Raimais

Taito’s 1986 title Arkanoid was an update of Atari’s brick-breaker Breakout, adding elements like power-ups and enemies. The designer, Akira Fujita, looked to continue the theme but turn toward the dot-eater genre – popularized by Namco’s Pac-Man, but technically started by Sega/Gremlin’s Head-On – and evolved it with the 1988 arcade title Raimais (pronounced “ray maze”).

One of my favorite commissions. Done on stream last year. From a rad 80′s arcade game. Cyberpunk, just my style.
