Wat de ontwikkelaars zeggen:

Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Pixel Art Academy is a research-based game. I continually apply educational theory and studies to improve the learning experience. Player feedback is an important aspect of this and allows me to optimize the tutorials and polish the user experience to maximize learning outcome.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'The game will stay in Early Access as long as is needed to reach a good educational outcome of the initial Pixel Art Fundamentals course. The duration of this is impossible to predict, but the answer would be in years rather than months.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The initial full version of Pixel Art Academy: Learn Mode aims to feature 3 storylines, each applying pixel art fundamentals to a different topic: characters, environments, and items. The Early Access version is planned to start with just one of these areas and expand until all are completed and improved based on player feedback.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The game's engine and the first course (Pixel Art Tools) are done and coming soon in a free demo. The development will continue on the Pixel Art Fundamentals course which will launch in Early Access with 1 of the 3 storylines.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Yes, the game's Early Access price will be lower and match the base price from the game's previous crowdfunding campaigns in the past. Out of respect for my early supporters, there will be no sales during Early Access and the game will never be cheaper than right now. As previously planned, the price after the full launch will be 50% higher than in Early Access.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'The game will feature an opt-in research mode where you will be able to contribute your learning statistics for a quantitative analysis on anonymized data. In addition, you can always provide qualitative feedback on the discussion boards or my Discord.'

Over dit spel

Pixel Art Academy is an educational game for learning how to draw. In Learn Mode, you jump straight into the game's interactive tutorials for the fastest way of becoming a pixel artist. After you learn how to use the basic drawing tools, you put theory into practice by first copying an existing pixel art sprite. When you've shown you got the hang of the tools, you get to create your own art by drawing sprites for a snake game—and then play your creation!

Learn by doing


Pixel Art Academy's interactive tutorials are designed for learning by doing. While there will be plenty of nerdy reading, all lessons are immediately followed by drawing what you've learned.

Test your knowledge


Before you move on, you want to make sure you understand what you've been learning. Pixel Art Academy uses formative assessment to identify gaps in knowledge so that you can apply further study and practice to build strong fundamentals.

Become a game artist


You can't be an artist by just copying other people's work. It's time to create your own art! In Pixel Art Academy, you will be working on various projects, most of them creating art for classic games such as snake, invaders, block breaker, and pinball creator.

Play your creations


Immediate feedback is very important. Start up the game and see how your sprites look in context. Then jump back to the canvas and immediately see your changes.

Future development


I've been working on Pixel Art Academy for almost a decade, building the game's engine, writing the story, and narrowing down the learning design. While the bigger adventure game that I have in mind is still far from complete, the game's educational core is ready to be shared with a wider audience. That's why I created Learn Mode, a standalone single-player version that includes just the polished learning content.

During the Early Access period, I will create tutorials, challenges, and projects that cover the major pixel art fundamentals (jaggies, dithering, and aliasing), applied to different areas (characters, environments, items). After this first course gets a full release, the development will continue to other areas (drawing from observation, perspective, shading …) as well as integration of the new content into the game's full Adventure Mode.
