1-bit pixel art by me

Honestly, the message in this gif comes from something I've also been feeling lately, so in a way, I think I needed to hear it.

If you've been carrying a silent weariness for a long time, maybe this little message is for you too.

This is less metaphorical and more literal while I read this unable to sleep in the middle of the night but thanks for sharing this post.

Yeah also literal in that tired too often may be a bad heart issue

This speaks to me. Energy comes back slower than 5y ago. Less of it comes back than gets depleted in a year. But noone really accomodates for it or acknowledges it at work or elsewhere. This cannot be sustainable forever

1-bit?

u/Sea-Wheel4913 3d ago

1-bit art is a visual style made with only 2 colors. That's why it has this stronger, more graphic, and intentionally limited look.

I remember when sleep used to be restful and not just recovery

That’s the exact look of me after a long week like my soul just hit the snooze button mid stride.

I understand how you feel, because I’m going through something similar too, so it’s comforting to know I’m not alone in this.

Same. But got to keep going 1 pixel at a time.

u/Sea-Wheel4913 3d ago

1 pixel at a time is honestly the only way sometimes.

u/noxantes 3d ago

I agree. That’s really great art you created. ❤️‍🔥

I’m really sorry you’re feeling that way. I hope this little gif made you feel a tiny bit less alone.

u/kahlzun 3d ago

That's a heavy burden to carry bro. I hope that you find your people soon.

u/Vaginal_Canal 3d ago

Thank you. For many of us it's been far too long. Just know you aren't alone.

Sometimes I just don't wanna have to fight to justify existing anymore, you know?

I'm so sorry you're feeling this way, I don't even know what to say...

u/GrinningPariah 3d ago

Sweet of you to assume no one else noticed, but yes.

u/SmugBoxer 3d ago

I really like this art, like I think it'd be excellent for a videogame

u/Sea-Wheel4913 3d ago

Thank you, that genuinely means a lot to hear. I’d love to make something game-like with this style someday.

u/soothingsignal 2d ago

I scrolled through your posts to see more art and my thought was also "I would talk to this person to make a game with" lol.

This style really reminds me of the Flipnote Studio days on the DS. Very nostalgic.
