Game: Batman: Return of the Joker (action platformer)
Release Year: 1991
Platform: Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
Developer: Sunsoft












Beautiful backgrounds throughout the whole game, using every trick in the book from animated backgrounds to pseudo parallax with skillfully crafted tiles in a tightly restricted console.

Although it looks more like a Contra-like or Shatterhand high-tech action setting with a Batman theme slapped onto it.

A tileset I did for a shoot'em-up back in 2001 called "Rombobombo" (java based in-browser game). I don't got any fancy screenshots to provide I am afraid since I don't have the final version of the game : - )
This stage inspired by the Amiga game "Hybris" :

Game: Moonlighter
Art looks decent, but it's hard to tell through the upscaling (looks like about 125% upscale, with Lanczos probably since there are sharpening artefacts). Are there any unscaled screenshots available?
If you insist on being pessimistic about your own abilities, consider also being pessimistic about the accuracy of that pessimistic judgement.
