I'm honestly not sure what's harder out of the last 2. It seriously feels like the jumps in wings of vi need twice as much pixel precision as IWBTG

I mean, when it's done well, sure, but most of the time it's garbage, just like pixel graphics.

I know this is gonna sound stupid, but most 8 bit music today just sounds like the people who made it are trying too hard to make something else, while before, when 8 bit music was a limitation, people did their best with what they had. Now, it's like "if we want the music to be 8 bit we need to make it sound really high pitched and super happy with no real rhythm!"

The goddamn soundtrack to the original ninja gaiden games is amazing.

I generally like pixel art. I especially love pixel art if it's great like >>316811239 or at least attempts to emulate the graphic style and limitations of older consoles.

What triggers me is the type of sketchy featureless, particle-heavy giant blob of color pixel art like pic related. It looks like nothing at all, it doesn't even remotely resemble NES or SNES graphics and makes me inordinately angry for some reason. Games with graphics like this usually have decent animations which means the artists could have created something that actually looks good and plausible but instead they go for HUGE PIXELZ because "muh style" and "the bigger the pixels the retro-er it is".

Tank controls.

>>316816248
I mean if the game's designed around it sure

If it's just tank controls because "we wanted to be like resident evil" then fuck right off.
>>
I like 3D girls that aren't thick or muscular, but have large hips for that pleasant hourglass shape. I also like flat chests, and small but shapely asses.

Also I actually really like Final Fantasy Type-0. The only problem is that fucking FURY status. That mixed with those fucking byakko officers and their 300 damage per shot pistols is fucking infuriating. Game would've been enjoyable in every way if those faggots didn't exist. Seven best girl, because of spats. Cater second best girl because she's cute, and brown, and if you ask me she's almost tied with Queen for strongest character. Queen has her beat when kill-sights aren't involved though, and King kind of has her beat with kill sights involved, but not really. He's easier to use though. Also he's fucking weird isn't he? His moveset is almost entirely built for close range but he uses guns, what's the point? If he wasn't so fucking strong he'd be completely unfun.

Tank controls can be a good thing, has to be a somewhat slow game though. I wanted to mention a tank controls game that I enjoyed recently but I can't even remember it.

the funny thing is that ShovelKnight was made entirely in Famitracker using expansion chips that NES cartridges (like Castlevania 3 or whatever) had.

The only way it doesn't follow limits is that the whole soundtrack would fill an NES cart by itself.

Other than that nitpick, I agree with you.

My pet peeve with Chiptune is "let's use that twinkly arpp-y sound on everything!" when...I don't know, maybe it's because my only 8 bit console was a Gameboy (had a genesis rather than an NES) that I've never heard actual games use that twinkly arpeggio sound anywhere near as often as chiptune music uses it.

As a "le 8-bit pixelart" artist myself I don't know which I hate more.

>>316815096 boils the anatomy down to pixel-width limbs and it doesn't feel like a size restriction because of the sprite's height, nor is there a colour restriction. The colour choice is muddy and the animation for these kinds of graphics is just moving the body up and down, not the legs.

>>316815679 has the same problem with muddy colour choice, where the tones and shading tones aren't distinct from each other so they blur together. But there's also a ring of tone inside the outline of the objects, giving them an ugly pillow-shaded look. Objects that should be in the foreground or standing in front of background elements (flowers) have colours that almost make them blend in instead.

>>316817712 I don't "hate" per se but it peeves me with the mixed-resolution graphics (compare the battle commands to the player's name/stats, the flies in the field box against the player's heart and the enemy sprite). There's a huge level of abstraction in the enemy sprite itself but that allows for the player to interpret the details on their own.

>>316828985
Still, there's an IWBTG type free cheap looking game, and then there's stuff like wings of vi, being sold for $15 and obviously having more money and people behind it.

It didn't have to be all about extremely precise jumps.

Even if it was, it was still a bug ridden mess. Years after its release, me, and many others STILL can't play it in fullscreen, or windowed mode, without a host of issues that make the game unplayable.
