Description
A quick ref-sheet for clients who are not all that familiar with common pixel art sizes.
Left to right, they are 8x8, 16x16, 32x32, 64x64. The same object in different sizes.
The amount of work that needs to be put into them is increased exponentially, and as a rule of thumb I do not make sprites bigger than 64x, nor do I animate them. That does not however mean that the 8x sprites are the easiest ones - In fact, figuring out how to aptly convey an idea with that small a space can be sometimes harder than a 64x sprite.

16x and 32x are the optimal sizes, but I do enjoy making working with small resolutions most.
