Hey Thomas, check out this copy cat channel with udemy courses:

If I buy this course I can later watch the whole lessons ?
Me, dragging a bleeding corpse across the hospital floor: “well, you see, it’s simple color theory”
LMAOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOO
Theres an actual argument about this on tumblr
theres a red paint on the hospital floor and it looks like a bloody corpse has been dragged and ppl are arguing red means love and bravery blah blah
@@salvatore2119 that’s what I was referencing, I’m really happy that people knew what I was talking about and didn’t think I was weird lol
"it has a soothing effect"
0:00 Intro

you absolute legend
you da GoAT
7:04 Your Mom
Thanks
Thanks man
05:35 "Terrible sound"? That's a masterpiece!!
I was able to 2X my game rev! I went from $0 to $00!
p.s. I'm just kidding Thomas, your content is actually really helpful to a lot of aspiring devs. The color theory stuff was superb. :)
Best of luck to you my friend
Hey, another 0 is another zero. The glass can be half-full and or half-empty, and if working with a game dev has taught me anything it's that you just have to be stubborn enough to keep chasing the results you need to achieve. Just perseverance. That's all you need. Or so www.youtube.com/@SamuelAsherRivello says.
I was able to 10x it from $0 to $0000000000, I'm rich now jk
That's not how the math would work but I get the point@@phen-themoogle7651
I love that you brought up Thomas was alone for how powerful abstract art can be. And Quake with it's epic soundtrack. I was used to great music coming from the Amiga, but Quake blew me away when I first tried it.
“You will learn how to double your game’s revenue” HAHA I QUADRUPLED IT, I am at 0
Great video with great editing as always Thomas, thanks for another great one.
Freaking LOVE you Mr. Brush. These videos are so helpful and because of artists/developers like you, newbs like me can progress lightyears faster than the guys just out there wingin' it. Bookmarked that course, and I'm going to pick that up as soon as I finish a few other courses I'm in the middle of. HOLD ME TO IT!
the answer to the question about why sounds work together is to do with how the waves overlap - for example a note one octave above another note is just double the frequency so the turning points match up a lot
Wow that was awesome! For a topic that's already been covered in depth by many in the past this was a great nuanced summary. Thanks a lot :D
As someone currently going to uni for graphic design, it's incredible how many of the principles we learn and continue to learn apply to game design. Theorems and thought experiments which quite a few students considered worthless because "when or how would we even use this?" when in reality, with a bit of know-how, it could end up being the deciding factor.
Fantastic video!
This was a fantastic video! I know you are a indie dev that has a lot of first hand knowledge of based on your experiences, but I didn't know you had so much knowledge of theory that could so easily apply to other games. If I ever decided that indie dev was for me I would definitely take your course.
These basics are so important! Even experienced creators sometimes forget... Thank you for the reminder :)
This is amazing, I'm a back-end developer who's been interested in game development and I've been looking around on TH-cam for tips on how to make good-looking simple games and I just found the perfect channel
Thanks Thomas for the great tips. Your videos are always helpful and I really appreciate it.
This is an amazing video. Exactly the inspiration I needed right now!
This literally came at the perfect time for me. I was about to go upstairs and decide on some colors for my game
This was awesome. Love to see more of these tips/tricks. The fog blending everything into the color of the sky was news to me. I can't un-see it now.
interesting! i went to school for music production specifically for music theory to be able to write / arrange my tunes properly, its cool to see a "colour theory". This feels like something i shouldve learned in high school when i listen to you talking about it!
each video makes me feel i can make my game better and better just learning the basics since the last time i did video game stuff is 17 years ago and boy things have changed i found my old games ideas storyline maps for FPS games and 2D games i rebooted my ideas and Life thanks to people like you who make these amazing games thank you! am 38 now and i have my second kid on the way now excited to see what i will make
Thanks Thomas this is very helpful in pointing art direction in my current game and future projects!
Thanks for adding! I really enjoyed and hope I can use some method in my game I am working on.
This was a nice video. Short but so informative.
There are some great tips here that I can apply to the game I'm making right now! Thanks Thomas!
Really needed that. Thanks man.
Amazingggg!
