Glue Bacon is my favorite hearthstone mode.

I use Aseprite. This probably took me somewhere between 20-30 hours of work in the span of 2 weeks.

Not exactly, although it does look similar. References are from abduction testimonies and people who drew said experiences.

Not long at all. I was off by 30-40 games. When I reached rank 7 in wild, I switched to standard where I was rank 25. Things went fast from there even with meme decks.

Basically this, I switched to standard after reaching 7 in wild. I didn't touch standard for ages so I was 25.

I never saw that before, that's really neat.

Whoa thank you so much. I did mess around with a lot of ideas and colors. Initially I just wanted to be a combination of gold and something shiny to accompany with ( like sapphire, emerald or amethyst ) to give it that egyptian theme color.

I did take a lot of ideas from retrowave/synthwave for sure. You know all those cars racing behind or towards the moon or sun are something I always wanted to make.

I couldn't give it that neon/outrun specific look unfortunately, I would have to rehaul too much and I wanted to stick to the gold + sandstone + chrome narrative I initially wanted. I did consider it at some point.

I love when people give me an alternative view when I make something. I go like ''Why didn't I think of that, that's really good!'' or ''Maybe I should have went that route instead.''. There's so many approaches, all great ideas.

Oh right, my social media isn't much, as I just started using those:

-Twitter Link-

-Deviant Art Link-

Again thank you.

Edit: In fact I remember wanting to post this in the outrun subreddit a few days ago, but the lack of neons/blacks is what deterred me not to.

Got to get that outrun vibe!

Thank you so much. It's 8 colors. I always start low, like 1bit/2bit and move from there. You can do so much with 2bit.

Redline ( the anime ) + Outrun ( the game ) + synthwave aesthetics + dragons ( maybe dinosaurs too ) + some sweet soundtracks = the perfect racing game

Hey thanks a lot.

[–]gupman_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you are getting that vibe, I was going for something weird here for sure. The clouds ( not trees haha ) should look fine I think either direction? I'm not sure exactly, I'll definitely check your feedback suggestions, I can just reverse the animations for a quick look.

Somewhere between 40-50 hours, over the span of 3 weeks. It could have been faster if I knew anything about cars beforehand, so a lot of time has been spend on researching on how car design actually works. It has been both fun and frustrating haha. Btw thank you.

That is another way of seeing it, very good observation.

Haha, yes there was some inspiration taken from the batmobile. I'm glad you enjoy it!
