Pixel art is art. To be good at pixel art requires the same skills as art: composition, color, lights and shadow, shapes.

While there’s no shortcut, I would suggest that in games, consistency in art style is way more important than quality. If you can make your graphic style consistent, although maybe very simple and not so aesthetic, it will make the game appealing.