Will definitely make good use of these tips. Thank you!
Thomas, your videos have been a really great help in my journey as a game dev. Thank you for sharing everything you know!
My fingers are crossed that I can use everything you have shown as to help my new metroidvania game stand out 😁🕹
Cheers, friend! 🍻
Hey, I checked out your game and it’s looking really good so far! Do you have a steam page I can wishlist?
@@defender5360 I sure do! You can search for “Age of Irata”! 😁
Cheers friend 🍻
@@VinciWare Wishlisted, and I also signed up for your email newsletter. I'm excited for the demo! 🙂
@@defender5360 you have no idea how much that helps! You are appreciated, friend 😁👋🍻
This is such great advice!! Thank you
Thanks for teaching about complementary colors, that's a cool concept
Ive been listening to William benckert's music for the past few weeks and it's really great. Glad you put it in the video!
Dude, this Video is stupidly overloaded with brilliant and usefull information. Thanks man!
Beautiful and useful video. Thanks Thomas!
So informative, thanks a lot!
This was awesome to learn about, thanks!
much love bro! Really helped me :)
Awesome! This gave me a lot to think about.
Thanks for the video Thomas. 😀👍🏻
This is why people who solo make banger games are so impressive. Because besides coding the thing, you also need to make banger sprites , banger sfx, banger scenes...
Love the videos brother! Can’t wait to see the next time you’re streaming again!
I usually associate my games color pallete with the emotion I want the player to feel. I don't think I've ever used color theory but it sounds good for getting a game done.
Thomas! Thank you for making great videos!!!
0:52 I’m gonna need to learn these colour wheel theories, thanks a lot!
This was extraordinarily helpful.
Thank you for this video Thomas.
Everything works at its best!!
You know what else is gorgeous? You are!
Thank you for this video 😀
I love your advice ❤🎉
I love this video so much thank you!
Great Job, keep it up!
I generally hate it when TH-cam recommends stuff I've already watched, but I'm glad I watched this one again
obsessed with soft design now and more obsessed with cool scales Nd stuff.
This is so informative!
This video is actually funny af 😂 Thomas is great at (among everything else) keeping us all motivated, so thanks Thomas!
Appreciate this video very much, Thank you Thomas Brush.
This is a GREAT video thomas! Also, cool tattoo!
You made this world so amazing
I'm not game dev but u give me a lot of boost
amazing video, tysm!
the section on depth, at 8:21 is also about the concepts of atmospheric perspective.
Hi. I suck at game art. I'm learning to code now, and working on my game's art keeps getting pushed back. Thanks for this timely video :)
What did you use to find the complementary colors?
This was excellent info!
So good thanks man
I like the "carnival" music for the "let's choose random color for this scene" section. Here in Brazil, when we (designers) see something so colorful and random, we say "isso aí está um carnaval" (that's a carnival) - "Salada de fruta" (fruit salad) is also a choice
Hi,
thanks for sharing your experience ❤🎉
I’m an artist but I like chenge with something unique I guess I found it but tell me is this the one I have go first video game art lesson?
Great video as always
I really love these
Great video!
Thanks ❤
wooooo new video finally
Good video! Subscribed!
Great Vid!
He returns
Damn Thomas, you are looking slick these days. Love the new style
this is gold
That fog trick is underrated.
Did he just call my game low budget? Joke's on him, i have zero budget lol!
You did an excellent marketing. You jump in right into the industry.... game maker
Have to admit, your videos are world - class, ton of neat info, etc . . $
Hey Thomas, would you mind sharing the name of the piano song you used at the start of the video?
