Hey it's Pixel Day over at Newgrounds!

This is my take on the concept of leveling up. Plus a snake!

Here is a process image of the steps that got me to the current state:
www.newgrounds.com/dump/draw/e…

Taking advantage of being a programmer, I wrote a little program that created the spirally thing surrounding the dude in the middle. Of course I had to do the shading by hand, but I can't imagine drawing the form of it without the program.

I later converted the original program into shader code if you wanted to see some spinny things:
- www.shadertoy.com/view/4tXBRH
- www.shadertoy.com/view/4tXfR8

I also wrote a program to make the flat ground layer, since I wanted the lines to be more perfect.
Anyway this was really fun, and I'd love to do more stuff like this in the future. And since I've been working on a chiptunes album, I think I should use this as the cover art.
