Following resent M-Learning students survey results we set up a short new project for the first year Game Art Student – “Pixel Art for Mobile Game”.
Students have to follow lecturer presentation and online tutorial and create simple Pixel Art Illustration suitable to be used as a graphic for a mobile game.
Pixel art is distinguished from other forms of digital art by an insistence upon manual, pixel-level editing of an image. In this form, it is commonly said that "each pixel was placed carefully" to achieve a desired result which requires quite a lot of time and effort.
The results and students feedback excided our expectations. The students enjoyed the process and came up with some excellent illustrations:
