Next, and possibly last (maybe just Escher in the future), in the Painter series game mockups. Based on VanGogh's work and due to his extensive and varied work I found having to make way more screens than I ever thought I would make to have a good balance of his work. Using VanGogh's 'daubbing' painting style made for very ugly pixelart so the visuals only try to convey the sense of color and spirit of his painting and in no way try to recreate his paintings. This mockup is designed as an English game but uses French just to set a mood. --- Camille- A point-n-click mystery adventure. Gameplay- After a visit to the VanGogh Museum the player dreams of the images and life of Vincent Van Gogh and travels through his paintings to discover places, solve mysteries and meet people in a limited time of 8 game hours (8 hours of sleep being average for most people). --- Special thanks to Jinn for help with colors and to the French PJers who helped with the generic French terms, the PJ SERVER for being down and finally giving me a little time to finally finish this piece and all others who provided such great feedback on the WIP thread HERE

How do you make your colors look so powerful?!

Hug (Level 2 Dealer) @ 7/10/2015 08:28

Hat's off to you.
You are a real guru of pixel art.

Qbi (Level 1 Rookie) @ 11/20/2014 09:59

Something realy great! Love the idea :)

Oxalis (Level 1 Rookie) @ 11/11/2014 05:01

Wouaou! C'est génial!

The idea is so nice! I particulary like the sky in the bottom.

Baianinho (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 3/8/2014 05:11

pixel the best I've ever seen

Zizka (Level 10 Deep Blue) @ 3/6/2014 08:09

That smoking skeleton, seriously, wow.

phraktol (Level 1 Rookie) @ 12/17/2013 16:38

this is awesome. each frame is beautiful and unique, and it all flows really well. I really love the starry night rendition, absolutely beautiful!

tesi_antitesi (Level 1 Rookie) @ 10/25/2013 18:31

Impressive! Wonderfully rendered!

DragonDePlatino (Level 5 Detective) @ 9/2/2013 17:05

Wow...this is really great! You've got a nice variety between pictures, and yet there's still a lot of consistence in your palette. The idea for this game is great, and your simple GUI really just puts the icing on the cake! :D

Hylst (Level 3 Enforcer) @ 8/22/2013 16:51

I've just discovered this !!!
Just an AMAZING work !!!
This is art ! Brillant ! Very well rendered VanGogh scenes / canvas !

neofotistou (Level 5 Captain) @ 6/27/2013 10:19

wow! A-ma-zi-ng. And you know it :)

Saiga (Level 1 Rookie) @ 12/20/2012 19:32

Your impression of 'Starry Night' is spectacular.

Skull (Level 11 CEO) @ 10/6/2012 03:52

I like the infamous 'ear' mini-game

sourlemoncoke (Level 1 Gangster) @ 10/4/2012 20:29

...can you please make this into a real game.

mind. = blown.

Psychotic_Carp (Level 1 Depressed) @ 9/20/2012 12:47

Excellent work!

TheInquisitor (Level 4 Shichikyu) @ 9/20/2012 00:04

Wooooaaaah.

Neela (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 9/18/2012 11:21

Awesome!

Nether (Level 5 NES) @ 9/17/2012 22:36

Wow, the love and effort you put into this really shows. Amazing work!

Theoden (Level 10 Operative) @ 8/26/2012 13:56

LOL I knew you had something to do with it Gecimen :D

Gecimen (Level 11 Sphinx) @ 8/25/2012 05:44

haha I didn't recognize that. thanks for pointing it out

edit: oh yeah now I remember it ws me who translated it -.-

epoxy (Level 1 Rookie) @ 8/22/2012 21:39

Unsurprisingly, I like it a lot!

albaz2000eg (Level 1 Private) @ 8/16/2012 20:24

WOW !!

Carnivac (Level 8 Behemoth) @ 8/15/2012 10:03

I like almost everything about this piece except for the white outlines around 'important' objects. It's just too jarring and I find it incredibly distracting from all the fine pixelling around and inside those outlines and has the effect of 'flattening' those objects and making them look a bit like stickers.

dianinhas (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 8/14/2012 20:00

OMG thats so cool

carrion (Level 7 Underboss) @ 8/14/2012 06:01

ladies and gents...

this is Art!

jeremy (Level 11 Sphinx) @ 8/13/2012 22:49

Great work, lovely to see it finished. The Van Gogh swirls ended up working well in the background of screen #2. The Marguerite portrait is probably my favourite part, has a really cool style to it.

reis (Level 6 Serial Killer) @ 8/13/2012 15:59

That's fantastic

philippejugnet (Level 6 Hitman) @ 8/13/2012 14:36

and I can see your other piece on the hall of fame

Theoden (Level 10 Operative) @ 8/13/2012 05:50

This is the best one of the series in my opinion.

I was suprised to see that in the last scene the ghost speaks in Turkish.

"All your base belong to us"

I am from Turkey and just curious about the background of that desicion.

SturmgewehrKreuz (Level 4 Lieutenant) @ 8/13/2012 01:04

dang! great recreation of van gogh's style.

mixlplix (Level 1 Thug) @ 8/11/2012 21:34

Why has this game not been made yet.................?

GameBoy (Level 1 Depressed) @ 8/11/2012 11:39

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

It ~~definitely~~ BADLY need to be kickstarted.

ultimaodin (Level 3 Corporate Drone) @ 8/11/2012 02:22

Supurb!

ellie-is (Level 5 Assistant Manager) @ 8/10/2012 23:48

Aw hell yeah. Jalonso, you're the best.

Friend (Level 3 Hatchikyu) @ 8/10/2012 05:51

TheManuz (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 8/10/2012 01:25

Man, this game would be awesome! You should try to push it on Kickstarter!

Adam (Level 9 Human) @ 8/10/2012 00:09

Stunning. Just WOW. I dream of this game being made...

marple (Level 3 Private Eye) @ 8/9/2012 19:37

Wow ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

JerryPie (Level 11 Big Foot) @ 8/9/2012 19:16

Jalonso..you inspire me with these works. These are the best series of pieces I've seen on this website. It really embodies what "art" is..and its great to see this kind of history being translated into the world of pixel art.

Stickman (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 8/9/2012 18:06

Doh!!! My apologies!!!

Reo (Level 11 Sphinx) @ 8/9/2012 17:03

@Stickman Oh you forgetful fool you!

And great work as always Jal, It's amazing how playable it all seems!

Muziak (Level 3 Enforcer) @ 8/9/2012 16:18

your work is incredible jal...

Stickman (Level 7 Sheriff) @ 8/9/2012 16:10

Wonderful!

You do realize that Dali is crying out to be made:)

Gecimen (Level 11 Sphinx) @ 8/9/2012 15:22

so much thought... my favorite in the series so far, as i'm a point and click fan...

Mikebissle (Level 3 Stalker) @ 8/9/2012 13:49

Beyond excellent. I love the style that this was done in.

Jinn (Level 11 Cthulhu (The Call of Cthulhu)) @ 8/9/2012 13:40

I finally can fave this! ;)

EdJr (Level 9 Nidan) @ 8/9/2012 13:14

Antiboton (Level 8 Odds and Ends) @ 8/9/2012 13:08
