The craziest thing happened at my boring retail job the other day. I was chatting with an older guy who I work with, just killing time talking about whatever, when we get on to what he used to do before he worked there. He says computer graphics. Pixel art, specifically.
It’s just crazy to me that this guy was just another retail worker in this massive store I work at before this chat but it turns out he’s had a hand in the art of some absolutely huge games. And the universe put me on the same department as him at work. Mad.
Games like Duke Nukem 64 and DN Zero Hour, several James Bond games including Quantum of Solace and 007 Nightfire, the Hercules and Jungle Book SNES games, Astérix, and a load of other stuff.
(I’m kinda talking to myself somewhat here, I know, but still, I was semi-acquainted with a few people in the community before all of this, and I figured it would only be appropriate to explain where I’ve been)
So yeah. That’s why I’ve not been active on here in a while. I can’t promise things are going to abruptly change and I’ll be posting every day - but I am looking to slowly make this a part of my day-to-day life again over time.
