Update #15: Rachel Morris NYU Game Center prints
Hey gang, I'll post another Thunderbeam update soon (we've had a great last couple of weeks of development!) but I just wanted to post a quick update about one of T-Beam's artists-
Rachel Morris is our lead character designer for Thunderbeam, she's an amazing artist and she's given the game a big chunk of its soul. Now- you can finally buy prints of her awesome NYU Game Center posters online.

I don't know why you chose this poster, among all of them, to post with this update. I checked them out and they're pretty much all fantastic, while this one, although probably one of the most complex, seems to be the least visually appealing of the lot. It's probably all the clashing styles and the general lighting. That being said, I do appreciate the appearance some Indy game stars (like Tim and Quote) among this crowd of big commercial icons.
Actually, if you look closely, there are a couple of other characters from indie games, including Facade, Spelunky, Flywrench, and Drop7!
I like Ico huddled in the corner.
This one maybe isn't as representative of her style, but I like all the posters!
We just got some really amazing new artwork from Rachel that I can't wait to share, but I want to have it actually functioning within the game before I show it.
