In the light of the revival of our 1990s game Moon Child, I thought it'd be nice to start a thread with posts featuring my pixel artwork through the years.

Here's my title picture for our 1994 Clockwiser puzzle game for Amiga (OCS and AGA), CD32, MS-DOS and Windows 3.1.

A bunch of pixel icons I made during the development period of Moon Child (1995 - 1997). At the time the coder, Reinier van Vliet, and I worked at a Dutch media company, where we had a semi-independent game development division that was very imaginatively called… The Games Department. 🙃

@RobeeShepherd It was commissioned by the organizers of a Dutch event to celebrate the Amiga's anniversary. But the event had to cancelled because of the emergence of COVID at the time.

@daniel @metin I didn't know the original German name for the character, and now I see it written I wonder how badly it was translated into English, chen > skin.

You learn something every day, thanks Daniel!
