Hi pondo!! 🧚‍♀️ 🧙‍♂️ 🧝‍♀️ 🔮 i hope u are doing well today <3 ik u have extensive know)edge/appreciation for video game environment designs so i was wondering!! What are some of your faves? Could be places indoor or outdoor in video games, im painting some things today and i luv the graphics u put on swordquest all the time- just thot id ask if u had any fav images <3 no worries if not tho, have a wonderful day ☔ 🌈!
what a nice ask!!!!! thank you for noticing my interest in that stuff <3 there is something about my autistic mind that makes me absolutely crave intricate lowpoly spaces.
the first place my mind goes is Graffiti Kingdom.
Tumblr media
an unflinching march through a serene psychedelic environment overflowing with creativity and charm. my favorite platformer. cannot recommend enough
the second thing that jumps to mind is fromsoftware games, especially evergrace, lost kingdoms 1+2, and dark souls
Tumblr media
their environments are bursting with character and intrigue. every "screen" of these games is unique, and they add up to interesting wholes. generally somewhat difficult to explore, but they're also very quiet games, and they feel like they're encouraging you to explore every inch of the space. i particularly like how dark souls eventually starts forcing you to climb apparent scenery to proceed.
some other stuff that appeals to me in this way: Super Mario Land 64, Kirby 64, LSD Dream Emulator, Yume Nikki 3D, TF2 surf maps, WoW
since you asked for image refs, i'll grab some stuff from my emulation screenshots folders.
