Yar's Revenge: Preview
Hello everyone! Here is the preview of my piece for the "8-bit And Beyond" show. It was inspired by the old... I mean... classic game: Yar's Revenge! It's was a game originally developed for the Atari 2600 but it was remade for the Game Boy Color in 1999... I guess you can say it's an 8 bit game, right?
Bellow you can see a small detail of my piece, the Yar itself:
As I said to Gamervision.com: I always thought that the Yar was some kind of mechanic housefly (because of that illustration on the cover of the Atari 2600 version) so I went with this concept. I also was inspired by those school assignments where you have to pin and label an insect inside a box.
I hope you like it! I'm sure "8-bit & Beyond" will be awesome!

Simply Incredible Carlos!
Nice, I like that you went with what your initial concept of what the game was because I think we all had moments like that.
In those old games they just wanted the sprites to look like SOMETHING, it didn't matter what, so that once they were done the programmer would say "It kinda looks like a spaceship, so that's what we'll say it is."
Hence why Mario has a hat, mustache, overalls, etc, because those things make it easier to tell that the sprite is supposed to be a human figure.
Great Carlos!!!
Un abrazo desde Quito!
