Okay, so my Halloween game wasn't a hit! So, I've decided to make another game based on one of my awesome ideas!

Should the game be in PIXELS, or SMOOTH BRUSH ANIMATION?

I like SMOOTH BRUSH!

I don't care what it looks like, as long as you program it well. It needs to be original, too.

I code in AS2, in case I forgot to mention it.

It depends on what you're better at. If you are really great with pixels, use them. If nobody seems to like your hand drawn stuff, don't use it.

If everything was smooth , it would suck , if everything was pixeled it would suck .

I'd like to believe all games use pixels. So yes, I like games that use pixels on my screen.

Pixels are good, but make them all the same size, or it will looks stupid and fake.

I fucking love pixel games. I think that the animation is simpler than just drawn animation, but it has an odd feel to it. Hard to describe, but I like them.

It depends. If no graphic is made by the author, I'll rarely like it because it's probably badly coded as well.

I find pixels to be annoying most times unless it's done very good. Then again, smooth brush games can look really crappy if you're not good at the art.

Personal Motto: I am awesome and that's putting it modestly

Do it with PIXELS!
Because it has the letter "X" in it!

I only like 14hourlunchbreak's pixel games because they're so easy. SO I would have to choose the latter.

But didn't you just do the art for the Monstertime Burgertime remake? That was a really good game in my opinion.

it is the same kind of game as long as the layout is good and the storyline is original.

i think you should make it a pixel game.
i have seen many games and even sites that use nothing but pixel and they are just great because they put a lot of thinking to the gameplay, the story and the characters in there games. i am sure that with a little hard work and some creative ideas you can make a wonderful pixel game :)
btw plz say what you've chosen i don't want to wait forever...

Do you like Pixel Games?
