MasterPix reproductions

I wanted to write about some really neat stuff for art (I mean the real art) and pixel-art fans.
Crew at master-pix.com has created some really interesting products - tees and posters with reporoductions of the famous paintings, re-made in pixel-art style. How awesome is that?
Of course I already have a William Turner's painting on my wall and some sweet Venus tshirt on me;)



Check the MasterPix for yourself - really nice stuff.

16k Lander - flash game in under 16kb



Some time ago guys at 8bitrocket.com announced the contest for Atari inspired, web-based game that'll fit under 16 kilobytes. We (BlackMoon Design team) took the challenge and have created a game called "16k Lander". As the name suggest - it's a cover of the Atari famous arcade title called "Lunar Lander".
We're very happy to tell you that "16k Lander" actually won the competition and claimed the Grand Prize!
Yup - we rock!

You can play the game here.
