Check out Vimlark's video: • Classic Nintendo and O...
Have you ever wanted to remake your favorite childhood Nintendo games in your own style? For today's pixel art challenge, I'll be reimagining two games using Pyxel Edit that were hand picked by your boy Vimlark. The first game is a classic. Kid Icarus, which was orginally released on the NES in 1986. The other game is none other than Vimlark's very own Monkey's with Guns. Join along as I show you some of my pixel art tips and tricks, and see how my game art remakes turn out.

The pieces came out soo good! Great work, I love the expressions on the monkeys faces! Thank you for inviting me.
Thanks so much! It was a ton of fun. :D
My two favorite game makers doing a collab, I can't believe it!!
:D
i was just about to comment this lol
Medusa IS actually a scary and extremely ugly character in Greek mythology. She has tusks and all like on the art you shown on screen. She has been transformed into a super hot lady only later in art, probably during the renaissance or something idk.
That's it for me! I'm gonna watch the rest of the video now
Woah! That's super weird haha Thanks for sharing. :D
Its not a coincidence that Medusa got transformed into an attractive woman. You see, when Medusa was young she was a human. And she was the prettiest girl alive. Now, according to the myth, one day Poseidon saw Medusa and was so stunned by her beauty....that he raped her in the sacred temple of Athena :p Athena being mad at the disrespectful act to have s3x at her sacred temple, had to punish them. She cannot punish a god though, so she decided only to blame Medusa and transform her into a monster. She turned Medusa's beautiful hair into snakes and her stunning gaze now turns people into stone.
@@megasaIexandros there are always several versions of every myth. This one is from a poem written by Ovid that he seem to have made up for the purpose of his book ("Metamorphoses") since there is no precedent of it in any known myth before that. It to this day the most popular version of Medusa. (Absolutely not saying that you are wrong btw, I'm just adding to the culture time we have going on) This also explains why Athena (aka the coolest goddess ever that everyone likes) acts like a jerk out of nowhere.
In others versions, Medusa doesn't really have any origin story, but she and her sisters is an old godess from before the existence of the olympian gods. (I think in "the Theogony" they are the daughter of Gaea and Tartarus)
In the poem of Ovid she still looks like a terrifying monster though so I made a quick search and the femme fatale look she has nowadays indeed originates from the Renaissance art when she became more human and feminine looking (everyone was pretty on Renaissance art haha)
@@cray_draws I completely agree with you. What I said was just a version of her backstory. Nobody really knows for sure what actually happened to her.
@@megasaIexandrosterrific but accurate from what I heard. Ancient Greeks were jerks.
Interesting timing! I just beat the original Kid Icarus on my NES Classic day before yesterday, after I found an undefeatable strat where neither Medusa or Tanatos' attacks literally could not hit me, haha. The NES Kid Icarus wasn't my favorite game, but I was determined to finish it because I'm such a big fan of Uprising on the 3DS.
Great video as always, Goodgis! Keep it up!
Woah, that's crazy! haha Thanks so much!
Your cartoony styling is quite nice, the only thing I would change, would be the palette. (So the ugly white outlines could be removed)
Using white outlines like on the GBA is a crutch, and should be avoided.
Increasing the contrast between the objects in a scene, is a better practice.
Yeah, I get where you're coming from. Thanks for the advice!
Amazing video Mark, I was looking to start up a series extremely similar to this, but my boy is always a step ahead of me LMAO 💜

Go for it. ;)
Kid Icarus on nes is on of my all time favorite platformers, practicing its speedrun
That' fantastic!
Your style gives me a Nitrome vibe. Very fun!
Probably out of the scope of this re-imagining, but fighting amidst thunderous dark clouds rather than a peaceful night could have been a fun touch for a final boss battle. Making the Three Sacred Treasures be gold like in Uprising could have been a cool touch too (if you played it that is), but I think you nailed the cute NES-era Pit!
With Kid Icarus I think the bright and lively style fits the cartoony theme of the original game well. You fight nose monsters and eggplant wizards, for goodness sake! Nicely done.
For Monkey with Guns, I wasn't sold on the style until the very end. The tweaks to color at the end really helped pull it all together! I think you managed to make everything pop and feel fun while still meshing well. (For me, I'd love a version of the game with your style!)
Thanks so much! :D
I like the original style of Kid Icarus more for the gameplay, but your style would look really cool for something like an icon on a level select screen. Great work!
Thanks!
Great video :) I loved both recreations
Yay, thank you!
keep going, thanks for making this channel, it really help for me who started making games
Thanks, that means so much! I wish you the best of luck!
Brilliant video! I love both recreations. Challenge 1 is a really cute pit and Challenge 2 feels super retro.
