The youtube algorithm suck,it don't recommend this channel to many people.The youtube algorithm is not suck, it recommend ed this amazing video to us .So....Is the youtube algorithm suck?
The fact that you can distinguish the eye from other body parts in the "noob" pixek art on the thumbnail, shows that you don't need much colours to make good pixel art.
About color palettes: When you start, don't try to master everything the color wheel have to offer. Focus on *analogous* colors. That's what's shown in the video. The simple rule is that *once you choose a base color the shadow go toward "cold" colors, and highlight goes toward "warm" colors* . It's a simple enough rule to get started, then it's up to you to build your artistic sense.
This was the best pixel art tutorial ever not only because of the useful resources provided (I LOVE Miniboss's references), but also due to how much more inspired and motivated I am after watching this. And honestly? The getting into the right mindset part is something that I have never seen before and am probably never going to see again, but heck, was it just what I needed.
@@AlvinRoe upload more videos on pixel art, animation specially with mouse. It would be great if you provide tutorials on game maker studio. Because most of the beginners start with that programme and language is also easier than python or c#. Thank you.

What a superb vid this is! I am a complete novice in this field and this short twenty mins has highlighted so much, it's mind boggling, but in a fantastically exciting way. The different graphic styles alone are an education in themselves but the whole idea of just looking around you to see how nature does it and then how to translate that into pixel art - it just blew me away. Massively informative, intuitive and very well put together. Just superb. Many thanks for uploading - this will be a great point of reference.
I just finished up your 2D unity platformer tutorial and I don't know how you don't have more viewers. The content was great and the way you taught was perfect for me! I am just starting to jump into learning pixel art myself, so I am super excited to see this video! Keep up the great work and don't get discouraged! You have some great content.
Out of tones of videos on pixel art on youtube, this one was by far the most informative for me. It simply tells you where to start and how to progress so you won't get lost in this labyrinth. Was worth every second of watching, thank you so much, Alvin.
Been a hobbyist pixel artist/game developer for a while now, and while there are more tutorials out there that go into more depth on even the technical things you discussed in the video, I learned more in the last 20 minutes than I have in a long time. Your way of looking at things is so pure and simple but it cuts right through the bs into the important things. (And trust me, I have a BA in bs. I know what I'm talking about :P) Fantastic work! Hope to see more.
So far I have never stumbled upon information like "Rules for creating outlines" etc which is just vital information that I have been looking for. Thank you.
I must say, probably the best 20 minute beginner tutorial you can find on youtube for pixel art. It gives you all the neceseray information to start and a good motivetional spech for beginners like me ! thank you very much :)
I was binge watching pixel art videos for a few days because I never did any art but decided to make a pixel art as a gift. This video taught me more than hours of others. Thanks.
This legit changed everything,I recommend watching from the beginning to the end because every second of this video was worth my while. Thanks for everything x)!
I am a visual storyteller and new to pixel art. For an upcoming conference I am nudged to create something for a shared community map, that will be experienced like a huge game board. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. It gave me a pretty good start. What I liked best, was the overall overview and the wisdom, that's "between the lines". All the best, Alvin. Stay save and healthy :-)
Buddy, this video was highly motivational and for me personally way beyond something titled as "Beginner Pixel Art Tutorial - A Complete Guide". Thanks from the heart bro.
I'm a 17 year old looking for a degree in Game art and I need to make a game for an interview. Glad that this video was the first one that I clicked on. Very helpful.
Man, i cannot describe what i felt when you started to say all those things by the end of the video. Even that i always try to think about it, listening to someone saying this really gave me a inspirational boost. Came for a simple "do this and that" tutorial and leaving with a real treasure in my mind.
Holy crap, dude... your color theory tips for shading and highlighting blew my fragile little mind! You just advanced me so far with such a simple tip. Thanks, this video is probably the best compilation of info for the basics that I've ever seen.
Why when I need to have a tutorial about a subject you always make a video about it :D Love your content please keep it up, you're an hidden gem of TH-cam :)
Jeez, I came here to learn the bare basics to start working with pixel art, ended up learning about life. I hope the motivation you just gave me sticks out for long enough for me to learn this new skill. Will make sure to come back here often to remember what it is that I'm doing. Sincerely, thank you for this.
This is exactly the video I was looking for - even though I didn't know it yet. Thank you for the highly educational and informative information in a stylized and fun way to present it. What's more, is that you direct us to others' highly valuable information, passing along the knowledge that you've gained in your journey. I can't thank you enough.
