It’s been a while since I made an entry in my 1-bit Metroid series, so I thought I’d better rectify that.
This is a slight reinterpretation of the opening to Super Metroid where the Baby has yet to be stolen by Ridley, but I had to include Samus here.
Next up
The second of four entries I’m making for @/Polyduck’s 2024 Nokia Collab, this iso survival horror game was almost inevitable.
I was surprised that isometric would work so well on a 96x65 pixel canvas, but pleased at the same time.
All done.
It’s just a shame we can’t generate charges faster to support more creators…

The third of four (?) entries I’m making for @/Polyduck’s 2024 Nokia Collab, I decided to go for a rogue-like for this one.
Behind the scenes, I did make everything out of 8x8 pixel tiles to give some extra cohesion to the style.
Peachy!! 
Dragonite is rather strange for a pseudo-legendary, with its friendly demeanour, but it’s such a nice Pokémon for that reason. The Go-Line palette also works so well for it.
Many thanks to @/bluwit for suggesting the subject and concept for this piece. 
I mainly did this as a fun exercise in colouring a sprite using the Extended Pico-8 palette, but I also like Yoshi so it served two purposes.
I normally don’t make character sprites, so this took a while and I am happy with the end results.
Idk I just really like this guy 
Some Kirby doodles made with markers!
It took a little longer than planned, but I made my fourth and final entry made for the 2024 Nokia Collab.
I always had fond memories of SHMUP’s and I’d never realised the complexity behind them. This 1-bit version is a nod to those efforts.
