Once upon a time, computer games were bought in cardboard boxes (the games themselves were somewhere in there, nesting inside something strikingly physical called Floppy Discs). And on the front, those boxes had some inspiring artwork that was almost, if not entirely, unlike the handful of pixels on the screen that were chasing each other, hitting each other, or (as this was before Year 2K) actually doing something intelligent. (Some were even based on writing text and did not use graphics at all! -- just imagine...)
Now, as I've done everything from book covers to CD jackets but haven't been involved with games very much, I thought that this might catch the eyes of a programmer or two. So I set upon the most silly thing that I could imagine at the moment; fragile little eggs hitting each other with tea spoons. For what I offer is imagery beyond the usually slanted; something eggstraordinary...
I thought that the background looked a little bare. So here you got a flying egg, other eggs... even the letters are Eggish in one way or another. Well eggsecuted, I thought. Without eggsaggeration...
And by this, I hope to get to work with a real eggspert.
