Retrometrix is where generative art meets old school game vibes. This interactive collection combines vibrant colors and nostalgic graphics to take you on a fun journey. Experience the joy of uncertainty as you explore the trail patterns and mesmerizing animations.
Switch to game mode via the right-click menu (or double-tap), and become a co-creator by influencing the bouncing boxes. Watch the art evolve in exciting and unexpected ways with each interaction. Retrometrix is all about embracing the playful process of creation.
The colour palettes are sampled from many different old school games and appear as a trait on each iteration.
NOTE: This collection was originally created on Prohibition, a generative art platform on the Arbitrum blockchain (Ethereum L2) that utilized the Artblocks engine, with all code stored on-chain. Unfortunately, Prohibition.art shut down in late 2024. While the artwork images in the collection can still be viewed on OpenSea, there is currently no direct link to the HTML tokens that showcase the animations and interactivity.
To preserve the intended experience, I’ve uploaded my original code and made available as a direct link. You can explore the work as it was meant to be seen by refreshing the page for new random outputs, as the generated image is only one part of the creative process.
