Now you can watch my last year's talk at Full Indie Summit about the postmortem art of Celeste!
I talk a bit more about my process for making and implementing pixel art for the game and also answer some questions the public had.

Feel free to ask me anything in the comment session below!
I'll reply as much as I can.

Stay safe and see you for this Saturday's stream at 11:30 am (GMT-8)! 🖤

Hi Pedro, very interesting talk! How was the size of Madeleine decided? What about her hitbox shape?

We start with the hitbox first, which was 8x12, then the sprite was drawn around it. Player sprites are usually a little bigger than the hitbox, so there's more space for player. The canvas I used is 32x32 but her actual area is usually no bigger than 14x14.

Hey Pedro, seems like the video got taken down. Any idea why?
