Some custom pipes I made

I like it but since I haven't seen the shyguy sprite or anything else I don't know if the lack of a outline is a good thing or bad thing.

Neither do i, but it doesn't mean i don't have it.

There are also other things that do gradients. Aswell as free trials of programs.

let me rephrase that the only program I have that does imaging is paint. I had a demo of paint shop pro last year that I used to make those terrible crayon sprites and tilesets I submitted a while ago but it has long since expired. What other programs use gradients I guarentee I don't have them I don't even have word.

Even still, Even picking Each and every lame colour by hand, does not excuse these Terrible excuses of pipes.

Here i made an example of what you could do to make, My pipes for example.. bigger.

Look, no half billion colors, it's 16 pixels wider then fat shy-guy from YI, and it looks nice.

Mind you i would of personally changed the shading if i wasn't doing this quickly, to give a slightly more rounded look, but this was quick.

Alright finally CONSTRUCTIVE critisism.

Every thing i posted was Constructive critisism, Scrap it and Start Anew.

I fail to see what's wrong with these, besides size. But that's why paint has the "Stretch/Skew" option. Good job, DL.

There's actually nothing wrong with these. They aren't useful with other sprites already available though.

Thank you

Dunno if these are supposed to be for GBA or DS or anything..

anyway the pipes top part are a bit too square. Round them up, not too much just like a rounded square.

Although it's probably is annoying but.. they do use up alot of colors

Using less might make it look better, not trying to be mean.. but Gradients are evil when it comes to pixel art.

And mabye hueshift them a bit

(example)


use this palette if you wish. If i were you you might wanna remake some, making a few could help you making these things even more
just trying to help you out.

These are kinda cool btw

The Josiah has spoken.

Well they arent really meant to be any style allthough in the fatshyguy game I made they were used with new super mario tiles
Yah they are a bit too square I will probably work on that
Oh and I dont use gradients all the green colors are from a forest picture I got of google and all the blues are from ultramarios avatar.


THANKS FOR THE CONSTUCTIVE CRITISISM! I will probably round the top part later today.

Woah, this isn't too good, how did you get so many colors in one sprite? not in MS paint i guess, and josiah said everything.

I've seen the name Albert123 associated with demonlemon before - I can't remember where, but I remember that it's him. So he isn't an impostor or anything.

I got the colors off of a picture of a forest and ultramarios avatar and I made this 100% in paint. And ya josiah definatly had alot of good points.

I think they're pretty good =)

And I think the shading is awesome

Check the mainsite for sprites.

Alright the update has smaller pipes that are more rounded. I think I will add connectors in the next update.

I like the second ones even more keep up the good work but again I'm not so sure about the outline but by it self the pipes are great.

You need to REALLY reduce colors.. I'm counting 208 on the green pipe alone, reduce it to a MAXIMUM of 16
