Looks good! It could use a second color though

I could stare at it for hours.. 

Very nice! It reminds me a little of Metal Slug, the animation would be a challenge though as MS uses a lot of sub-pixel animation. I found a tutorial for it :) 2dwillneverdie.com/tutorial/give-your-sprites-depth-with-sub-pixel-animation/

This is fantastic! Really gets your imagination going and sets up a whole mega series of follow-up pixel art! I love it 

I love this, it reminds me of a virtual pet game :) very nice! Would you ever consider animating these? 

Me and my little brother had these! I love them so much, their little pixel eye animations x) great job! 

Why not include the rest of the scene? Your tumblr has a lot of great pixels by the way :) theyre so relaxing

how many frames did you make for this?

is this from abyssrium? what a cute game x) I love how simplistic the pixel art is great job x)

I could've sworn this was a brand new item from gaiaonline! great job! 

The timelapse was a great little bonus  nice

very nice! it looks just like a painting! wonderful job X) 

So so true, replaying mfomt is great and all but i would be so happy to see something new in this snes style

If you can make a mobile game of this, even a small one of just a container garden i would buy it immediately im sure many other people would too

I would buy this hands down if you made a mobile app, even if its just a little container garden in this style, please please please 😢 theres just no harvest moon games like this anymore, even remotely 😭

Really nice work :) would love to see this in animation, great job!

I'm lovin' it :)

dang, i wouldnt know how to pixelate something that complicated :o props to you man, honestly it looks great, and on such a small canvas, good job :)

I love it! everything is so polished :) Id feel really refreshed playing this game :3 one thing i guess would be the sides of the garden soil cuts off, there would be some grass overlaping the ground like on the bottom of the garden, great job with this!

Where is your light source coming fom? Its very hard to tell, especially with all the dithering

oh interesting! youll have to link the film once it's completed :D

good call with the door animation, its a nice fix, moving objects are always more eye catching than any detailed piece, nice one! :)

geez man thats insane. have you made any games?

this isnt finished is it? from the portrait i can tell you're capable of incorperating much more detail and value. the phoenix wright backgrounds (if thats what you're going for) always incorperate perspective in some way even if the background is a front facing wall.

pulling back the frame or moving your vantage point to the side and not in the middle would show the corners of the room and wll give your background more depth

balancing the detail in the piece would also greatly improve the image, even when theres a character talkting to you in the game the player will only be able to focus on the painting in the back. shrinking the size and adding more eyecating highlights and contrasting shadows and texture to the rest of the room will make it feel more like an actual space.

try photographing any room in your house and converting it to greyscale. then block in the values with a thick pencil or marker. it will get you used to seeing value and general shape before conture. then take the black and white photo and bring it to graphics gale or photoshop or gimp or what have you, downsize it to a size appropriate for pixeling and trace it. there's nothing wrong with tracing once in a while. This helps me to remember to draw what's actually there, not what i think i see. remember grass isn't always just green and the sky is not always blue.

i hope this was helpful, id love to work on a game eventually and this sounds like its going to be really fun :) keep it up! and good luck :)

id play the shit out of this game, i love the color palete, really great job :D
