I’m currently playing Earthbound and this looks like it would fit right in. I love it!

I like everything about that scene, except the icebergs. The amount of mass those things have is immense, so there is absolutely no way they bob around like that as if they're balloons. If you slowed them down and decreased that actual amount of motion it'd be perfect.

4 pixels, and I'm incapable of drawing anything with millions of colors at my disposal.

Hard to believe that this is only 4 colors. It’s like a trick on the eyes…looks stunning

This looks like the setting for my new favorite PC RPG ca. 1992

Very cool. Are there any contemporary games with this aesthetic?

The way the ice is floating reminds me of Glacier melt and gives the whole thing a strangely melancholic vibe.

Yes, it's just a combination of all the colors you can perceive. Only "real" colors that a human can see are blue, green and red. Everything else is some sort of a combination of those.

I was waiting for a train to go by. What is the straight line through the image that looks like a train track or bridge?

RajinKajin t1_ixak10t wrote

Yes. White, light grey, dark grey, charcoal. Well, I guess they all have blue in them. But I had to show myself past the illusion as well. Something something perceived shadow

The parallel lines at the bottom make me think of that movie where all of humanity is on a train.

Pretty certain this is what happens when you make a really, really wrong turn in The Oregon Trail. Though in all seriousness this is pretty awesome and it makes really good use of an extremely limited color palette!

What made you choose hand draw over some pixelate color/scale map filtering program?

  • like im a little rusty on my signal processing, but a averaging filter convolution/downsample, then 1/sqrt() normalization to color map, wouldnt even be bad in numpy

Love this! How would one even get started with the basics of pixel art? It’s always FASCINATED me.

jonathansharman t1_ixb4gvq wrote

Not bad for a two-bit artist.

Edit: Sorry, just a bad pun - four colors can be represented with two bits per pixel.

I love pixel art so much and I'm not sure why -- just very nostalgic and comforting. Great job OP!

nandersen444 t1_ixbk0h1 wrote

Well first of all they require a lot of skill and patience to make an artfully detailed 8-bit cubists scene like this with 3D effects. Secondly, as with all art, it is subjective, and it’s okay if it’s not your thing. Just let others enjoy it 😊

Anas, did I mention that I looove your art? Whenever I scroll and see those they make me very happy. If I had a few euros to spare I'd love to commission one myself but that's live for me... :/
