Here is a timelapse of my drawing process thanks to #pixquare . Think I struggled with the foreshortening of Crash’s left leg the most. Total time was about 17 hours #crashbandicoot #pixelart #gamedev #timelapse
Another shot from my fan project Crash Bandicoot Twisted’s opening cutscene. #pixelart #gamedev #crashbandicoot
For something so cold, the ice rink sure brings out some fiery passion!

Made a bit more progress on the intro sequence for my GBA fan game Crash Bandicoot twisted. This is ~50% of the opening I have planned. #crashbandicoot #pixelart #gamedev
Fantasy helmet design
Thanks, Spy Fox was one of my main references, so definitely the vibe I was going for
I'm finally writing up how Nanite Tessellation works. The first few blogs posts are up. More will be coming.

It is time! We've just released the second demo of Zabu, our beat 'em up for the Sega Mega Drive / Sega Genesis.
Check it out! 👊 zabu.team
Another old #pixelart mockup I did. It was a fun reimagined Sega Aladdin.
In game style for reference
Messing around with some style ideas to differentiate cutscenes for Crash Bandicoot Twisted. I wanted something quicker/simpler to draw that evoked Saturday morning cartoons, (there are 11 panels just in the intro). IDK if it’s too much or a departure. Wdyt? #pixelart
Giant skeleton & human skeleton, #pixelart, 14 colors.
I'll post most of my old work here, including my #pixelart. Starting with this piece.
I didn't expect such a warm reception to my anime sfx generator. Thank you 😊
Here's another tiny toy; Fossil Maker. Create random, mostly silly-looking, fossils of creature skeletons

This was a fun one to work on #crashbandicoot #pixelart #GBA
I made this little sprite around 10 years ago now. #pixelart
Boy, I tell ya.

Here is the timelapse, I used the Endesga 32 palette for this one. About 13 colours.

was thinking of this while doing my latest pieces… don’t think I ever posted it here

Crash Riding Polar. I made this in Pixsquare on iPad, and I think it might be my favourite pixel art editor. #pixelart #crashbandicoot #GBA
Anyway, still a bit of work to do, next step is figuring out how to stream a multi frame background to simulate camera movement. I think I have a game plan, but we will see how it goes.
One other small limitation you can see is a bit of over rendering on some scan lines, causing sprites in the distance to clip when the scene is extra busy.
I think Huge Adventure on the GBA uses the same technique for its chase levels.
For performance I sort/order all the entities at build time, which is fast but means we can’t change the depth of entities dynamically. In this case though it’s fine because this is going to be used for a boulder chase style level, with Crash riding a Polar bear towards the screen.
Messing around with pseudo 3D on the GBA for Crash Bandicoot twisted. The crates are 2D sprites that have been rendered offline in different perspectives, (depending where in the camera they are displayed) and carefully placed/scaled to simulate depth. #retro #pixelart #gamedev
