Oh man, some of these need to be on my wall, or a t-shirt, now . These are a bunch of iconic videogame characters, as drawn by artist Alexander Shen . The catch? He only had 25 pixels – a 5×5 block – to squeeze in their likenesses.
The resulting images are highly abstract, yet still recognisable if you have a reasonable knowledge of games. I mean, that first one up there is laughably easy – Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach With A Moustache. You ain’t fooling me, Shen!
Did you get ’em? If so, head to Shen’s Flickr page for a lot more of these.
