Description

More PLACEHOLDER art. Dupa Genetics tour boy.

I needed something to allow you to fast travel and offer some other features like play cassettes you find in game. I basically took the idea from the Louvre which uses Nintendos for digital tours, which is pretty neat.

Bonus points if you know the console I’m using as placeholder art here. I remember look at my brothers old Hyper magazines and wanting it bad.

Getting real close to finishing constructing all the puzzles for the second half of the game. Then to the object interactions/dialogue, then insane art crunch, then voice acting :D Then polish the shit out of it.

Haha this is brilliant !

I would consider trying it in Commodore Beige colour .

I gave it a try. The result is not ideal, but that's what I could get with some quick color adjustments. Note: the original is not OC.

You made the right call. Very cool!

Amazing thanks for sharing that. !

I’m torn. The slate grey looks better - but maybe the beige is more authentic to the period ??
