Building a “Shorts Backgrounds Asset Pack” for Myself

by | Nov 21, 2025 | Projects | 0 comments

One of my goals for November 2025 is to create more pixel art assets.

At first, I was thinking that I’d work on more Save the Geddonverse game assets like characters, enemies, etc.—but life is happening (the Artelier’s improvement phase has begun), and I can’t work when people are around. Even less try to understand how to code my game with random drill sounds throughout the day!

Drawing, on the other hand, is easier—and I can also reuse previous pixel art and modify it without tearing my hair out if I’m interrupted. So, as I contemplated what to do, I realized that I also wanted to create more videos and shorts. And having a premade background for the shorts would help with production.

So this is what I am building at the moment: shorts backgrounds, to create an asset pack for myself. The goal? A new background for each topic I want to approach.

I’m pretty happy, first of all because my beloved husband complimented my progress in pixel art, but also because I think it’s a smart way to reuse previous work. It’s also in line with my decision to create what I need as I go along, as much as possible.

If you want to check out my shorts, you can see them on YouTube!
