Any good pixel art style games released lately, /v/?
>>
I liked Flinthook.
>>
Have there ever been any good pixel art style game in the last 10 years or so? I am seriously asking because i want to play a game like this
>>
>>376497136
people seem to like how owlboy and hyper light drifter look
>>
>>376497056
Strafe
>>
nope
>>
>>376497056
The scott pilgrim streets of rage thing was awesome
>>
>>376497136

Sworcery.
>>
>>376497136
Cave Story (if you somehow haven't already played it)
Hyper Light Drifter
Shovel Knight
Deadbolt (does this apply?)
>>
Shovel Knight is probably the best indie pixel game out there.
>>
>1 pixel thick arms and 4x4 square face
When the fuck will these jackasses move on?
>>
>>376497405
>>376497429
Anon, Cave Story came out over 12 years ago.
>>
>>376497434
>making overcomplicated pixel art that looks like regular art but jaggy
boooring
>putting as much detail as possible on the smallest amount of pixels
give me that shit
>>
>>376497056
arms don't bend like that
especially when they're not even connected by flesh

>released lately

No

The last good pixel art games were Hammerfight and Cortex Command and Space Station 13
>>
>>376499616
Space Station 13 has ugly as fuck art
>>
>>376499686
He said 'good pixel art games', not 'games with good pixel art.'

Anyway there are literally hundreds of spriters who've contributed to SS13, some of it is fantastic.
>>
Rain World is pretty, but hard.
>>
>>376499616
Good taste, Hammerfight is such a great hidden gem.
>>
>>376497056
Are those 9s or 5s?
>>
>>376499956
they're the letter S you mong
>>
>>376497056
this look fucking terrible
>>
>>376497136
owlboy is on prime lucasarts level of awesomeness.
>>
>>376497405
Why would Deadbolt not apply? Hopoo is rad man.

When I first saw this image I thought it the text implied how long it took him to create sprites of that "quality". I got a little mad for a second there.
>>
>>376499746
SS13 has a terrible perspective to its graphics that makes everything look like it's lying flat out on the floor and it looks (rightfully, but not delightfully) amateurish
>>
>>376497405
cave story is bad, don't fall for the /v/ memes.
>>
>>376500449
where is the evidence
>>
>>376497056
>Lanky single-pixel stick arms/stick legs with bloated pixel resolutions and tons of garbage pixels for the sake of "lol look how detailed it is"
Now try animating that shit and see how "good" it looks. This trend of pixel art really needs to stop.

I get what that image is saying, but Hollow Knight is actually good.
>>

>I get what that image is saying
What is it saying?
Here's the full post for context: http://platformerpower.com/post/158525050089/32-metroidvanias-2017-edition
>>
>>376502945
It's trying to say that the Indie scene is completely saturating the genre to the point where almost none of the individual games have an impact in the sea of like games.
>>
>>376500435
Jesus christ Sundered LOOKS good.
>>
>>376497056
Crawl
Death road to Canada
>>
>>376500435
Does anyone know the names of the games in this? Most of them don't look that interesting but some of them at least look kinda cool like the one on the second to last row all the way to the right and the one on the bottom row one from the left.
>>
>>376503878
for fuck's sake, man.

I don't even know why I posted that and then reverse image searched it. I especially don't know why I didn't read the rest of the thread before posting.
>>
>>376504204
that and that and also the website's name is right there in the image...
>>
>>376503103
I really don't mind Metroidvania being a go-to for indie games. It's pretty achievable and as long as it's well-paced there's no problem.

It's not fucking procgen, that's for one.
>>
>>376497056
>Not being able to shave on a regular basis
I sincerely hate the idea of this.

>>376504518
I don't reverse image search shit to or from tumblr often so I didn't even know that.

>>376497136
Lethal League
>>
>>376500853
>>376502285
and they religiously look up to that game,
up to the point that they will call you names for disliking their shit.

an okay 6/10 game with horrible fanbase on /v/.
avoid it like a plague.

The backgrounds are amazing, but man I don't like how that character animation looks.

Maybe it's just the thin, spindly legs that put me off.

No. They're usually just mediocre copies of good retro games.
>>
>>376500449
spotted the noob
>>
>>376505434
the enemies and stuff are pretty well animated

its not actual bitmap animations, its pixelated lines being drawn on a ragdoll skeleton, makes all the movements look realistic
>>
>>376505917
Yeah I guess it's that constant swaying that turns me off, compared to the stretch and snap I prefer.

Oh well, I'll probably play it anyway.
>>
>>376502241
This game makes me want to kill myself. It's so oppressive and tyrannical. Reminds me of being like 10 trying to play Heart of Darkness.
>>
>>376505615
Looks better than gta 5
>>
>>376497136
minecraft legiymately has one of the better pixel art styles of the decade, especially with the color update coming out and mod options

No shadows and colors are pretty bad

Minecraft has a certain charm to it, but I don't know that I'd call it a beautiful looking game

until you add mods
>>
>>376509298
hmm I dunno that sounds like a lot of effort for a shitpost
>>
>>376508841
I agree, but why are all these animation examples from the game only ever blown up to be way larger than their native res?

how is that? it just came outta nowhere, usually I have pretty good awareness of "good" games that are coming out but I saw people talking about it and have never even heard of it. Graphically it reminds me A LOT of owlboy.

Hows the length and replayability?
