I explored a bunch of building styles. For the color palette, I landed on making the buildings warm-toned with a few pops of cool tones as accents. This will give me a starting point to create all kinds of pixel #art buildings from these shapes.23 Jan 2026 21:01 +0000at://did:plc:seem6xosqpksjs65a3sdaeeu/app.bsky.feed.post/3md4lu7o37k2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/ginagaravalia.bsky.social/post/3mcs6lxid3k2qMore visdev for my gamedev project! Figuring out shape language and colors for the city's buildings. This city is powered by magic, so I needed some magical elements to indicate we're not on earth and help the buildings fit cohesively together.
