Project B - Pixel Sprites

And our RPG still lives! Let's call the RPG that we're brainstorming for Project B and we've decided that I'm in charge of the designs. I'm not that good in digital arts to be honest but, hey, I enjoy a good challenge. 

RPG Makers make use of pixelated sprites like the one shown below:

A female sprite template

As you can see, it is aligned 3 x 4 which totals to 12 icons per sprite, 12 possible animation frames and that's just the minimum. Icons are usually 24 x 24 pixels but could be 32 x 32 and many more, it all depends on one's personal preference and the item you're going to make (e.g. tools, tiles, etc.).


RPG Maker VX Ace does have a sprite generator and it does have a lot of options as seen below:

But it can only go as far as the limitations of the package though you can always edit the generated sprite here and there. As far as pixels are concerned, Graphics Gale is known for creating or editing sprites.
