The Pixels Of Joxon

[recme]

I feel bad, it feels like this section is dying off from lack of criticism. I'd try and give some but most of the sprites here, they're far above my skill level.

the only reason its dying like this is because people dont want to give criticism to newbies who always have to defend their work. not only that, they always bitch about it and think they know what theyre talking about. we've been dealing with that sort of stuff for the past few years and im pretty sure everyone is just getting sick of it. myself included.

anyway, onward to the critique.

the problem with your mega man is that its very stiff and he looks awfully skinny. take a look at his nes sprite:



see how exaggerated the pose is? notice how one leg is way up there while the other one is just hanging? or how his arm that is shot straight up with energy, while the other is aiming carefully to its target.

you need this sort of liveliness in your sprites. sprites arent just images man. they can be people, houses, and other objects. try to implement some of the vividness onto these sprites.
