time. It was such a wonderful time. I had never tabled outside of Europe. The feedback was so heartwarming and positive. Wow! Thank you to all visitors from Japan and abroad! ⭐️ ζ―ŽεΊ¦γ‚γ‚ŠγŒγ¨γ†γ”γ–γ„γΎγ™οΌ

I'm so happy people are liking them; I was scared they would be received more poorly than batch 1, but I'm really, really relieved to be proven wrong so far!

The character pack udate is now live on itch ! New characters, new skins, portraits and emotes. 🌸

Things are getting worse in France, and I'm genuinely really, really scared. I meant it when I said each day was more outrageous than the last; yesterday, Macron decided he'd stop all "illegitimate" protests tomorrow (aka not started by unions). Some but not all cities have overturned the decision

I'm scared for pretty much everyone, and I'm extremely fearful of what may come next (esp. after the 2027 elections). I'll keep making little guys for as long as I can, as it's one of the few things that still bring me joy and whimsy. Love you all...

Previously I have posted about a Nintendo of Europe downloadable premium animated wallpaper that featured a bizarre Toad eating the wallpaper. The files have finally been datamined, allowing the Wallpaper-Eating Toad to be observed in never-before-seen maximum quality.

Haven't done #PortfolioDay in a hot minute. Hi, i'm nocti, a queer Indian pixel artist that loves anything whimsical/fantasy with a sprinkle of the spooks. I've got a soft spot for worm-tailed critters and eight legged dogs. [Links and things : linktr.ee/noctilucax ] #pixelart

Hi, everyone! I'm still working hard on the Katana ZERO DLC. We made it bigger. It's the size of a full sequel, plus a soundtrack of over 30+ new songs. More updates to come. Thanks for your continued support!

Here's the set so far (the plan is doing kanto+johto and cross-gen evos)! All of the scenes on the right follow the 4 color per 8x8px restriction; 2-3 ramps from the dedicated 6 color palette. On the left you can also find 4 color versions, like the original TCG GB game!

Here's something I can post! A new collection of GBC #pokemon TCG-like #pixelart warmups done during this month! Oddish line, my beloved. 6 colors each (no real gbc restriction, but they should be doable with a few ramps per 8x8px and a sprite layer on top, like YuGiOh Dark Duel)

Look at all of them... #pixelart 13/25

I'm currently redrawing/"fixing" all of the little guys I made while in Japan (on my phone while I was on the train or on the flight back home). I'm mainly looking for a nice 1:1 scale result as the phone preview is either too small or slightly incorrect!

I'll try to make a bigger mockup in the next few days when/if I get the time :)

the plan so far is the following : each texture is in black & white, I might even pack them by groups of 3 or 4 (using r/g/b/a channels); for each texture, also make an 8 by 8 grid with the grayscale gradientmap on the left and the palettes for all 3-hour groups on the right.

Still really, really proud of the teardrop shader I made for this piece :)

You're lost, deep below the earth. Or was it way above ground? Nothing makes sense anymore. Fear is making your synapses start to burst (They actually are very nice and just want to show you their Galette Charentaise recipe) #pixelart #blender

The situation is bad over here. The police is mutilating kids, the government is more fascistic every day:pm saying "you're either with the police or with destructive rioters", curfews (one of which was breached by nenonazis without any kind of reprimand),accusing/wanting to ban political opponents

That last one's pretty bad; we're now getting reports that police officers and intelligence employees were told to accuse the major left-leaning opposing party of being the organisers of the oct. 17th protests. Each and every day is more outrageous than the last

weird to see english-language media go with "France being France lol" instead of focusing on the violent, unabashed repression & criminal behaviour by the police yeah a building burnt but, you know, kids are being mutilated so