Thank you! 😊
Love your version of both games! Huge amount of respect for being able to limit yourself with the canvas, I always struggle pulling details forward at lower resolutions!

Hey, I really appreciate that! Thanks so much.
This seems like such a fun challenge! It was amazing to see how you make art too! :D
I'm just seeing this comment 9 months later. XD
@@Goodgis haha :D
Wow this is such a great concept and great pixel art too!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great stuff! I would love to see a video on how you make the music for your games!
That's a great idea! :D
This video has inspired me to do my own art challenge with another dev as well! Thanks for the inspiration, great idea, great video! I have already published my own art collab video as well
Super glad to hear it!
Really enjoyed this one Goodgis! I've also noticed you're a graphic designer and am very interested to know:
1. How do you go about your work? ( Basically asking for a vector art workflow video lol)
2. What's your go-to palette going into any project?
1. I will definitely make one. 2. I don't have a palette but there are certain colors on the color wheel I always lean towards. Bright color tones. :D
Hey, great video but do you know when your next dewdrop dynasty will be ready because I and many others are really excited for the game.
The game was put on hold during The Keeyp Kickstarter and due to another project we are secretly working on. I'm hoping to put out a new devlog here soonish but it takes a lot of work and time. (Which I haven't had haha)
@@Goodgis cool
10:43 That TPT2 music slaps hard.
These would make for good pictures on the wall, but I was kind of hoping you'd give yourself the same pallette/size limitations as the NES and take the gameplay into account (Pit would be super cramped dodging snakes in that room). I feel like pixel-art as an artform was very underdeveloped in the 80s and a lot of the art was just thrown together by programmers, so it would be interesting to see what it would look like if time travelling pixel artists from today made the game art for some of the classics.
I should next time!
OMFG I LOVE THIS IDEA SO MUCH😍
I ALREADY WANT A PART 2
What games would you like to see?
@@Goodgis Mischief Makers for the N64
@@Goodgis Super Mario Land, that one level where mario fights against king totomesu. (or you can take some other part of the game it's your choice of course, I just prefer that one)
And
Ninja gaiden on the nes, doesn't matter which level you recreate.
Or
Something from zelda Link to the past, it could be more interesting because it's from a top down perspective.
I love classic games, especialy pixelated one! I dont know but something about those pallete limitation makes me fasinated. And ever since i picked up doing Java game development, all i have been doing for art is challenging myself with a 16 color or 8 color pallete limit. I LOVED this video! This brings tears to my eyes :'). I hope u make more classic games!
Thanks so much! :D
@@Goodgis u r e p l i e d
woah
@@birbylikesfox1032 I reply to every comment on my videos. :D Though I don't normally reply to replies, so count yourself lucky! haha
@@Goodgis lmao! nice work
You make it looks so easy, Goodgis.
Easygis eh?
;)
this was a very nice video to watch and i cant wait to see what vimlark made : )
You and me both!
Nice video dude!
Thanks!
This is so inspiring. I wanna try this.
You should! :D
epic video! Loved the kid icarus one
Thanks so much!
You dont know how long ive wanted you to do this
:D
The kid icarus pixel art is AWESOME!
Thanks!
I'd love to see a Kid Icarus metroidvania game in your style. Great job!
That would be cool!
The collab we needed :D
:D
I Love Vimlark and you so I really like that you are doing a video together
:D
This channel inspires me to be a game dev!!
That's awesome! Best of luck to you! :D
This was fantastic! Such a fun challenge to do honestly!
Was wondering did you use a colour palette for these? :)
This could make a fun lil series in the future, just recreating game screenshots in your art style!
I just use the original color palette and modified it. Thanks so much! :D
that looks awesome
Spelunky man?
Thanks so much!
I can tell its going to be a good video
Fun tip, not sure if this works in the program you're using, but in illustrator you can open the same file across two windows, and they'll auto update - one window can remain static so you don't get the erratic zooming in and out during a time-lapse
Great tip! Thanks for sharing!
I am proud to announce you f*ckin inspire me to complete my youtube journey keep going i am sure you will make it to millions soon love you bro :')
Thanks so much! :D Best of luck to you!
:DDD
tremendo!!!! abrazo desde Argentina!
:D
if it was for me i would probably make the character in the kid icarus a little smaller to make it look like it comes from a game but everything else is decent good job
Yeah, that's a valid point!
Again Great Content!!!!
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks so much!
Love your videos dude! What software do you use for editing?
I use Adobe Premiere!
i like how you make a colorful art
Thanks! :D
This actually seems like a pretty good concept, hopefully this is a common challenge among a lot of the devs!
:D Thanks!
In an alternate reality, you're version of monkeys with guns is a pico-8 prototype of the game, created for a jam.
LOL basically!
Nice. Only detail I would have changed with the monkeys was taking the dead monkey's outline to give the active players more contrast.