Love your videos btw
thank you
DAMMIT MAN IM SO MOTIVATED
so many people are trying to teach me color theory without explaining the logic behind it. they just say "oh this formation of the color wheel is good, and this one is good" and then they just do something else in their examples. you didn't pick green and red as complementary colors and made them slightly more warm. you just picked orange and yollow-ish green, which are not complementary.
other example i saw in a video: somebody showed his work to showcase how the triad scheme synergizes, but what made the artwork truly beautiful, was the addition of a color that doesn't fit in any of the mentioned schemes.
in the end, people just invent more and more schemes to fit their explanations and that's what makes it so redundant. katana zero is a beautiful game too, to me at least, without fitting any of the mentioned schemes and that's the point. it's subjective with some biases on experience like green + orange, that happens to be the colors of harmonic settings in the woods in a frame of a clearing. some people like monochromatic pink, some hate it but like green, while others hate the green. if you like peaceful clearing scenes, you like the green+orange scheme, if you like futuristic cyber stuff, you like the chaotic katana zero scheme. i like both. i didn't like the katana zero color scheme at first, but i learned to love it. did my perception alter? no, just my subjective taste. it's all just positive and negative associations, which is subjective and thus can't be the logical outcome of appearance itself. it's the same with anything else that is considered beautiful. color schemes are at best a typology of statistically successful combinations, don't come with pseudo logic
sorry to dump it here, but i am trying to understand stuff and have limited time to do so. but understanding doesn't mean to uncritically assimilate so called "knowledge" of a subject you "learned" somewhere else and apply it. understanding means to grasp the logic behind the subject and being able to infer with it.
here some inspiring words from gautama siddhartha (buddha):
"don't believe something, because others believe it"
"don't believe something, because all believe it"
"don't believe something, because it is written"
"don't believe something, because it is considered holy"
"don't believe something, because wise people say it"
"believe only, what you identified as true"
this ^ . This guy always makes me feel like he's living in a bubble and selling every thought he had along the way of his moderately successful career. He invented some cheap tricks that helped him make acceptable quality with little effort, using barely surface level knowledge. I know he works hard and it's always impressive to make it work one way or another in this industry. It's still frustrating to see this little self-awareness and people praising him.
"Wait, it's all just basic shapes?"
"Always has been"
at 7:07 he makes a really insane insight on game development
I think a bonus 6th step for making a game look BOOTIFUL has to be motion. I'm surprised this isn't mentioned actually. Little bits of motion are key to making a game feel alive. Maybe it was assumed since it's a video game and things will be moving anyways, but small details like grass blowing, trees swaying, water flowing, maybe bugs flying by or a crystal sparkling can give a sense of wonder.
Hard part is having elements used through multiple levels like coins and enemies not destroy the whole palette when your game have multiple different moods
Then why not slightly change the colors of the coins and enemies?
For example yellow coins looking more orange in a red area?
@@JustFun-lq9ef True that! It's hard when you have many elements to differenciate(enemies), but I started playing around with "color balance" shaders, really helps to keep an ambiance.
Hey man, I sent you a podcast invite via mail. Would be great to hear back from you :-)
Colors was what drew people to play games the original Metroid, Godzilla on the NES. Also, the music. But, music I guess is a topic for another video.
What is the website used to find complementary colors?
Was it just me who loved the chaotic feel of the 7:21 scene? For me looks more fun and unique than the 7:25 generic scene
golden eye with bad sound still looks fun XDXD
5:59 out of context is actually meme-worthy 💀💀💀💀💀💀
This is the ONLY REALLY INTERESTING AND REAL tutorial on the intire youtube !! GGs for the video and the montage. I liked
Incredible value here, I tangentially heard about all of these but this is more detailed and more direct, thanks
The best advice i was given about art was “you have eyes, use them”
can I ask you , do you advice learning blender or 3dx max ? or both are good and it is just personal preference ?
Both preference and depending what your goal is. Both are great 3d modelling software, also Maya. If your goal is to get work in a big company, your best chances are with 3ds Max or Maya.
My preference is Blender though. It's free, lots of tutorials and since it's open source, it's a constant upgrade. Since their big overhaul in UI, has become easy to use. And you can do a lot in Blender, like brushing and so. So no need for extra software like Z-brush.
I'm making my game with Blender. A good free engine is Godot. I started of with Godot, but switching to Unreal Engine since their new licences policies, which make it really accessable to Indies and starters.
@@JustAnotherGamer1005 wow that is great to know , I think I will start with blender and get comfortable with unreal , thank you so much
I actually liked those random colors in that still
Does someone know the name of the game showed at 0:04 ? Looks awesome but I can't find it ! Thanks for the help 🙂
Well, found it throught google image reverse it is called "sable"
you are awesome Thomas
