Title/loader picture for the C64 game "Dino Eggs"

Commodore 64 multicolour bitmap mode: wide pixels, 3 colours (plus 1 global background colour) per 4x8 pixel block, from a fixed palette of 16 colours.

In the game you play Time Master Tim, a time traveller who accidentally infected the dinosaurs with the measles, and is now desperately trying to save dino eggs and babysaurs, while avoiding venomous snakes, egg snatching spiders, and being squashed by the mumosaur's foot.

Gotta go fast away from that mumosaurus!!!

Nice work. The background kind of reminds me of PETSCII by the way.

I'm not sure I understand the question - I just used the available colours? :)

I love the C64 colors! Where did you get that color scheme?

Dino Eggs was one of my fave games when I had my first C64 when I was a kid. Still a pretty fun game today and you captured it greatly. Super lovely illustration indeed.

Also, the way you are mixing your more cartoony style with the more angular background elements works really well.
