A screenshot from the game Birds of Impalatism, featuring 3D art by Robert Meeks. Shows active gameplay with the UI overlay visible. There's a sun hanging from the ceiling, smiling and wearing sunglasses. The walls are bright orange and covered in clouds. The scene includes a bunch of random items like people doing yoga on mats, a flamingo, palm trees, pillars, and a door with a purple checkered pattern. The playable character is holding a purple gun pointed at the sun, with a CD disc icon as the cursor. Everything has a PSX filter on top.3D art by Robert Meeks showing an isolated house. It's a sunny, pretty scene with a cozy yellow and blue house in the middle. There are green trees, patches of grass, potted plants, a tree stump for chopping wood nearby, and a body of water in the background. The house is adorned with a weather vane on top and sits on a rock.A screenshot from the game In The Flesh, featuring 3D art by Robert Meeks. Shows a dark, red-colored metal corridor covered with fleshy vines on the walls. The scene is blood-colored, flesh-like, and spooky; reminiscent of Silent Hill environments. There's small amounts of light coming through cracks in the ceiling, subtly illuminating the environment.A screenshot from the game Sky Patch, featuring 3D art by Robert Meeks. Shows a small farmer character standing on a floating piece of land. It’s bright and sunny outside. There's a rock with a piston shooting streams of water, surrounded by green patches of grass and pink flowers. You can see fences and ladders with walkable spots around.
