DTHT 2019 pt.4 – Arcade Nightmare

In 2006, a small town arcade was forced to close due to machinations of opportunistic politicians and preachers. The arcade’s owner was run out of town and the cabinets, mostly horror games, were ordered to be destroyed in a public ceremony. One of the former employees, Amelia, refused to let this happen. Rallying a crew of fellow misfits, she liberated the coin-op machines, evaded the local police through multiple states until reaching the one place outside the reach of the law: infamous Alexandria Mall.

The legend of the Alexandria Mall is too long to repeat here, but ask any witness of the midnight skirmish that caused the building to be burned to the ground only to reappear the next morning will tell you how that was only the beginning of the weirdness. Amelia used the doomed machines to start “The Arcade of the Damned,” and began to hunt down additional coin-op games with far more sinister histories.

Custom Sprites
– Illmosis/ScrollBoss: Amelia
– Castlevania: Elizabeth Bartley (Bloodlines)
– Night Slashers: Vampire Boss
– Horror: a new Freddy sprite in the same style as the 2018 Horror print, Nancy Thompson (Elm Street 1 style), Sam (Trick ‘R Treat), the Bishop of Battle (Nightmares). Improved sprites of Michael Myers (Halloween 2 lobby card and sheet disguise sprites) and Mike (Phantasm)

Mini-logos: Trick ‘R Treat and the Bishop of Battle added to movies gallery.

All newness added to the main GFX Generators, where you can make pics like the top of this post!

mini-update: Friday the 13th and Splatterhouse

I claimed that there wouldn’t be a DangerTerrorHorrorThon two months in a row, but that doesn’t mean I can’t have a small horror-centric update!

I drew a new pic of Splatterhouse’s Rick Taylor and converted it into pixel art portraits he can use in the GFX Generators. They’re in MSH Vs. and Vampire Hunter/Savior/whatever sizes. I also added a few Splatterhouse arcade sprites to the Splatterhouse sprite gallery.

I’ve finally started working on pixel art prints and here’s a preview of the first one I’ll be selling:


Everything in this print is scratch-made, including the background, and you’ll notice some new contestants in the selection grid and a few improvements in the older Jason and Freddy pixel art. I’ve ordered a test print of this for myself and will have it available for sale if it looks good. It will be on both the Illmosis prints page and a prints page that I’ll have on this site in the next update.

DangerTerrorHorrorThon 2014, day 2: All Hell Broke Loose

Another week, another update filled with more danger, terror and horror than hack-grade clickbait journalism! Better stay up late, because not only did cinema’s (and LJN’s) most notorious master of nightmares invade the site, but so did another bad creation from Wes Craven.


Custom Sprites – Along with a new design for the main Custom Sprites page, the following galleries were updated:
– Capcom: Red Arremer King (Ghouls n’ Ghosts, based on the Red Arremer/Firebrand sprite I made a while back)
– Final Fight: Belger (original and Final Fight Revenge zombie)
– Sega: Slow Feet zombie (Altered Beast)
– Movies: Freddy Krueger, Horace Pinker (Wes Craven’s Shocker, made in 1989)
– Namco: Hell Chaos and Boreworms from Splatterhouse
– Custom Portraits: FINALLY. I started with the SFA3-style portraits seen in the GFX Generators and I’ll add the others (mostly MSH-style) soon.

note: I know this was supposed to be a 1989 update, but these were sprites I meant to make last year and I had to make it up to any Splatterhouse fans I disappointed last year.

Mini-logos – Logos for A Nightmare on Elm Street and Shocker added to the Movies section.

GFX Generators – The new sprites and mini-logos were added to the generators, along with some LJN box styles to the Box tributes.

That’s all for this update! I need to take a breather and get ready for the final week of the DangerTerrorHorrorThon. Take care, have a good weekend, and try to fit some horror or monster movies in there!
