This video further justifies my opinion that any topic can be made more better with pixel art. Old tv shows? More better with pixels.

Better quality Vimeo link

I seriously can’t for the upcoming Scott Pilgrim vs. The World game. The chiptune soundtrack by Anamanaguchi is enough to get me on board. 8-bit graphics and old school beat -em up action seals the deal.

Ok, I am almost 100% positive that this is the only time I will post anything about Twilight on this site… That being said, the above video involves 8-bit graphics, chiptune music, and adventure games. So it gets a pass.

I have never seen a “play by youtube” game before, but I sort of hope it catches on. It’s certainly an interesting idea at the very least.

I love adventure games. And I love that they are making a comeback. I also think the fancy graphics in the 2nd half of this video look really nice… But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a huge smile on my face when the 8-bit style font appeared and then the lovely lovely pixel art filled my eyes.

TinyCrawl is awesome!

I don’t know very much about Tiny Crawl, or maybe there just isn’t much to know. The developer of Tiny Crawl  appears to be a tigsource.com forum member named Sparky. The game is hosted on vacuumflowers.com, and I don’t know for sure but I think Sparky is also responsible for StarGuard.  Which is another awesome game I plan to write about very soon.

You are an adventurer on a quest to obtain the ‘Crystal of Ix’ and you will die. A lot. The game features simple black&white pixel art, which is what caught my attention initially, it’s addictiveness is what kept me playing again and again. If you have a few minutes to spare, click the link below and give TinyCrawl a try.

Play Tiny Crawl!
