Platform - Panic in Robot City

Panic in Robot City.  

I spent a few moment yesterday playing with a few Mode 0 pixels :) 
Really enjoying the challenge working with double wide pixels.

Nearly lost this image from some accidental deletion (thankfully I could recover the file)

Amstrad - a visual compendium

I'm a big fan of Sam Dyer's Bitmap Books. I plan on buying all of his creations via Kickstarter Campaigns.  Currently raising money for the Nintendo Entertainment System/Famicom Compendium, I do hope he reaches the goal of £175,000 so we can all enjoy the Lenticular Slipcase.

More importantly, I hope on his todo list is an Amstrad Book, and in the spirit of this was curious what the cover might look like.  This concept was lightly based off the ZX Spectrum Compendium.

The colour of each box below represents 26 (+ black) of the 27 colour palette the Amstrad CPC computers have.
