Down the Tubes is a (semi) regular feature where we, the SAW staff, share our favorite movie-related YouTube videos with the Wasteland.
Do you dig retro gaming? Did you grow up with the Nintendo NES and Sega Genesis? Do you thirst for nostalgia? Line, a four and a half minute pixel animated short film is gonna scratch all of your itches. Check it out.
Wasn’t that great? I mean, the synth wave music, the 16 bit animation, the direction, the shot composition, sound effects, the call backs to retro gaming–even the voice acting all just works so seamlessly together. And as far as I can tell, this is primarily the work of one guy: Luke Etcheverry. You can sub to his YouTube channel and check out more of his artwork here. I’d love to see more from this artist in this same vein.
