I am an indie game dev and currently, I don't know where to start drawing pixel art style. I've already made the code but I don't know the design. Can somebody give me a tip for starting to make Pixel art?

Hello everyone. I am an Indie Game Developer and love making games. I started making games when I was 11 and that became one of my hobbies. The games that I made were just for fun, but I want to make games for a living and help my family. I am now 13 and have learned a lot more. The only problem is, I don't know how to draw (besides stickmen) and that is a problem that I occur a lot. Whenever I watch a tutorial on youtube for pixel art, I just don't get how they do it. I would appreciate the help of a professional in pixel art style. Thank you for reading this!

This is a good thing to read when you're starting out.

After that, you might be wanting to animate the sprites. That's new set of skills, and you'll need to practice all the different kinds of animations, like walking/running, attacking, jumping, getting hurt... etc.

I had the same requirement, bought a course on Udemy. Never got around to watching more than ~1 hour so can't say if it works.
If you're a video-learner take a look at offers on Udemy perhaps. There were quite a few high ranked ones.

Good luck!
