Well It isnt exactly pixel art, and its kinda cheating, but me and MasterDan made a image converter, where you put and type of image(s) of any size(s), and run the game and use the convert command, and it instantly starts changing them into 1-bit black and white only pixel art. You can change how light/dark you want the end result to be by changing an input command(100 is default lower = lighter, higher = darker).

It is very nifty for any game creators who are going to make a 1-bit game, since it can convert any number of icons at a time, and even gfx's.

Also for anyone who wants to cheat for a pixel contest can slip a few good icons into there and let it do the work(Shh, we wont tell maggeh, or monkeydidit, it'll be our secret).

I was inspired to start working on this when someone posted a 1-bit image, and people started talking about a 1-bit challenge&Collaboration.

Here is a sample i've got from it so far.



Here is what dan has gotten(It is a png that is converted).

Hope you guys like it, and this helps you out! Give me some C&C on the game, and if you find any bugs please tell me at [email protected] or my byond key: Bakasensei.

Yes I posted this on the pixel art forums too.
