Hunter prefers to read buggish speech than talking it. He gets too self-conscious about misspellings and loses his energy.

"I'm too awkward! You have to emote energy with your face and the movements!"

"Aw but it looks fine! You got the steps down."

"Dude, it's like if I was trying to say I-like-you but instead wound up saying I-like-bugs."

"Oh."

Just looking back quickly at the moodboards I’ve thrown together so far, and wondering how to approach the pixel art moodboard.

The big things about Rayman seem to be its sheer exaggeration on everything, almost farcical, yet still appears just as appealing and quirky enough. Colours are bright, powerful and the creatures are meant to be threatening but have an almost harmless appeal to them.

The bugs moodboard seemed to ring a lot of the same bells, for me. Exaggerated, colourful, harmless and just a bit ridiculous in many cases.

The good news about this is that pixel art embodies many of those same qualities. Pixel art is typically pushing the ridiculous, exaggerated atmosphere, but since it leaves a lot to the imagination, it can get away without ever just appearing totally wrong, it can still feel right. Colours being an important aspect works too, colours being as bold and prominent as they are in pixel art. 

This is literally the best thing to happen to me today. After being too publicly excited about the spider with the big red smile, I was told about dancing spiders by a friend and shown this absolutely amazing snippet of nature.

It’s decided.
