As I plan to work on an interactive pixel game, I looked at two popular games that I personally have played before: Fez designed by Phil Fish and Flappy Bird developed by dotGears.
The games definitely have their similarities. The obvious trait being the use of pixel art on both projects. The games both also create a character that is easily recognised by the audience. However, Flappy Bird can be seen as a much more simple game. While Fez requires the player to crack the puzzles by utilizing 3D-space in a 2D game world to find loops and holes, Flappy Bird only requires people to do one task of not hitting the pipes. Still, both games are challenges to their players. I look forward to creating a game of a similar caliber with a lovable character.
