I remember playing The Crescent Hawk's Inception so well played on cutting so close to the bone without knowing me.

All the stuff on this page looks so amazing

I've been getting back into doing pixel art and drew a bunch of graphics with the aim of them being easy to read at 100% magnification, so I opted for chunky outlines and dark pixels to use as antialiasing (which by habit always turns into shading). Turns out I drew everything almost smaller than I needed to, so here's my start on redrawing them bigger which I'm terrified of doing as it tends to head away from stylised and in a more ugly realism direction with all the extra detail etc which is not what I'm after.

There's a cute little pixel-arty thing going on over in GBS: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3961070 "I resurrected the pixel drawing site."

Everything was Flash and old and didn't work anymore, so with the little spare time I have I remade the image editor. Hopefully I'll be able to make a place to view the older stuff soon.

Here's a big-o-block of awesome from 2008:

I still can't believe what people were able to make in a 20x20 pixel canvas with a 40 color palette. Waking up to see what people made every morning was like Christmas to me.

It's a fun little thing where you only have 20x20 px and a 40 color palette.
He's musing about maybe making it 32x32@256 colors. But either way it's a fun little thing to doodle in for a few min.
