Text Mode is a tile-based display system used by older computers, and it turns out it makes for a pretty fun art project when you take those tiles and try to make pictures out of them! In this video I share a text mode workflow of starting from a pixel art image, then importing that into the editor to use as the basis for the tile illustration.
