Would it be better if I had the top half cracked?

small quick edit to show what I mean

Might be, yeah, but the concept for that isn't as cool as the original. The first version you showed just doesn't seem like it'd be so easily distinguishable...

First you must make sure the parts you want transparent don't have any color, ex. you have to erase everything so you can see a grey+dark gray checkerboard pattern (might differ depending on what you use to pixel) then you MUST save as a png. If you posted what you needed to be transparent i could just do it for you if you'd like.

I think I got it? Changing my submission because I ended up not really like my cupcakes sooo... I did this instead Let me know if I should do the smaller version of the states too... didn't know how to resize it without ruining the quality of them. Thx.

Edit: Changed the full heart cone so the little drop wasn't blinking, but falling, liked it much better. Tell me if I can improve it somehow

This is my first time experimenting with pixel art so I need some serious feedback. Obviously it's not done yet, but how can I improve on what I already have? Also for the half-heart should I have a bomb explosion or the about-to-explode, flashing red bomb? I'm not sure if I'm skilled enough to make an explosion lol. Feedback appreciated.

First time rip that is really good.

I like this, but I think the half heart state should have the gem cracked in half completely to make it more noticeable. Other then that, I enjoy how this looks, could maybe make the message bubbles more interesting though.

I agree with Mithos

I think if you just took away the right side of the original crack and gave the inner bit some depth to show the width of the crystal it would look pretty neato

edit: top crack looks kinda weird, just not very natural imo.

First time doing something like this but I'll give it a shot.

Maybe something like this (with some shards added?) for half? Along the original line of the crack?

I like that idea very much, easily distinguishable from the original. Do you mind if I take it from there?

That's why I supplied it, bud. I've got my own project in the works too!

Not sure the other way of uploading it... XD The only other way I see is using the URL link thing but not sure what URL? Thanks for the help

Don't worry about it I'll figure it out. Happy Valentines Day!  

Replaced the chat bubbles with a little something. Keeping 4-Lom's half heart edit as a placeholder.  

first time doing this kind of thing, wish me luck
(I'm pretty sure this is an original idea?, transformed the default hearts into an actual heart shape lol)

Very nice, flashing red bomb
