Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.

Really with this game you could just freeze every frame of a complete recorded video play-through, and they'd be gorgeous.

According to Web8bits.com, Anuncios Software Dinamic Rocky (Spanish), it was published in Micro Hobby #18 on May 1985.

And, according to worldofspectrum.org:

Originally also released under the name of 'Rocky' in the UK, but almost immediately renamed to 'Rocco' for copyright reasons.

I've been playing so much Tears of the Kingdom and Katamari Damacy lately that they've become fused in my mind. So I decided to make a bunch of Zonai devices and other things from TotK and roll them up into a big Katamari.
