Our local art jam has challenged us to do a Link fanart with a twist. So I did this. Okay, it's not much of a twist, but I think it's a mix of the young Links in Ocarina and Wind Waker. There's also a little bit of Pixar in there -- or a...

Aaand Plants vs Zombies 2 is out! So to celebrate, I dug out a 4-year old fan art I did for the first game.  Anyway, much of PvZ 2's buzz centers on the big bad world of free-to-play and how PopCap (or EA) will nickel-and-dime the belove...

Quick sketch while waiting for that Na'Vi vs Orange battle:  This update even has a back story in mind (albeit a cliched one): Little is known about these pesky duo other than they're once part of the biggest property scam in the Milky ...

Hello, I have another art update: How often does it happen to you, that the world you're playing in just seems so...real that you forget about the real thing? Hey, even that monster seems immersed as well! :) But realism alone won't lea...

It's the obligatory Last of Us joke fan art! I don't know if this idea is original (didn't bother googling for it), but it's the first thing that came to mind* after finishing the game. Or maybe Mario's already immune?                   ...

Every year since 2011, usually around my birthday (March), I usually go to a nearby major city and stay there for a weekend or so, visit its tallest skyscraper, then explore the place for a couple of days. It's a fun diversion that, sadly, ...

So we just released a casual time-management game (for the casual gamers out there; i mean you do exist here on Dtoid, right?). Basically it's our macabre take on the bright-and-happy-service genre. I guess we're putting the "fun" back in "...

This is my 2nd time to join our local (read: Manila) game jam (my first jam was two years ago, and last year I just helped organize the event). As always, it was a very memorable 48-hour game dev crunch time (crunch can be fun, too!) An...

Yeah, it's been three months since my last art update. Been very busy with a game due this October and I was just...well, busy. A few weeks ago I noticed some friends from the art department were posting very nice pieces of digital art fo...

After six long months of silence, a new fan art. This time for L.A. Noire: 10 cases in and I still don't know what to make of L.A. Noire. The technology's great, and so does its beautiful recreation of 1940s Los Angeles, but repetitivene...

As part of an ongoing tradition to post something gaming-related every Christmas (as seen here and here), I made another fan art with Fat Princess as its theme. I know I'm a year too late, but better late than never, eh? I have a confess...

While listening to Kow Otani's sublime soundtrack for Shadow of the Colossus, I remembered that I did a fan art for it almost 2 years ago: I was too proud of it then because of two things: 1) It was one of my first digital artworks using...

Busy with work, life, and the silly ideas in my head, and what happens? I start to neglect this adorable, little blog. I'm here to repent. Starting with a quick art: I've missed so many PS3 games during this hiatus that I don't where to ...

Last month's game design challenge from GameCareerGuide.com was all about the iPad, and they were asking for ideas that would make a great game for the device. I wasn't even planning to join the iPad hype-train, but while doodling about dur...

I haven't had the courage to take another dive into the crazy-ass Philadelphia-ish world of Heavy Rain, mostly because I was barely impressed with how everything turned out in the end (especially with that guy), but partly because the chara...

So yeah, a Philippine console launch on March 27... 2 months after I bought mine. Could've changed my mind if I knew back then that Sony will be launching it officially. It's a big deal because: 1) We've never had any real console launch ...

Okay, last post I promised that my Global Game Jam story will be concluded in the succeeding post, but due to a very interesting development, I'll keep the 2nd part on hold for now. Why, you ask? Because our entry, Crease, won both the J...

It's been an interesting night. Arrived late at the venue, and I missed all the talks from some of the master developers. I was so late, in fact, that a friend only texted me the theme (which I cannot reveal for time-zone reasons). When I a...

Tomorrow is a big day for me: my first Global Game Jam weekend and also the first time I'm gonna develop a game not issued by the company I work for. Ah, the scary taste of independent game development... Wish us luck! I'll post pictures...

So I just started playing GTA IV -- my first GTA actually -- and 5 hours in, I'm still playing that darn thing. Good memories of Driver 2 came flooding back -- car crashes and all -- and they never get old. Anyway, this momentous event dese...

I remember a friend asking everyone on Facebook which of the 2 high-def consoles he should get for the holidays. That launched a good wall-full of fanboys and girls, telling him what to buy. Eventually he bought a PS3, since we're pretty mu...

Alright, this may sound strange, but when someone commented on my last post warning me of something... I got curious, so I clicked on Y0j1mb0's profile and saw amazing pieces of his alter-ego (on his banner and sidebar) from many artists...

Just a random art very (and I mean very) loosely inspired by Mario's underwater adventures. This was done yesterday (all ink!) when I can't power-sleep during my lunch break. It's a slightly different style from the usual stuff I did before...

I know this is a gaming-blog and everything in between, but I just have to post this. I've been tinkering my other blog so until it's still broken (I forgot what "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" meant). Anyway, here goes. Maybe I haven't ...

I have to admire the Scribblenauts team -- coming up with the rumored 22,000+ items is indeed a gargantuan task to complete. Hell, compared to what I did below -- roughly 50 items overall -- took me an hour to finish. It's fun, sure, but it...
