Wait, are saying to have a better contrast of purples for Shoggoth? I'm kind of turned around.

No, I meant Piratejoes samurai army.

You should! It's amazing fun just drawing stuff. Playing games with what you've made is amazing, though I haven't played anything with my Cthulhu Cult yet.

For reference, I am a billion percent sure that imgur basically compresses what ever you upload, essentially ensuring quality loss--which is a pretty big no no for this kind of sprite work. Not really sure what to do.

Can anyone help on this? I've tried with both .jpg and .png files and while on my end the sprite is a clean as can be, it's positively hideous over the internet!

From what I know, imgur is't corrupting images. At least it didn't done that with my images. For example:

nice sprite sheet. Can you zoom in on it though???

EDIT: Anyways,



Here's a test for character design.

If we zoom in here...



WTF!!!  Absolutely no image quality, what is this???

The army idea is basically a horde of robots, they're dumb as fuck, but they literally just overwhelm enemy forces by weight of numbers. Pondering interesting mechanics. The model pictured is the base model and will make up the bulk of these nefarious if simple-minded automatons.

Absolutely no problem to zoom in your image or mine:

I'm using stetch tool in graphic editor. I guess that built-in forum tool makes image blurred.

Good ol' MS paint, specifically that one which was included in Windows XP. You could google for PaintXP to check it out. However, it lacks tools for cool effects like paint.NET haves.

Well I'm on Mac sadly, but no matter. Pinta works pretty well, cept for that default color selection... but it'll work.

Damn it Stefman. If this is what you call shity, than how do good sprites look?
