Hello, and welcome. Hope you find you enjoy pixelling . Those red eyes make pacman look possessed by the devil, as does the pointy nose, which isn't particularly a bad thing...hehe. It looks like you've mostly used line and circle tools, the circle tool can make very choppy circles, as is the case here.

Check this out for advice on doing smooth curves, since it no doubt explains it better than I could:

Hell check out the whole site, lol:

You've got a big block of flat yellow colour, which makes poor pacman look very flat. Yes I know pacman is hella flat looking in the original pacman, but thats beside the point...Add in a highlight tone ie a brighter yellow, and another shadow tone, a darker grey, would help to give more volume to pacman.

Looks good for a first try, better than my first one anyway, aside
everythinhg EyeCraft said, i think you should work the nose and give
some expression to the eyes and the mouth (unless you realy want
him to look possesed by the devil )

Keep workin like and im sure youll get somewhere!
