Learn 2D Game Assets Graphic Design For Beginners

1. Introduction : So you want to learn how to make 2D game assets, whether it's for your game or just thinking about starting one. But your assets look like this, this, or even if you don't know how to make them, then this is the course for you. In this course, we'll learn how to make simple but gorgeous 2D game assets quickly using Photoshop and only your mouse. Each time we'd be making a different asset with different techniques and tricks to make it alive and stand out from the others. There is a lot to cover in this course. So let's get started. Shall we? 2. Golden Coin: Alright, in this first lecture, we're going to make our first asset, which is gonna be a very simple golden coin. As you can see, this is the final result. So let's go to File New and just create a new canvas, 600 by 672. And the resolution, Let's hit Create. And this is our new canvas. For your layout is different from mine. I have the color window here. You can go to Window and choose color, and it will appear here. Also. I have the properties here for our tools that we're going to use. Okay, so let's go to the Ellipse tool, which is around the circle here, the third one, it's choose it. And let's hit the Shift key to make a perfect circular shape. Let's hit Enter, and let's click the V key to move it in the center. Okay, this is not our color that we want. So let's go to the properties here. And as you can see, this is the fill and the stroke is a non. As you can see here, you can choose it. Let's go to the gray color, and let's go to our colors. Let's choose a yellow color, as you can see here, maybe this one. Okay, I like this one. Let's hit, Okay, and this is, our first layer, is just the click here to remove it. Okay, now let's make the back of our coin. Let's hit the Alt key. And let's just move it a little bit, just like that. This is our second layer, and let's choose a different color. Let's go here to maybe a darker orange. As you can see, Let's hit Okay. And let's just move it down here. Okay, that's perfect. Now, let's add some depth to our coin. So let's go, let's select our coin, and let's go to the effects here. And let's choose Gradient Overlay. Okay, As you can see here, Let's choose the blend mode to normal. Let's put the opacity to 100%. And let's click this gradient and we're going to use the basic right here. The second one, you can choose whatever you want. I'm going to choose the second one. Let's hit Okay. And let's choose different colors. Let's click, double-click here, and let's choose a brighter yellow. And here, let's just choose a brighter orange, maybe something like that. Okay. Let's put the opacity here to 100 per cent. So this is our gradient from orange to yellow. Let's hit, Okay. And let's hit okay, here, this is our ingredient for our coin. As you can see, it's coming together now. Now let's make another circle. So let's say choose our ellipse tool. Excuse me for a second. Let's choose the Ellipse tool. And let's hold the Shift key again. And let's make another circle. Let's put it in the center here. And let's make a different color. So let's go here, for example, to eat darker, orange, reddish, maybe something like that. Okay? Or maybe we can give it a gradient also. So let's see that this is our gradient. Let's choose a different darker color, for example. Okay, I think that's perfect. Let's hit okay here. And let's add some more effects. Let's go, for example, to a simple inner shadow is choose the blend mode to normal, and let's choose ie. Orange, darker color like that, for example, make sure to use the Global Light and put it on 90 degrees. We can also change the distance here. Okay, Perfect. It's also added some drop shadow with some yellow color, for example, like that. Okay. Let's change the spread here, for example. Perfect. We can also add some outer glow with some overlay in the bland and white color. As you can see, all these effects added some depth to our coin. Let's see, let's see Our going without those effects. We have first our gradient. Then we have our inner shadow, excuse me, the first one, then the drop shadow, then some outer glow. Okay, our coin is a coming together perfectly. That's it. Okay. Let's collapse this effects. Now, we can add the sum also are some little brightness here. So let's choose our circle, the yellow one, and let's hit the Alt key and move it a little bit here. And let's put it under our original circle. Let's disable the effects like that. And let's just choose the Fill to brighter yellow, just like that. Let's hit Okay. And we can move it with the move tool, also with the arrow keys, as you can see here. Okay. Now that's added some shape in the middle of our coin. Our coin now is, is perfect. But we can add the shape may be E star or a scowl or sample, which is what we're gonna do now. So let's choose the text tool. Let's hit here. And let's select it, select it all. And let's put the dollar key. And you can choose any font you want. I will be choosing this font. Make sure to choose the smooth effect here. But you can put a 72 like me and let's hit, okay. Now let's cyclically Control T. And let's make it bigger. Let's put it here in the center. Okay? And let's make another one. Let's click Control G, and let's put