Gooncity - collaborative pixel art

September 21st, 2008 by Ian

eBoy isn’t the be-all and end-all of pixel art, honest. The goons at the Something Awful forums have produced a whole town of pixel art. Some of the quality of the stuff is really pretty good. It seems like many people have contributed and I suggest you spend 10 minutes playing ’spot the meme’. There is a military base, Darleks, Futurama’s Planet Express, AT-ATs, Rabbit ambulance and god knows what else. Oh, and Monorail cat taking citizens to work.

Visit the blog of the guy who got the ball rolling for more information. You can view the project in a Google-maps style interface at gooncity.com. It’s still growing.
