"op Art"! I Finally Remembered, The Term For My Mazes Is Op Art. Art Made From Geometric Lines And Shapes

"op art"! i finally remembered, the term for my mazes is op art. art made from geometric lines and shapes that create optical illusions, distortions, movement, perspective...

considering that's what my inspirations at megamazes called it too, i think i should start tagging it as such. i'll go back and re-tag them when i get the opportunity

i'm a big fan of art that doubles as function, like op art mazes, voxel art stretchmo levels, etc. it gives a reason to explore the art from every angle and discover new perspectives

of course that's related to why i like video games so much, hehe

one of the first mazes i did fully digital without sketching it out first – it's just too big for paper! go from one dot to the other and back again along a different path.

Fourth Temple | Gravitas (Mari0)

…Are those Tetris pieces?? The uneven terrain here is much trickier when you can't jump! Momentum is your friend, just be careful not to slip and fall. Ooh, and this level introduces faithplate surfing!

new stream archive, in which we play the Big Run and save inkblot art academy from certain doom at the hands (fins?) of Horrorboros! though, honestly, I wouldn't mind if the academy was overrun for good…
