This was supposed to be called „Terror” and was intended to be about depression. For those who think that treating such serious matters with such a level of seriousness could only lead to kitsch, I had an alternative title, “Depression Sucks”. Every choice here — composition, colours, techniques, themes — was made to convey that state. Those means are used in a very basic way, but it is not very sophisticated either, when depression strips you of all the force, joy, meaning, and hope. If you have experienced it by yourself or observed it in your close ones, and find this image somehow resonating, that would be “cool” [pun intended]. Even if it is unfinished. And I will not be able to finish it. In the end, after using all those means of expression, this is probably the best possible way to communicate depression. By finally giving up.

kitsch or not this is one striking pixel art. every shape and angle is sharp, no softness here
