16-bit Games are Gone but Pixel Art Still Lives

Written by Administrator

The appearance of new technologies has, beside other useful and useless things, always brought some new form of art. Pixel art is one of such kind of arts which have emerged as direct consequence of the appearance of computer technology. The older reader who have spend their childhoods playing some 16-bit games will probably find this kind of art very familiar. The appearance of this "art" has been conditioned by the particular phase of the development of computer graphic when computers were unable to render and display quality images.
The development of computer graphics technologies has, of course, continued but a lot of people have started to feel some kind of nostalgia, as those poor-graphic but cool games have started to be more and more forgotten and pushed out from the use.

A number of such enthusiasts who have decided to keep this kind of imaging as an art are trying to produce some artworks which will raise the interest about this kind of art. Here you can find some of such artworks and we hope you'll find something interesting.
