1/2/2018 - Higher res pixel-art coming... Thread - Astralojia

I've calculated what it will take to complete the sprite sheets for the characters, animals, etc... of this first game.

I've come up with just a rough estimate of 200 hours. Here's how I figured this. I put in what I call "tax time", which is just me adding 30% more on to the total for good measure, as nothing goes according to plan and everything takes longer than you would think.

I'm upping the resolution of the characters by 2 times as well. This should make them clearer.
