In case you missed it, here is my first attempt to mess with pixel art.  I will probably release a short promotional video like this with each novel I release.  Hope you find it nostalgic if you are my age, or at least fun if you are younger.

  1. I saw the video and it´s awesome. I remember all the games that used 8 bits (like Monkey Island I, and more).

    Good work with that, Anaximanes

    1. Thanks, it was fun doing something retro. I might have another use for this technique soon, but for now, "It's a secret to everybody." Kudos if you get the reference.

    1. Oh it is from the original Legend of Zelda. There's a Moblin in a cave that gives you money, but it says, 'It's a secret to everybody' over his head.

  3. I didn´t play the Original Legend of Zelda. I was playing in my youngest years Baldur´s Gate I and Ishtar (two RPGs PC)

    1. An excellent question! My cryptic, though I do hope, acceptable answer is quite so. This shall become much more evident in time. In fact, I am almost certain that the project I release Halloween (containing over 1300 scenes) will definitely show it more. You see, so far people have little glimpses because I mostly have only introductions. The release of The Anax marks the 3rd fully finished novel. As each title becomes finished, you will see what characters crossed over. I even put subtle, hidden secrets that the most observant fan may see and go 'oh that's cool'! So there is continuity amid the novels, however, they need not be read in chronological order, yet to understand the big picture, one would probably need to read them all.

    2. WEll, was asking, as Cereborg Inception, has characters named the same as in of Sex and Souls, as well as Desideratum, then Cult of Corruption is mentioned, the organization atleast, in one part of OSAS, and then the main guy of it, is in Slugs and Bugs i believe.

      Though due to how little is released of many of the others, actual confirmation is not entirely possible, from a readers standpoint, so i thought to ask.

    3. On the 29th and 30th of October, I am releasing two new YouTube videos, and one of them will have a timeline of events and explain a bit more how they fit together, as well as show the chronological order they occur in.
