Cake terrain! (Art)
This post will talk a little bit about the approach to the art side of things and some initial ideas for characters and terrain. Again, all of this is tentative and may be modified in the near future.
The art is being made using Aseprite. It is the software I learned to make pixel art in and that made me feel comfortable. I've tried other software, and to be fair, pixel art can be made in any software where you can do art. But, the focus on easy use for pixel art that Aseprite has is unparalleled, in my opinion.
My approach is minimalist and going for cute aesthetics. Even though the game will involve heavy topics, I do not plan to make it feel depressive in general. Horrible things happen in the world every single day, but that doesn't make the flower that just started blossoming in my back yard less beautiful or a kiss from a loved one less pleasurable. It is important that we portrait the complexity of reality, without downplaying the negatives or the positives.