Great advice, and I love your prose about the importance and beauty of art. One thing I always tell people is they get caught up in the tutorial loop they rely on other people's creativity and what they solved they never do work on their own.
Wow, essentially there is no tutorial for art, it's the freedom of expression. The only thing you do is remind us what art really is. I feel like an artist now, thank you. It seems in the end, all I needed was a shift in perspective.
Dude you're awesome!!! I can't imagine the effort that went into making this video. Please please please don't lower the quality of your future videos because of the low view count. I will always recommend your channel people who wants to learn game development. Keep up the good work 💪
this was the first video result I got from my google search and you put into words so many concepts that I felt but couldn't explain. you really helped me, thank you
man... that last point really made me think about my future career or just life on general and all the games I played in my childhood thinking about the struggles the creators went through. mad perseverance and love. Thank you!
I once made pixel art for a game in high school and now I have something on my heart inspired by my children but I don't know where to get started again, so thank you.
such a great video, i love how you put all of this together, and yes - you have a motivational speech quality in here! really happy to discover your channel, instant subscriber!
This was out of all the pixel art videos I watched the last few days, the BEST one and one I really needed to watch with a lot of things I needed to hear and amazing advice. Thank you.
Not being able to get art assets has been the biggest stumbling block for me in indie game development. Your tutorial was the final push for me to start down the path of pixel art. You actually, literally, helped change my life for the better. Thanks for that. Subscribed.
To anyone who is wanting to become an indie game developer: *Good luck!* I'm thinking about making a game aswell, however I think it'd just be a side thing. I've been doing normal art for a few years but I think it'd be a lot easier to do pixel art instead of normal art. I'm also gonna have to learn how to code which is gonna suck, but hey, if I can at least try, you can probably do it! :)
If you go with Unreal Engine + Blueprints you won't need to code except you are going for some completely groundbreaking mechanics. Just drag and drop stuff. But there is the possibility to write your own physics and such in C++ but as I said, I don't really think it is necessary except for the own ego.
I recently found out that the most successful indie games are made by people with a lot of experience from working in large studios. Also, you might like Gdevelop, it's the easiest to use game engine I've tried, and it's free. You can only make 2D games. though.
@@andresgrimminck8674 same here brother. Full time programmer, with the artistic skills of a rotten orange. Ordered a cheap p.o.s drawing tablet from aliexpress last week and reading on art fundamentals and ruining a lot of scrap paper with cheap pens. Gotta invest in myself to get something back.
Amazing video! There were many games in there, but unfortunately I only recognized Stardew Valley and Hyper Light Drifter. Would you mind sharing the names of the others? Thanks so much!
I'm not sure every game that's in there but here's a few awesome pixel art games for inspiration: Undungeon Death Trash Wizard of Legend Children of Morta Moonlighter Hyper Light Drifter
This video is really good I am a medical doctor and just decided to step aside specialization to build a game with near 0 experience in gaming developing. It was a really hard decision, but we must at least try to archive what we love. And your video inspired me to keep this plan going. Thanks a lot, friend.
Thank you. I'm new at art, and I've been hearing a lot "well, artists don't make money out of being kind." as a way to tell me they won't help me, much less for free. So I honestly, deeply, thank you, for teaching me, and all of us who watch your videos. Sending lots of blessings to you.
As artists myself sharing and encouraging others is own reward 😊if make money once Improve enough that’s great but never loose yourself no matter how good you get 👍
I watched this video today, 07/27/2022, subtitled and translated into Portuguese, it took me 01:27 (one hour and twenty-seven minutes) to go back and stop to absorb the concept you wanted to convey in the video, I signed up immediately, that's all made me sad was to see that the channel stopped 1 year ago. great teachings this video contains. I'm going to learn a lot and I hope you come back with work because yes you are a master. watching in Brazil, Rio de Janeiro
20 year game dev here. Those are mighty inspiring words there toward the end, even for someone who has seen a lot of stuff in the industry like me. I really hope you keep making videos. Thank you!
Came back to the video after applying everything you talked about. It’s the perfect video for someone starting out in my opinion. Helped me go from zero to level 3 goblin - not quite the protagonist yet but I’m levelling up. But in all seriousness, I have been using assets from unity store for a long time as I never thought I had any artistic ability but this video helped me a lot. I grinded and I’m making art that is somewhat game worthy so thanks a lot. Hope you have a nice day!
i want to drop from medical university and start making games with pixel art , this tutorial for where to begin is really all what you will need to get started and to master the art, many thank to you alvin
You gave me the keys I needed in order to change my life and others. I am truly grateful for you as a human being. I wish nothing but love and fulfillment for you on this journey we call life.
