I am afraid I wouldn’t qualify… except for _“Played and enjoyed many point-and-click adventures”_ (and perhaps two of the core requirements) 😭 But enough sobbing: the key message here is _“an unannounced 2D pixel art adventure game. Our new game will honor the past, but look to the future. It is currently at an early stage”_ 🥳 ---

Ok, here’s my pitch… As art director I will hire Mark Ferrari and Octavi and I’ll keep emailing them all day saying things like, “Think bigger! More ideas! You’re on the right track! Synergize! More purple! Less purple! You can do it!” I’ll then forward all the art they send me to Ron and co. ---

Why not try Bill Tiller? I know he is not a pixel artist but for sure he qualifies for most key points. Last time we heard about him he was doing a board game (The Shivers). Even if this game is not Monkey Island I am sure Bill would create a nice style for it. ---

> [@Sushi](#): > > Don’t forget “well, do these icons look final to _you_ ?” 😆 I’m excited about hearing more about this game, especially as it’s a 2D pixel art adventure… Hopefully there will be a steady trickle of info and maybe even a few podcasts along the way… ---
