Pixel art of a certain rock group from the 80's... They never quite made it off the ground. (Made in Dec 2024)
Another Xenogears test animation, I decided to recreate Fei's introduction of him painting from the game. I made this pretty quickly just to get an idea of trying to do more "complicated" animations with him. Model by @pict0dev.bsky.social. #xenogears
#ゼルダの伝説40周年 #Zelda40th It's been 5 years since I last modeled Zelda 1 Link, so I revisited him. I'll be interested to pose the model later this year!
Who coined "Metroidvania"? It wasn't @jparish.bsky.social, and he'll be the first to tell you. Besides, there are far more interesting questions, like: How did it spread? Evolve? And what's it got to do with rickrolling? Watch til the end for a post-credits sting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8set...

Yesterday, I uploaded the ISO image of one of the rarest videogames known to exist, of which a single copy is known to exist in the online world. After years of appeals, its owner finally agreed to share it with me so that I could in turn share it with the world.
Bruno de Figueiredo@dieubussy.bsky.social · last yr.After a long search, uncertain that it even existed, I finally located the CD-ROM TRIPITAKA 玄奘三蔵求法の旅, the elusive sequel to the legendary Cosmology of Kyoto. Here is the ISO for your emulational pleasure. archive.org/details/trip...
I started this piece as a tribute to Akira Toriyama, as this design is one of my favorites of his - The Chrono Trigger 29th anniversary happened to coincide with it. (19 colors, 256x256 px) #ChronoTrigger29th #AkiraToriyama #クロノトリガー29周年 #鳥山明
Happy 26th anniversary to Xenogears! I modeled Weltall based off of his Structure Arts design. #Xenogears #ゼノギアス
