    Letter from a White Fox is an indie adventure game being made using the Pico 8 engine, with a setting based in Japanese folklore. Found via this Canvas post by Giulia Lamperti, who is doing the art for the game.

  • Droning Over Yamadera

    Here’s a second video by Mark McFarlane (see the first one here) shot using a drone, this time shot during a snowy weekend in the Fukushima and Yamagata prefectures.

    I don’t know where this image is from — I found it via this tweet — but I like it. Update: It’s from this “Pixie Says Series” by Zivan Rosic (thanks, Shaun).

    On top of these great illustrations (Mother, Dragon Quest) I’ve been sharing by Amelicart, please note that the illustrator has also recently released an art book called Our Time Capsule (Bokura no Taimu Kapuseru). You can order it online here, and they also support overseas orders.

  • Dragon Quest 30th Anniversary Illustration

    I shared an illustration by Amelicart not too long ago — this great homage to Mother — and here’s another fantastic illustration, this time to pay tribute to the 30th anniversary of the Dragon Quest series (which I’ve recently been playing a lot).

    It’s Nice That highlights the wonderful illustrations of Yuta Okamura — there’s more to see on his own site.

  • Yuko Shimizu

    I’ve already highlighted the art of Yuko Shimizu on this site — hey, even back in 2003 — but this tweet acts as a good reminder that she continues to be a fantastic illustrator whose work is a joy to take in.

  • UME on Toco Toco TV
