Hi guys, I’m currently working on a “space shooter” and I need some suggestion about my game graphics.
I’m not good at making the envoirment, can you please suggest me a way to do some decent looking bullets?
Also, would you suggest me to use more particle effects or light for the game? I like simple things but what do you think?
here some images:
My opinion, take what you wish leave the rest, is that there are 2 or 3 different art styles here and that needs to be unified. … the background does not fit with the landscape which does not fit with the props/objects. … I actually like the simple hand-drawn look of the objects, it’s very close to being an artistic style all of its own. But for me the backdrop doesn’t really go with it and the landscape with very few colors seems like it’s from a different game. I say keep the hand-drawn parts, hand-drawn more of the landscape and hand-draw the background. Making it not perfect can actually be more artistically appealing.
You gave me great suggestions, thanks, I’ll apply myself and I’ll see what I can do.
What I hate so far are the bullets but I don’t really know what to do with them
that’s what I’ve got so far, I think it’s better this way, but I don’t feel like I like this 
That looks way better than your first post. I like it a lot. It’s unique!
Thanks, I’ve still a lot of work to do, I’m not really good at graphics, this is what I’ve got so far now:
but still I don’t like the look of the bullets, what do you think?
You don’t have to be good at art. You have to be consistent. Your game has a unique style to it, and that makes it stick out. I like it. The bullets (that line on the 3rd image?) doesn’t quite fit in, though. I’m not sure where to go with that, lol.
Thanks! I made some progress! Somebody would like to play the game and tell me what they think about it?

I know there are minor bugs, if you guys find something let me know, also I appreciate suggestions!