it, put it underneath it, and we can change its color to some yellow. Let's move it with the move tool, with the arrow keys on the right. Just like that to make some 3D look. Okay, let's add some effects to our text. So let's go to the effects here, and let's add some inner shadow. We can choose this darker orange. As you can see that hit Okay. And also let's add some outer glow with the overlay, as you can see here. Okay? Okay, We can also change the color of our dollar. So let's just choose the first one. And let's go to the color. We can make it a brighter one, just like that for example. So you can see the shadow, inner shadow effect as you can see. Alright, now our coin is coming together. We can close these properties. Let's collapse this effect. Now. Let's select the middle circle here. And the last one, which is the back of our coin. And let's click hold the Alt key and move it here a little bit to the right. And let's click, let's click the right mouse. And let's choose Merge Shapes. And let's put it underneath all the layers. Okay, now, let's open up the Properties window again, and let's fill it with the darker orange, grayish color, and let's collapse. And let's disable the effects. Now we can put it behind it. And let's make it a little bit bigger by clicking Control T and make it a little bit bigger. Hit Enter. Let's close the Properties. Okay, let's select them all by clicking the first one and hold the Shift key and select the last one. And with the move tool, let's put them all in the center. And just like that, now let's just click the our background. And let's move it with the arrow keys. Just like that, as you can see. Okay, we can make some small change. Let's go here to the Ellipse tool and just double-click on the effects. Our inner shadow here is a little bit darker. We can make it brighter just by putting it like that. Okay. You can make it the opacity a little bit just like that. Okay? We have also our drop shadow and alright, let's select those three, and let's put it on the center. Okay, let's select our text again and move it a little bit with the arrow keys. Okay, that's perfect. Now let's merge them all together and then select them all and click Merge Layers. Alright, this is our coin. And one final touch. Let's make another layer. Let's choose the brush tool. And let's choose the general. And this shows the soft brush. As you can see. Let's put it to, for example, to 400. And let's choose a brighter yellow. And let's make just one click. And we can put it to overlay. As you can see here. Now, there is a very small problem. If we select our background, let's put a gray color and let's go to the fill tool paint bucket. And if we paint it, let's make it a brighter color. There is some small glowing here, which is going to affect our game in the future. So let's just click our layer, hold the Alt key. And as you can see, there is a small arrow. And let's just click it. And that will make it a mask to our coin, so nothing will go outside it. There you go. This is our goin. Congratulations on making your first very simple but very looking asset. You can now disabled the background and you can merge them together as you can see here. And you can go to File, Save As. And you can choose PNG, give it a name and save it, click Save. Thanks for watching and I will see you in the next lecture. 3.

What's Next ?: Congratulations on finishing the course. I hope you enjoyed it and learned a lot from this assets. Now the best way to improve your skills is by keep practicing each day on making all these assets again and again by yourself without watching me. So you can remember and understand each step correctly and perfectly. As you can see, we've created all these assets. Each asset have different techniques, but they all share the same approach, which is making a simple shape with any tool you want. Added some good combined colors that looks good together, and added some effects in small details at the end so we can bring our asset to life. Now I want you to make all these assets again, but with different colors. For example, this portion, it's with the red color. It means a health Potion. You can make the same potion but with a different color, maybe like a blue color or maybe a purple arrow. Now, as you want, maybe a green as you like, make it a magical potion. Also the bugs. You can change it to maybe golden box or treasure box as you like. Also the tree you can reuse, you can change them to the blue color. Maybe it's in the winter, if frozen trees as you'd like. Also, you can add some details to the other assets. For example, this going, you can add it to it, some small cracks like that. Also, you can add some cracks to the top of our potion here as you want. And this is a small example that I made. Another coin just with the same steps is circle. Inside the circle, I put in my name here, I added some cracks here as u. So in some effect here as we did here in our coin. And a different gradient color here. As you can see. And remember, it's all about simple shapes, good colors, and small details. Once you understand this, you can make any asset you want. Thanks so much for taking this course and giving me some of your time. I hope I helped you enough. And now I wish you the best of luck with your journey.
