Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @[email protected] to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.

What's a game that made a visual or musical impression on you? Or maybe it had a story that has stayed with you for years.

Bastion is fantastic and I’ve loved all of Supergiant’s stuff. I’m a bit sad that Hades is the game that has REALLY taken off and apparently all of their other games are relatively niche. Don’t get me wrong, I think Hades is great and it’s certainly the one I’ve played the most because it’s sort of designed to be replayed… but in some ways it’s their most normal game, and I’ve loved the weird experimentation they’ve done. All of their games are at first like “ew, I dunno, fantasy basketball? Not really my jam…” and then it’s TOTALLY my jam and it’s great.
