I set myself a challenge to stream how I play ETG on Twitch every day. Today is my 9th day, so let's see how long I can last. I'm 50 so my reflexes aren't exactly youthful, so don't judge my game too harshly. No sound or picture for now though.. Just me playing.. www.twitch.tv/irenaartpixels

I'm a pixel artist, game developer, gamer, children's picture book illustrator, Pixel Joint moderator, and a huge cat fan. Half a century later, I still enjoy all of these things. I'll start by stream...

Been slowly chipping away at a Season 2 of these guys. #pixelart #wip

Collection of pixel art dinosaurs, all on floating islets and all featuring a singular colour scheme per dinosaur. Therizinosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Dreadnoughtus, Hypsilophodon, Baryonyx and Olorotitan are done. There's another mystery one that's not ready to reveal yet as it's still WIP.

Skol al louarn (WIP), my gift for trigonomicon, for this year pixeljoint's secret santa. #pixelart #db32

Huge pixel art illustration of an overgrown, clunky mech in a forest, illuminated by bright and colourfull light rays that comes from the sky. A crow is standing on the boxy head of the mech, which is also bursting with a white flower bush. An old korrigan (Britton elf?), who is roughly the size of the crow, is chilling on the shoulder of the mech. in the cockpit, three little korrigans are playing. On the ground, from right to left : 2 little korrigans are drawing children drawing on the mech, standing on the root of the tree the robot is resting on. One is sleeping in the driver helmet, while 2 others are scheming to wake them up using big nails as hammers on the helmet. A lil korrigan with a big net is trying to catch a lullaby. Two korrigans are offering a group of snails a safe travel amongst the mayhem. One is looking at small mushrooms on a root covered by moss. Another is trying to pull a red small mushroom from the ground. Under the robot, two korrigans are trying to pull what appears to be a radioactive battery out of a small pond of water.
Two korrigans are using one of the doors of the cockpit as a swing. One of them is looking slightly up, seemingly surprised. One is hopping out of the canon of the mech, looking into the same direction. Another one is playing with rocks along the river, also looking surprised. On the tree, a small dragon that mostly looks like a lizard with wings and a long neck is climbing. A korrigan is climbing after it, trying to catch it. And the last korrigan is sitting on one of the roots of the tree, looking at the dragon too.
In the distance, in a hole on the tree, a grumpy owl is looking at the spectacle.

I've started working on one of the backgrounds for my #platformer. For now, just a very rough and undefined wip in #timelapse. I'll play more with the color palette and parallax later. Canvas size 684x384 px... for now. #pixelart

Raffle time then ! Show me a proof of donation (min 5€) you made in June to a Palestinian fund to enter, and get a chance to win this 30x40cm pixel deluge print! I'll draw the winner in two weeks (closing the 18th of June) and send it to the winner signed or not, depending on the winner's will

30x40cm print of the pixel art rendition of painting Le Déluge, by leon Comere. The piece depicts a handfull of naked people packed on a rock in the middle of the sea, under a heavy rain. They're laying on the ground, screaming, sharing their refuge with a dog and two lions. People are drowning.

This started as a doodle, so I wanted to see where it would lead me (the initial shape was a pear ). It turned out to be some crazy, somewhat villainous janitor. Well, maybe next time will end as a superhero. Who knows.. #pixelart

My Elf King, a creepy #animation I made a few years ago. #pixelart with effects, so again not so pure as it should be. Maybe I'll find some time to do it without those effects. Anyhow, I hope that you'll like it..

"Bud Redhead - The Time Chase", a platformer that I made back in 2003 together with my husband. In my opinion, those were the golden years of indie games, and I'm happy that I could be part of that small community. #pixelart, #budredhead, #indiegamedev

My gift for this year pixeljoint secret Santa, for @magickbird.bsky.social #pixelart

Pixel art mockup. Top down scenery in a snow forest by night. An old industrial car on skis is lighting up the scene. 2 detectives in black coats are standing in front of a naked corpse pierced by a black stick. A dialog box with a portrait of the detective, tied hair, with her hat in her hand. In the other side, dialog portrait of the corpse.
Text : does he know, you ask yourself. Doesn't matter. You feel his gaze, and the silence is breaking you. You must say something. 3 choices of dialog: i know him (deceiving) who was your informant again (persuasion) why are we dealing with dead vampires (innocence)

Yay!! Finally can post some of my gifs here.. Crystal shop scene, #pixelart, #animation, made for some abandoned project. As I already mentioned it before, it took me some 170 hours to make this animation. Not pure pixel art, but hey..
