Here is a sneak peek at IcyEyes’ third circle of hell (aka: idle inferno beta 3). This is a screenshot of the new and very roomy padded cell. You know, the kind meant for CRAZY PEOPLE! It will be replacing that good old claustrophobic deathtrap we’ve all come to love.

Brink is a new first person shooter from Splash Damage set for release this fall. This will be the developers first original title powered by the id Tech 4 (Doom III) engine with improved rendering technology. One of the most notable new game features it offers is the SMART (Smooth Movement Across Random Terrain) System. Which allows the player to slide, jump, and climb over almost any obstacle automatically with the press of a button.

This new player movement mechanic is probably the most interesting feature to me, but I do have a few issues with their art style. If I had to describe my feelings about this stylized look in one word it would probably be “beastly.” No offense, but the exaggerated proportions are very unflattering.

Splash Damage is a British company and their culture has obviously influenced the design here. Not that I have any problem with that. I enjoy experiencing different cultures immensely and I like the fact that the game looks and sounds more European then American, but for me the character stylization just isn’t appealing. However, the rest of the game does look very promising, so I will definitely be keeping an eye on it.

Here’s the final and I think best poster submission I made into the TF2 propaganda contest. It was my attempt at “demonizing” the enemy, or maybe “demo-nizing” other players.

My second submission into the TF2 propaganda contest was much more imitation then inspiration and probably a lot funnier to those familiar with the original poster I was mimicking.

Today I thought I would share with you one of the three posters I made and submitted to the war propaganda poster contest Valve had a while back. Well I unfortunately did not win anything, I still had a ton of fun making them. Each one was inspired by an actual WWII poster. Here’s the first and (I think) least impressive poster from the bunch.

I’m no artist, but I was pretty satisfied with how they turned out in the end. The slogan here is a scottish one I found somewhere. Stay tuned for the other two posters, sometime soon.
