What does /vr/ think of retro era pixel art?

>> No.5393992

It's kind of neat/rare to see pixel "art" implored from that era without it actually being produced for something used in a game.
So... I like it I guess?

I love it, but it’s rare to see good pixelart nowadays most of the time it’s shit tier indie trash stylized for atari sprites bu with completly random color palette.

The only pixel art that has any value is the "retro era" kind which it's not a self-imposed affectation

It's a Nintendo power calendar, they did a few of them back then.

They do shift but there's also a cycle to it. I've found calendars from years past where the days are in the right spot.

Yeah it does. But worth it not to throw out if It's a super cool calendar.

Some of these were great and some were real goofy. It's interesting to see how they thought of pixel art though. There's even a few bits where you can see cartoony crt-looking stuff. I'll see if I can find one.
