Chibi Metroid deserves to exist. Pretty please, Nintendo?

Ever see concept art and immediately say: “I would play the LIVING HECK out of that”?

Yeah. This is by Castpixel, and her portfolio is filled with fantastic pixel art (and more). She’s done work on Minecraft and Space Jam: A New Legacy and was sole artist on this $8 love letter to Bomberman. “If you can get Nintendo to hire me, it could be playable in 16 months or so,” she says of Chibi Metroid.

“the 3D corridor segments from Metroid Prime can totally be done as Marble Madness style levels,” she writes.
