A love letter to video games Sticky

Pixel Ai Dash is truly a love letter to video games of the 2000s-2010s. I loved those games and I am sad to see how low the game industry has fallen. A bunch of copy and paste videogames, and oversaturation of the same content over and over again. 

I want something new, but very few people are doing this. Too many games are 100 GB and MORE+++. This is beyond ridiculous. I do not care if your game has thousands of assets, what happened to the time where video games where the height of human ingenuity? 

I am proposing via (Pixel Ai Dash) that we (game developers) start making fun and meaningful experiences. Not copy and paste, not another type of whatever. NO, create new things, even if it is a bad idea! Just make something new! Use free assets, use already written code, don't even code. But please, just make something new!

Pixel Ai Dash uses all free assets, all credits are within the game. The main assets are from Kenney. He is a legend! Because this is my first game I decided to stick with his assets, but my next game will not be so. I will make my own assets.

Realize that the reason I am so annoyed with the current state of gaming is not just because of the mention reasons above. People now are too involved with their devices. Take me for example, before and during the development of Pixel Ai Dash, I was addicted to my phone and social media. So many people are the same as I was before. But ask yourself this question, when did you decide to need to post on IG? Or to need to use social media every day for hours at a time. When did you decide that you need to watch funny videos before falling asleep? Pixel Ai Dash is a ONE A DAY game which takes no more than 10 minutes for any level.

Try out Pixel Ai Dash today and I hope you enjoy it.

Realize that this is the beginning of a new era for video games. I am tackling the mobile game development and creating a new genre: Mobile Video Games. I will not be developing mobile games, only Mobile Video Games. I know someone will start this era for Console, PC, and XR video games. But my focus is mobile.

Thank you!
