Skrillex Quest: 8bit goodness
Ok, I don’t hide the fact that I’m not much of a Skrillex fan, but this… this is just too awesome. With Skrillex‘s music as the soundtrack, game developer Jason Oda created a flash-based video game that’s breathing 8bit nostalgia all over. The game, reminiscent of the classic ‘Legend of Zelda’, is about overcoming the dreaded “dust on the cartridge”-syndrome that plagued so many kids in the 80’s. As an eigthies kid… I say mad props! Play it here.
