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.

description

This was so much fun to work on, had the chance to collaborate with Dela Longfish and Bjorn Hurri on the design of the Norns for the game. We did a lot of explorations and pitches for how the scene would play out, playing with scale and the style. The idea being that they are share elements of the past, present and future of the same character and how that gets reflected on their design. This was their final design for the game.

It's an incredible piece, the quest and scene is brilliant. It is a little short but that is because they are of little help. It is a very well put together scene.

But I don't get the past present and future bit because they go to pains to spell out that they are no omniscient or special, just well read and good at reading people. They can predict with some certainty based on their knowledge of someone, what they will do but they don't have a vision of it.

That said I felt they were lying.
