Muito interessante o processo de criação do instrutor. Achei que alguns pontos ficaram muito vagos e a posição da janela do video dele obstruiu a visualização da mudança de parametros das ferramentas, talvez o ideal fosse a janela ficar à direita da tela deixando a caixa de parametros plenamente visivel. NO geral, acho um bom ponto de partida para iniciantes na criação de pixelart para games.

I expected the course to discuss more objectively the creation of an actual tile set for a complete scenario and it just gives an overview about tiles in general.

Being a total beginner in pixel art this course was very beneficial. I now have some idea of where to start and what I should be doing in order to begin my pixel art journey. Thank you for all the information, it was very helpful and interesting.

Most of this felt like review for me, but to be fair, this is labelled as a beginner level course and it's designed for people who are newer to pixel art and making tile sets.

There is still a lot of solid information, examples and advice in this course and I think that it's a good start for someone interested in learning more about how to make pixel art.
