Hypnospace Productivity Lesson #1 - Make your graphics look like crusty old web graphics.

[@GrandHighGamer]

You can ditch the semi-transparent pixels by just running Threshold Alpha under Layer>Transparency.

Fun Fact: Jay's not using Aseprite's default palette, he's using one that you can find as a download on his link to the Hypnospace Productivity Suite. It's hypnopal.pal.

[@unclekath3800]

Aseprite refuses to open hypnopal.pal for me. do you have an idea why?

[@Kavukamari]

oh, so the game itself doesn't actually enforce web-safe colors?

[@JayTholenJr]

nah, using a shader wouldn't have given me precise enough control over how the images looked so I opted to do all of it while creating the images

[@Impala101]

this feels like a mr mystery W tutorial

[@maggiethegamer1271]

So that's why he always plays aseprite

[@guycomments]

this is definitely roddy

[@hanssans3040]

how do you achieve this affect with animations?

[@MatthewPherigo]

There are tutorials for doing this with Blender's post processing mode, usually using the keyword "pixelated" or "pixel art". I think Jay mentioned using that method in the HSO Discord. If I were you, I'd also google your preferred image processor + "batch processing" -- and cross your fingers that it's a good implementation, BWL! You could also do each frame individually, if you only have a few frames that's probably the easiest cause you don't have to learn anything new... Just pretend you're a batch script. :-)

[@JayTholenJr]

Aseprite now has floyd-steinberg dithering so you can apply it to all frames instantly

[@Big-Pimp-Esquire]

Jay please for the love of god man can you tell me what key Sleeptime Computing is in???

[@JayTholenJr]

[@PrincessDPiano]

I believe it’s in the key of G Major

[@beeswithchainsaws]
