Take a quick look at this.
This is literally a five minute custom goomba sprite. I used MS paint to make it, just now.
It isn't the greatest sprite, but it is set far apart from yours for several reasons..
The most noticeable would be that it isn't a "drawing," it is a "Sprite." Sprites use pixels,
and every pixel must be placed with care, so that they are used to their full potential.
Your, well, drawing, it isn't a sprite. It lacks very basic form. If you hadn't told me it was
a crying goomba, I don't think that I would have figured out what it was. You should use
reference images so that you have the basic form in mind before spriting it.
Sorry if I seem like a jerk. I don't mean to put my stuff in your thread, but i thought that
a visual might help.
