Which are some modern games with good pixel art, /v/?
Planet Centauri is one of my favorites, still, it's heavily WIP.
Shovel Knight
>>320240810
What about Plague Of Shadows, does the quality holds up?
Probably not the most impressive, but it's surprisingly nice for a free game
>>320241363
Posting the game name's on the filename would help a lot.
>>320240810
hahaha christ you're a fucking pleb
>>320241161
not him but yeah, Plague is either as good or better than Shovel imo
>>320241452
Duelyst
>>320241363
>>320241530
the art for that game is shit
>>320241739
what you mean like the non sprite art? Yeah it's pretty fuckin awful
Shantae
"Modern" is a loose term, so I'll say Cave Story.

It's the poor man's filter
>>320244582
>Cave Story
when will /v/ stop blindly fellating this game and its dev
it did nothing special in any department
>>320246287
It's a good game.
Why the hell are we taking steps back with graphics?
The way I see it, people that make pixel games or pixel art or whatever you call it are too lazy to make a proper game with proper graphics.

>>320244324
Gud game.
>>320246287
It's a good game spergy, it's fun, it's nothing amazing or God Tier, but as far as fun games go, it's one of them.
>>320246564
Pixel art
Pre-rendered backgrounds
Really any sort of game which focuses more on style than fidelity tends to not become as dated as a game that's just graffix
>>320246406
>>320246735
it's a good game but again, it did nothing special, so why is it always the go-to answer that conforms to the /v/ norm for "best platformer/indie game/music/pixel art/feels/story/etc." threads?
>>320246564
A lot of people enjoy sprites, anon. Also, platformers work infinitely better with sprites than models.
>>320247041
Maybe it's because there aren't a lot of games coming out that scratch that "good" mark.
>>320246564
kill urself my man
Gotta love that PC 98 look.
>>320247041
Because it did all of those in a good way.
>multiple endings
>good gameplay
>nice art
>nice music
>nice level design
>fun characters
Not to mention made by one person

feels good

That's definitely not ripped or rotoscoped. The cape physics are too shitty. The armor stretches. The wings(?) of the spear's tip aren't present in the spin. The idle animation reuses parts. He definitely used a reference but I think that's it. Maybe just the shaft of the spear was rotoscoped. Unsure.

It's better than you think. If you are patient (I know you aren't) read this: http://www.actionbutton.net/?p=416

Pixel art isn't inherently bad. Many (indie) developers use it as it inspires nostalgia and appears to be easy/cheap to make. It seems very approachable, but just like traditional 2D animation, it's damn hard to do well. It's just a stylistic choice.
>>320246918
Fuck that mission, but what a great game.
>>320247041
Maybe because it is among the best of those?
>>320246564
stylistic choice you filthy fucking faggonigger.
>>320246406
Not that dude, but being a good game and having good pixel art are not exactly the same thing.
>>320246564
>Why the hell are we taking steps back with graphics?
We're moving forward in 3D graphics, 2D graphics are just incredibly inefficient to do at a high quality in the modern game marketplace so no one is putting any effort in.
If you're a AAA then people will expect your game to be relatively big content wise or have some really realistic graphics. With pixel art you're limited to have a game with lots of content to meet expectations. problem is high quality pixel art is expensive because you're basically getting someone to do every frame of animation for everything from enemies to chandeliers and water. It simply isn't worth their effort when 3D is much more efficient as far as content creation goes.
For indies they rely on pixel art because they aren't skilled enough to make decent looking 3D models for all the things they'd need. Imagine Undertale's starting area in Toriel's house, the content creation there is so much easier than making a 3D environment of that house. Bad pixel art is also generally more acceptable than bad 3D modeling, it's still bad but it's further from that uncanny valley.

Old pixel art is based though

fify. They're almost synonymous but not quite.
