Styles Of Animation #14: Stop Motion PONG

Video games began with Pong. They’ve come pretty far, but there will always be something incredibly pleasing about the game. Come play with us — and check out the earlier posts we did on Guillaume Reymond’s GAME OVER project where he recreates classic video games, replacing pixels with actual human beings.

Styles Of Animation #12: Stop Motion PAC MAN

French-Swiss Artist Guillaume Reymond has been creating stop motion films of classic video games using HUMANS AS PIXELS!  He calls it the “Game Over” project and they are all pretty fun.  We’d love to get all the soundtracks on one download too.

Special thanks to VeryShortList for tipping us to this latest installment.

Super Mario Bros. Takes To The Street

If you were in our family, you’d know what it is like to walk down the sidewalk trapped in a video game. Usually you can’t see much of the game other than Hope The Younger bouncing and leaping. The Soundtrack can be heard in some tribal form of song, but you just can’t see the graphics. I knew they must be there though and here captured with a magic camera you can see it all.

More Mario Stuff

Here some more Mario hack video. They are pretty cool. Homemade video games are cool. Anything homemade is cool but the harder it is to do the better. Since we can’t do this ourselves we give it extra points. They could take a nose home with them today if they want.

Game:Crayon Physics

Crayon Physics is a bit like the iPhone app Trace, so it looks like a lot of fun. It won the Independent Games Award in 2008, whatever that is.

We’ve put it on our wish list in the Bowl. It is a 2D physics puzzle / sandbox game, in which you get to experience what it would be like if your drawings would be magically transformed into real physical objects. Solve puzzles with your artistic vision and creative use of physics. Check out their website for more details.
