Some visual tweaks and the crate texture now in place 📦

#gamedev #wip #pixelart
A screenshot of a game in progress, the game is similar to Sokoban where the player must navigate a maze while strategically moving certain blocks to escape. The pixel-art textures give a grim dungeon vibe.

Not sure how long these Duck Duck Go Easter eggs have been around for, but if you search for "Elvis" the duck is bestowed the iconic pompadour‑style quiff and sequined jumpsuit.
I wonder how many more there are?

Some geometric, abstract pixel work today.

#pixelart #digitalart #art
Abstract, geometric pixel art. The piece is comprised of concentric circles, mixing colours, moving from warm colours at the top of the image to cooler colours at the bottom of the image. The limited colour palette gives the vibe of early 32bit graphics.

The cube / voxel building app is coming along.
Just battling with shadows and performance now 😅

Working on a type of web based Voxel/cube building program.
The interface of an application which allows the user to make 3d models by stacking coloured cubes together. In the 3d view we see what appears to be the start of a castle model made out of grey cubes.
