That doesn't make him look tough. Maybe a little naughty, but that's all.

Apparently the game is about "ancient barbaric sports" so one of the events is 'cat throwing'.. :lol:

I think Kretinou found the real winner. That IS the worst box art ever!

It's a cracker alright. Still, better than I could draw but pretty far from being anything close to good.

:lol: I remember an old article in Swedish computer mag 'Datormagazin' about the developers of that C64 game Blood 'n' Guts. Greve Graphics was probably the first game developer company in Sweden.

That shaving brush must be a frothy flagon of ale for the beer drinking event right enough.

In the above "long play" you can see the game is only 5 minutes long. Amazingly it's not a PD game, it's a full game released by Rainbow Arts.

To be fair, they didn't develop it. I'm not even that sure they published it, even if it does say so in the below screenshot...

Some of my favourite ever game art is by Capcom. It's hard to believe there was a time they shat out stuff like the above.
