Happy 40th, Pac-Man

Pac-Man turns forty today. I never lost any money to it, but I've definitely lost a lot of time.

My favorite part of this illustration was creating the graphics the way they’re actually created on computer screen: specifying each color as a combination of the red/green/blue subdivisions that comprise a color pixel, rather than simply using regular white or yellow. There’s no yellow to be found in this graphic—that’s red+green you’re seeing. (I also used this technique in one of my earlier shots, "West of Eden": https://dribbble.com/shots/11344694-West-of-Eden)
