Nice job Ryan. Liked the spooky series. Made a Simon Belmont of my own. Would like to see some 16-bit sprites done. Richter Belmont and Alucard have always been on my list to make, but they are a “bit” more complex than 8-bit sprites and require more colors to bring out the contrast. Any plans to do a video with tips on doing 16-bit sprites?
I love the sprite art in all the pixel Castlevania games! 16-bit is most definitely where it's at. Yes, I'll make a video showing how to do more complex sprites soon. Yes, with the more complex sprites...comes more shades and variations so it can get tricky, but I'll definitely have another video at some point with the 16-bit sprites. If you want to share your Simon Belmont, send a picture to nostalgicnicknack@gmail.com and I'll feature it in a future video, if you'd like! Thanks for checking out the series and thank you for your comments! Glad you've enjoyed it. More to come! - Ryan
Awesome, I’m glad you came across this video! You’re very welcome. What do you love most about Ghosts n’ Goblins? It’s so insanely hard for me, but I love the sprite work!
It's interesting - I'm of the age where I played the original NES quite a bit, but there are a couple seminal games I never played. Ghosts n' Goblins is one of them. The mini history lesson is super fun as well as the sprites come to life. Fun to see. Do you have an Instagram account? I recently started posting pixel art there and what you do would translate well there too.
I appreciate you checking out the video! It’s definitely a classic. I'd recommend checking it out ...but man, oh man.. it's pretty difficult! I’m always happy to share my love of pixel art and gaming history...so much fun to learn about the development of these games. I do have an Instagram, but don't post too often. My handle is nostalgicbeadlife, I'd love to see your pixel art! What's your instagram? Check out some of my other videos for more classics! Thanks for your comment! - Ryan
Who was your favorite baddie from Ghosts n” Goblins? 👹
What a throwback! Thanks for creating and sharing this fuse bead tribute to one of the most punishing games of all time.
Thank you so much! I’m still haunted by the countless spawning monsters! Some would say....traumatized! 😱😱😱
