Pixel Art School – 今から始めるドット絵入門 – Free Download

For those of you who are just starting to draw pixel art, I’ve put together a basic knowledge of pixel art. If you’re just starting out, I’m sure you’ll be able to improve faster after reading this course! I think it explains the material expression in pixel art in an easy to understand way! (This is my personal opinion, but…)

• Hard-to-notice operations: Use the ESC key or the select button on the controller to switch between windowed and full screen. Press F1 to access the system settings of Pixel Game Maker MV. If your controller behaves strangely, you can set it here.
• CAUTION1: This game is designed for people who want to start drawing pixel art. Therefore, it basically explains the expressions and techniques of pixel art. It does not explain the three-dimensional effects and expressions of illustration. If you are in need of such information, I recommend you read other books. In addition, for elements that vary depending on the work and the artist, such as color and style, you should seek and find the information yourself.
• CAUTION2: There are some parts of this game that are blurred out without detailed explanation. This is because we want you to find the answers through trial and error. It is not in anyone’s interest to give instructions for these parts. I want to work in dot art! I believe that the ability to derive an answer through trial and error is necessary for such people. I hope that you can understand my intention.