Came here for a tutorial but now I feel more motivated than ever to pursue my dreams of creating art and stories. That was an awesome tutorial and the ending was so nice.
Not only i got a proper entry tutorial, but as well as inspiring words, man i'm burning with passion in making games right now. Also i just got fired from the IT industry and decided to pursue game development, the very reason i became a programmer. Thanks for the tips and also man i'll share this with my friends Thank you so much!!
Thanks for this video. I am just starting out and I don’t even know if this is something I will enjoy yet but I have a simple passion and I don’t wanna let it burn out
Amazing video, I've doing pixel art for more than 2 years and never heard of the last ingredient "the inexplicable" It seems a new adventure has started for me :)
I will admit to having self-doubt, 'can i do this?', 'am i wasting time?' but watching all the way to the end, it made sense for me, and i felt more confident, that yes i can, and the resources are all there, regardless of my level, so long as i keep trying and finding that fun, either now or along the way. So thank you very much Alvin for alleviating my doubts and showing me the resources that can help me, great tips and great video! =)

Helped me go from zero to level 3 goblin - not quite the protagonist yet but I’m levelling up. But in all seriousness, I have been using assets from unity store for a long time as I never thought I had any artistic ability but this video helped me a lot. I grinded and I’m making art that is somewhat game worthy so thanks a lot. Hope you have a nice day!
i want to drop from medical university and start making games with pixel art , this tutorial for where to begin is really all what you will need to get started and to master the art, many thank to you alvin
thank you for introducing me to miniboss. out of all of the tutorials i’ve watched this one has been one of the best. thank you.
You gave me the keys I needed in order to change my life and others. I am truly grateful for you as a human being. I wish nothing but love and fulfillment for you on this journey we call life.
Wow I didnt think I would stay for the whole thing but I was blown away by this video. Subbed keep up the good work!
Came here for a tutorial but now I feel more motivated than ever to pursue my dreams of creating art and stories. That was an awesome tutorial and the ending was so nice.
Came for a pixel art tutorial, left with a new perspective on indie dev work and a plethora of resources and ideas.
Not only i got a proper entry tutorial, but as well as inspiring words, man i'm burning with passion in making games right now.
Also i just got fired from the IT industry and decided to pursue game development, the very reason i became a programmer. Thanks for the tips and also man i'll share this with my friends Thank you so much!!
Its actually wild that I went into this for an art tutorial, and came out with life lessons
Thanks for this video. I am just starting out and I don’t even know if this is something I will enjoy yet but I have a simple passion and I don’t wanna let it burn out
Amazing video, I've doing pixel art for more than 2 years and never heard of the last ingredient "the inexplicable"
It seems a new adventure has started for me :)
Man, I religiously watch your videos. You always nail your videos. Please never stop (: ❤️
Thanks friend! I'm glad to see someone watches more than one video hahaha!
This helped me with a lot of questions! All great suggestions, I especially like the mini boss site! Thanks for making great content.
I will admit to having self-doubt, 'can i do this?', 'am i wasting time?' but watching all the way to the end, it made sense for me, and i felt more confident, that yes i can, and the resources are all there, regardless of my level, so long as i keep trying and finding that fun, either now or along the way. So thank you very much Alvin for alleviating my doubts and showing me the resources that can help me, great tips and great video! =)
You can almost anything anyone else can don’t give up 😊when it comes to art you got just work at it over time if keep going you will grow and improve
I've never heard anything more inspirational about art ever and heard such wise yet essential wisdom, thx Alvin that's a sub from me 🙂.
Bro. Great video. I took a lot away from this including some things I didn't even know I needed to hear. Keep up the good work!
Thank you because of you now I’m getting good in my pixel art skill
Great video, I loved all the info, the pace of the video and that ending was the cherry. Got my sub.
I loved the video. The best pixel art / philosophy video I have watched. Now I want both do pixel art for life and be real with my parents.
Watching this has rekindled an interest in what I did for a living for a short while. Definitely going to start drawing!
This is one of the best tutorials I’ve seen, love the balance you achieve between fun/informative. Loved it!
