Pandapants2000's Guide to Making Gimkit Pixel Art

So there are a lot of guides that many people have made about certain types of pixel art, but what I have noticed is that, like I said, they all go to a certain genre. What I thought is that we can make a guide about all kinds of pixel art.

Profound words about art

This guide is the show people that its not really that hard to do. You can be the worst at art, but in the begginging everyone is. Some people start out by taking Ideas from other people, and thats an amazing way to start.

Making pixel art isn’t really hard. All you need is an image of the thing you want to make that is pixelated like this one
download
then make a split screen on your computer or laptop, or if you have two computers then you can still do this.
Then go to a gimkit map thats not the platforming one.
With the picture on one side and the gimkit on the other, you can start with a simple outline. (I used metallic black)


Gimkit doesn’t have all the colors of the rainbow or even orange, but Its always fun to use your own colors and Ideas.
At the end of this there are other guides to pixel art and also other pixel art gimkit makings.

welcome back @Gimpenetrable

Thank you! :grin:

I can’t believe I’m still a regular after being inactive for three whole months… :expressionless:

Um, yeah, this is a great guide! I forgot to like it!

This is a little short…
maybe add a part telling you what terrains substitute for different colors?

the idea is to be creative and see what other terrains you can use to substitute for the colors you don’t have

creativity = key

Maybe you should add that? Or you already have?

Yeah, adding that’s a good idea.

I’m dropping back into retirement now - sorry - but at least 1 good thing’s happening: the 2028 Olympics are in Cali. Yay! :palm_tree:
