SodaBallin' (GB) Title Screen

Share

Saw this little game boy palette challenge going around, why not? It'd be cool imagining SodaDog if he got his own video game series. For this one, it's a tie-in to a movie starring himself that may or may not be worthy of replayability.


I went for something title screen-like for this one, as opposed to just drawing characters in different poses. The main inspiration for the background and all was <i>Spot: The Cool Adventure</i> and <i>In Your Face</i>. I simplified the detail on the sneakers to make it easier to draw, but still looking cool.


I feel like I didn't put enough thought into this at first, but I intentionally also went for a jagged non-isometric-like background and simplistic shading to push the simplified feel further, all while looking at title screens of game boy games I've collected for references. I didn't want to go overboard with detail to retain the simple, yet detailed feel.

Totally nailed it. You translated your slick shading style perfectly with the palette simply couldn't look any better. It's so crisp to look at

TheSodaDog responds:

Yeah! I'm happy it turned out good in the end!
