Please post general comments about Pixel Citizen here.

For advanced guides, like how to edit the sprite style, see here. To request new content to be added to the sprite style, post here.

hi 

I just bought the sprite maker and citzen sprite sheet bundle. I was wondering if I want the assets pack too. Do I have to buy that? Which seems a bit silly as I just bought the bundle

Hi, I’m sorry you feel that way.

Yes, the character pack is a separate purchase. You’d basically be paying for the convenience of getting 450 character sprite sheets at once. It’s obviously possible to customize and export all the characters in the asset pack by using the sprite style in TDSM, but the asset pack saves you many hours of customizing and exporting.

The character pack is meant for people that want a large pool of potential NPCs to choose from to populate their projects. They may not even be interested in TDSM as a program.

From an artistic point of view, the idle animations don't make sense. They look more like they're having a seizure haha. I'd try revamping so they move vertically slightly. It's a good start though

Okay, noted. I’ve gotten similar feedback on Reddit.

here's a resource that'll help: http://gas13.ru/v3/tutorials/sywtbapa_breathing_life_into_sprites.php This whole site actually teaches great fundamentals on Pixel art!!
