Exploded diagrams of popular 8-Bit game characters

These are pretty cool. Designing a world beating game character now seems surprisingly easy… thanks to Chris Kuma’s exploded schematics of your favourite game character from the 80s and 90s.

The pixels will inherit the earth

They are coming. Watch out. I make a resolution to stay in high resolution.

Ducklings for cover

This Duck Hunt wall decal is brilliant.

Especially because it’s essentially made of pixels.

As a bonus – courtesy of the designer – is this flash version of the original Duck Hunt.

Going to the arcade, and they’re going to get married

This is a pretty nice wedding invitation rendered in 8-bit glory. I like the “insert coin” bit. And the binary bit.

Via here.

Sadly the binary is incorrect. If they’d wanted to say “Will you marry me?” with the answer “yes.” they should have had:

“010101110110100101101100011011000010
000001111001011011110111010100100000
0110110101100001011100100111001001111
001001000000110110101100101001111110
000110100001010”

“01011001011001010111001100001101000
01010”

Coming a cropper

I’ve spent a fair bit of time playing Farmville on Facebook. I recently overcame my addiction.

This picture, from some other Farmviller named Jeff, is almost enough to lure me back…
