1-Bit

This is a hard theme, but it's also something I really like to work with. The good thing is that learning 1 bit is very useful for working with any type of pixel art, for example:

These props I made for Celeste are not 1-bit per se, but knowing how to work with 1-bit helped me a LOT while designing them.


Here's some other tutorials I made that can be useful

YES! I recognised the pictures immediately :D

This is what I love most about pixel art... getting an idea across with the least amount of pixels possible. It's so challenging! It's almost like "tricking" the eye into seeing something.

Please do. It sounds really cool.

I love this art style. It allows for some really cool techniques, for instance: I once saw a video on YouTube about someone combining multiple "1-bit" images into a single one, so they eventually had one image with which they could show every image by simply changing the colour information/palette. I had never thought of this myself, but it looked really impressive... I'm unable to find the video now... I'll update if I find it.
