    Dude, it's your attention to detail that gets me every time.. Extra pixels on Fizz's hair, his belt, Shel's insignia, extra highlight pixels on Cora's face, etc.. My favorite in this cast has to be either Jemm or Fizz

    The naming scheme is genius! Not only did you make some very stylized sprites, but also you created characters that would fit a fighting game. This goes to show just how many things can become characters in their own right. Very masterfully done.

    One of my favorite things about your pixel art is watching you make it as simple as humanely possible, in color and size, while still keeping it dynamic and readable. I love simplicity in my own drawings, but you make me seem like a maximalist at times haha

  • @oscarjimenez88
    @oscarjimenez88 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dude the creativity here is just insane. I agree with a lot of the commenters here; those texts are phenomenal. The way they bring in little elements of the character. My favorite is Cora's pulse detail in the lettering with the tiny heart. Insanely good work. Your videos have reinvigorated my passion for this art style. Looking forward to watching literally everything else you've put out. Thanks and keep up the amazing work! You are a treasure dude.

    Did anyone mention that “gom” is Korean for “bear” (곰), and “gomi” would be a totally natural way in Korean to turn it into a name (maybe like “Beary”)?

    • @timothymclean
      @timothymclean 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Somehow, that comment made me think of Teddie from Persona 4, which made me imagine Gomi spouting off as many terrible bear puns as he does, and I can't decide if that ruins or improves him.

    I can already see this being a pocket sized fighting game irl. Call it "Food Fight" or something. Loved these designs, I think Fizz and Shel were my favorite.

    • @timothymclean
      @timothymclean 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was thinking that most of the cast has a food theme. (Cora and Jemm need something else to make them fit the guys, though. Shouldn't be hard for Cora, but the only ring food I can think of is ring pops, and that's too specific.)

I've been watching you for a little while now, I'm learning pixel art for game dev purposes. I always had a feeling you were Canadian, and then in one video you spelled colour with a 'u' which hinted even more. Now that you said you paid CDN for the candy, I'm convinced.
