I sold out and made an ad for the concept of breakfast
A 1960s ad style illustration that reads "there's nothing like breakfast". It features a chrome robot surfing on a wave of milk, fruits are floating around, coffee is splashing in the background, there's toast on the bottom left corner.

Hi #PortfolioDay ! I'm Louis, I make pixel art environments
A pixel art isometric piece depicting a bunch of floating islands, with grass on top. There are pieces of 1990s tech on top of and floating around the islands, including a CRT computer screen, a mouse, and an RCA connector. The colors are intentionally saturated and bright. A pixel art map of Japan, painted like a miniature diorama. An isometric pixel art scene of a hooded figure in a gloomy shop, seemingly buying a gem from an old man. There are cobwebs everywhere. an isometric pixel artwork of a little furry creature standing in front of a monster-shaped cave

While I still have the flu, big shoutout to @daikonet.bsky.social for building the best looking website on the internet. I've been looking at a lot of them to get ideas for mine and I always end up coming back to this one
Even the 404 is amazing

link if you're interested : daikonet.neocities.org
The homepage of daikonet. It's honestly a little too busy for me to know how to describe it succinctly. The landing page, featuring an animated background, windows in a windows 98 style, and various images in different styles. the 404 page, with a textured background, a pixel art rendition of the recurring characyer and some japanese text
