Draw Fortress
« on: December 01, 2013, 09:59:28 am »
This cool game gives a lot of interesting ideas. Letters ascii hide graphics that represent characters in different ways.
All painted personally. Did not understand how to load originals here.
Excuse my English skills.

Those are great! I especially love the lighting on the ruins in the second one.

Yeah, the second one is just gorgeous, and I quite like the mountains in the first picture.

Very cool art style!
The way the text is drawn in the third picture seems out of place though, but otherwise, great job!

I especially like the first and second pics.

Wow, that latest one is really gorgeous!

Would you mind translating the text on the third picture? I can read the letters but I don't know what the words mean. : )

Well, basically it says "Here will be our fortress!" However, "fortress" is in a very strange and comical diminutive form.

Thanks! Russian is similar to Czech, but different enough that I usually can't figure out the meaning without some help. I can transliterate though! : D
"Toot budjet nasha krepostitsa!" if I remember anything from those Russian lessons all those years ago... I should really refresh my introductory Russian... Now that I see the translation, it's very similar to the Czech after all. (Tady bude naše pevnostička, if I use the diminutive as well.)

Majority of the images doesn't work for me. In fact, only the last (OP) one does.

I like how there seems to be a personal signature in the background..and the pixel-ish art makes it even more pleasing to the eye.

This one is somehow evocative of Hayao Miyazaki's work. Maybe it's the goggles? I don't know. I can easily imagine him aboard a dieselpunk airship.
