Attention to detail

Busting with detail

We know that cool aesthetics don’t make a great game. However, let’s be honest, we all love games with spanky effects, lush colours, and great sound. Over the years, I’ve met many talented ST peeps and interviewed some pixel artists. It’s amazing to see what they achieved with the limited 8/16-bit hardware of the time. This includes titles like The Addams Family, Magic Boy, Chaos Engine, Rubicon, Black Lamp, Voodoo Nightmare, Deathbringer, Alien World, Skull & Crossbones, Mystical, 9 Lives, Ghost Battle, Mega Twins, and many others.

Anyways, the above animation is from my first play of Times of Lore. I like details, and this game comes with a couple of charmers. With that out of the way, I’ll keep you updated on X with any progress I make.

Until next time...
