Welcome, Sunday Morning Comics contributor, Rich Grillotti of PIXELJAM.

“Low resolution games for high resolution people.” Pixeljam creates perfectly pixelated and incredibly fun games and pairs them with great electronic music. Their current flagship character, Potatoman, in Pixeljam’s Potatoman Seeks the Troof, aesthetically harkens back to a simpler time of video-gaming, but functionally is no joke. I want to simultaneously pull all of my hair out and clear my schedule for the next month to conquer just the first level. 

I came across Rich’s Pixeljam comics one day and loved them. They even have a web platform for you to make your own! 

Check out Pixeljam’s Games site.

Check out and follow Pixeljam’s tumblr for more great gifs and stills. 

If you send us Potatoman-related art, we’ll send you a promo code for the game and soundtrack.  Details on the contest are here.  Info on the game here.

Happy 2013!

Potatoman rides again!! :D

This is a random image I felt inspired to make of Potatoman (in Atari 2600 style) riding the unicorn from our recent Retro Unicorn Attack. (a “de-make” of Adult Swim’s Robot Unicorn Attack).  

Why not!  We love them both very much.

And the 5th of 5 winners of our Pixeljam Art Contest is….. “Fancy Dino” by Josh Frankel.  

Awesome!!!  Thanks so much for everyone that participated. We really enjoyed this and want to hold another one soon.  For the time being, We’re very interested in any Potatoman art that anyone may feel inspired to make.  We’d love to see your interpretations of that little guy. Feel free to send artwork to “pixeljamgames@gmail.com”. We will review & post it all here, and on a new tumblr we’re about to set up for potatoman related art in particular. More on that very soon.. Happy Holidays!