That's a great point! :D
🤩 amazing
amazing video
Glad you think so!
“Without further ado let’s get started,
But before we get started I want to tell you about squarespace”
LOL
@@Goodgis I appreciate your content you make and that you actually read the comments and respond to them, I really want to get into making games but I’m only 16 and the computer I have isn’t very great so I’ll probably start with game builder garage on my switch to get used to programming with nodes and then switch to godot eventually
Medusa is in the eye. You see her once you bl0w it up.
i grew up on this and Kirby
Nintendo actually re-released some older Nintendo games on the 3DS, one including Kid Icarus. They added backgrounds for all the levels, and it really feels at home and is a big improvement
Oh, that's right! :D
F in the chat for monkey
F
10:37 has the music of the theme park music off Roblox
Awesome! Two favorites in one video!
Now try and challenge Noa from Blackthornprod or Jonas Tyroller!
That would be awesome, thanks for sharing!
That green wall kiklop reminds me of the Wall of Flesh
Kind of haha
Medusa was actually a really pretty character in Greek mythology until she the goddess she worshipped kind of betrayed her (she wasn't there to save her) and that goddess turned her into the beast. A lot of people believe that she is one of the most misunderstood characters in Greek mythology.
sorry, I just find greek mythology really fascinating~
Woah, thanks for sharing!
Crossover of the century bro
Better than End Game?
I got a couple of people I want you to challenge
1:N8Dev - Any Battle
2:PolyMars - Pico 8 Battle
3:CodyCantEatThis - 3D Pixel Art (or whatever it's called)
13:37 looks like it be a cool mobile version
It kind of does! :D
nice!
Thanks!
how do you get pyxel edit? because i working on making my own games and look for a new free pixel art editor
Pyxel edit costs $10 :D
Yes
:D
I am going to bed but this video is more important
Thanks, Yodabest! :D
An imposter you are!
1:17 Ahh yes i also Code my Websites with notepad

Good video
Thanks so much! :D
can you please make a video explaining your first steps when creating an mmo? im thinking about making a game but i don’t know where i should start
I'll see if I can.
What would you recommend godot or gamemaker studio 2. Love your vids.
Both are great but I like Godot better! Also thanks!
Ok, now make it fit into the nes constraints
That would be sweet!
the white outline makes the pieces look like stickers. idk if thats good or bad thought.
It does!
I love your channel
Thanks! :D
I would like to see somebody reimagine a single video game character . I was thinking about doing it myself and I may still end up doing that but I was thinking that I would also like to see what somebody else can come up with . I am thinking zombies are over done , wherewolves , vampires and all other monsters are over done aliens are over done but the character that I want to see redone is Metal Gear Solid's Solid Snake .
That could be sweet!
Just curious, how do you use a time lapse screen recorder?
OBS
@@Goodgis great thanks!
Can u make a video on how you created firith or on how to make a game studio
Definitely! :D
Smash Bros and Uprising? Nah. Captain N: The Game Master
;)
Can u pls release stone and bone soon it looks really fun and gave me really good game ideas like a first person Dino survival
I would love to!
yayy
:D
I think you should challenge to Brandon James Greer.
YES!
niceee ;D
:D
nice
Thanks
I was quite literally going to say that pit looked like someone from terraria
Yup haha
I'm trying to get in to game development, and I was wondering what code language you use?
Gdscript, which is basically Python.
Hi I’m eleven and I have no game experience ur one of my fav youtubers
pls do a playlist on how to make a game like Zelda links awakening
Hey, that means so much to me. :D
I would love to remake the sonic classics, but they already have. Sonic mania, sonic 2 hd...(ect) SONIC fans are amazing
That would be awesome!
Hey goodgis did you forgot to make the health bar or smthg on that angle thing
I did. :p
Does anyone know what the song at 9:52 is?
I can't remember haha
@Goodgis Okay, but when is your Kid Icarus NES remaster coming out?
It isn't a remaster, it is literally just a drawing.
@@alu2901 I know, just would be cool to see that because the art is so good.
@@mir8clegaming896 I agree!
what is the music at 11 minutes in please?
I'll try to start putting the music in the description :D
Challenge Reece Geofrey o/ It'd be amazing
YES!
Here from the premire :)
:D
It's really strange that Medusa ended up so terrible looking - they tiled her to make her wall sized, but in looking up the sprite sheets, those were apparently not reused sprites - as in, they could have made her look like anything, and went with... that...
I'm curious why you deleted rather than improved the snakes?
Because it didn't cross my mind until afterwards. :p
pit cant fit through the entrance! lol
Shhhhh, you didn't notice that. ;)
Your re-imaginings all seem like they're designed for a handheld console with a tiny screen.
That's my favorite style. :D
the doubles tho
?
