If you had an ST or Amiga, you might find this nostalgic:

Programmers might like this Stack Overflow Q&A:

I rather like:

Well now, such descriptive comments. I can really get an understanding of what the programmer was trying to accomplish with the lines of code from those comments.

Not really...

Weee, this is great! Back to Future in 60 seconds!

Great job! I wasn't sure about his pencil sketching, it seemed weird to focus on small areas at a time like that -- would like to know what references he was working from or if it was straight from brain-to-paper.

EDIT: My brightness was too high, I didn't notice that there was an outline to begin with... it actually looked like he was just shading in details in little unconnected blocks...

In the pixel work, there's a few places where you quickly see two colours turned into a block-dither. Is that an auto-function!? Extremely handy!

looks like Grafx2 has a dithering gradient tool : http://code.google.com/p/grafx2/wiki/Gradation

That was a cool find.

I often find it relaxing watching a video of an artist crating a work of art, and this video was no exception.

given the challenge was to do 100% pixel art I did feel he cheated a little.. but all my recent pixel art is 100% cheat anyway since I just paint normally in photoshop, convert to gif and refine.. but I remember using deluxe paint 3 to do 100% of the work.. 1 miserable pixel at a time... with a mouse.. ugh.. The end result is pretty cool too.. he's obviously better with the pixel tool than he is with the pencil anyway

I remember playing around with D-paint 3 on my old Amiga... That brings back some memories... sorta makes by feel all nostalgic.

After playing RTC Escape 3.0....Here is another dungeon escape.

Unearthly Dungeon Escape

How was RTC Escape 3.0?

Escape 3.0 is a pretty good dungeon. I enjoyed it.

I hope for a deeper dungeon release.

Thanks for the info, I'll be sure to give it a try.

Lol...the piano one is quite fun - did you get the secret medal/achievement thingy?

I was utterly awful at all of them, I'm not sure I even got any points in the piano one!

This is pretty cool - Lego Hogwarts!

I tried that piano game, got 1845 as my personal best, not a bad game.

The button affair looks like one of those old time side-scroller games, and I do like some of those types of games. I'll probably take a closer look at it later on.

I couldn't play FPS-Man as it requires a plug-in I don't have and don't feel like installing any new plug-ins atm. too bad too, cause I like most pac-man type games.

WOW! What else can I say? WOW! That's one massive undertaking, and some amazing work. And a ton of money invested on Lego packs.

Ok, that might be NSFW but i've laughed enough for a whole month

Ha ha h, fantastic! Nintendogs was brief and subtle, Metal Gear Solid very good and the finalé with Tetris, awesome: "I feel like something is missing...... wayyyhaaayy!"

Brandnew, really nice old-style RPG - made, like DSB, with Allegro:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/endlessdungeons/

That looks good, I'll have to add it to my list of games to try out.

Now, if only I had the time to try some of these games out...

This is indeed a common problem

all too common.

and one that really sucks.
