The Neverhood ~ Claymation Adventure
Loco adventure about a silent hero and the struggle against corruption and power in the Neverhood.
The Neverhood is old, climbing on 13 years now. But the claymation graphics, its paper and pencil puzzles, and understated hero; Clayman have got me wondering if I can track it down for my Mac.
A cute and quiet adventure.
Get your hands on Crossover for Mac and a copy of the game, to try it for yourself.

Kazuki Takamatsu ~ Artist
Japanese artist Kazuki Takamastsu is a master of graphic design, animation and modeling, mashing all three skills together to create his works. Using 3D and 2D computer rendering and acrylic gouache painting to bring it all into reality. Or at least the reality that hangs on a wall in a gallery.
These ominous, faceless, colour-less & context-less girls are more then a little creepy.
The images are similar to the “answers” to those old Magic Eye 3D illusion books, but with a splash of Japanese animation influence.
Fu^*ing brilliant!
If you happen to be hanging out in Omotesando , Tokyo – you can check out his work at Spiral Gallery from 28th Oct-3rd Nov 2009. If not only for a look at the fantastic Spiral Gallery itself!
Hit more to check out more of Takamastu’s work.
Special thanks to Kazuki Takamatsu getting in contact for info on his methods of creation.

Street Fighter in 15 pixels only.
One of the most recognizable games ever made looks semi play-able rendered as a measly 15 pixels.
I guess this would be the way to play if you wanted to be top of the arcades. Put that blast visor down and feel the force!
The work was commissioned by The U.K. games festival Gamecity.
Check out Noby Noby Boy rendered in the same way after the jump.

Machinarium ~ Adventure Art.
Machinarium will humble you in the way that Where the Wild Things Are did as a kid (and still does now). Visuals to kill and brain twisters to intrigue, go grab a taste of the demo and then download the full flavour.
Read the full review below.
