fun article about pixel art VS "HD" art
A friend of mine pointed me towards this article, the title of which immediately got my blood boiling:
http://www.dinofarmgames.com/a-pixel...ces-pixel-art/ But its a very interesting read with some valid points to make - which I think are still very much disputable. It gave me food for thought, that's for sure. And I can respect people who dare to just throw such an outing onto the net knowing full-well that it is going to bring with it the responsibility of having to repeatedly defend every single word of it. Don't ignore the comments; good articles clearly bring together people with actual insightful thoughts. |

Interesting read, thanks. Couldn't possibly read all the comments though.

Phooey to that. Pixel art is beautiful no matter how many Philistines can't see it.

I -adore- pixel art. On that note if you haven't seen "indie game - the movie" yet, then do so. I caught it on Netflix yesterday, was surprised to find it there.

Here's part one of a youtube series about how retro graphics (ex: C64) worked that a friend shared with me:
[ Show youtube player ] I found it a very fun watch, quite informative also! |

After all those years, I am still pixelling.
Even my avatar is a bit pixellated ![]() Last edited by Predseda; 19 August 2015 at 14:43. |
