well frist off most of your peaple are umm... star shaped...

as you can see here the walk about graphics should have there arms by there sides as well as feet. there foot should be cut by half on on leg then switch to the other to create a walking effect. also eyes should be more than 1 pixle. 2 usually does the job but 4 can also get the job done.


Well, first off, I think you could benefit from lessons in spelling and punctuation. Second, there have been OHR games that succeeded despite their poor graphics. Flashy graphics aren't what make a game good; they're just what make a game "attractive".

In response to Rinku, I don't find the graphics particularly 'jarring' or displeasing at all; in my eyes, they're simply not very pretty. I don't know what anti-aliasing means.

In my head (a crazy place), the issue is one of purpose. I did not make this game to impress anyone (besides my little brother, who was about seven when I started). I made it because it was fun to make, and I wanted it to be fun to play. Graphics don't really interest me, so learning about pixel art would not have been fun in terms of making, and the graphics as they stand do not lessen my enjoyment while playing. But that's just me, and I can perfectly understand if anyone decides to not play my game because the graphics bother them.

Regardless, I do think a new game is in order wherein the_dude and I create a world where the one-pixel-eyed pajama-men are at war with the two-pixel-eyed pajama-men over the world's first pair of shoes.
