8-Bit Video Game Themes. Back then, they were just video game themes (wow, who would have guessed though, am I right). They were short and sharp, kind of like...a short pencil. But just like a short pencil, they had potential to create amazing things (with limitations). And so they did. Now what would it be like if one was to create an 8-bit video game theme in I don't know...10 minutes? You'd probably get garbage. But instead of imagining, you can witness it all right here in my little trash garden. Check it out! This is "Attempting to Make an 8-bit Video Game Theme in 10 Minutes". I hope you enjoy!
P.S the 8-bit program used here is called "DM's Chip Machine". It's free!
