Iam8bit videogame world map

Commissioned by Iam8bit, this world map consists of well over 50 worlds, from different videogames, all drawn into one map. It was a very fun and daunting task. There were numerous iterations on the map. As this was bounced back and forth, there was an opportunity to add something new to it. The number of worlds definitely grew over time. Jon and Amanda were great to work with, and I am glad it worked out in the end, and we got it sent to the printers in time for the DICE conference. Now you can get it at I am8bit gallery!

here's an article by Polygon about the map.
