DrSmey
Hey, I'm Simeon Möbius, also known as "DrSmey" online, and I'm a 25 y/o pixelartist from Germany. I
have about 7 years in pixelart experience and a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science.
I'm very passionate about video games, especially indie games, because I love experiencing the artistic vision of a small group of artists though the hard challenges, complex storytelling or clever game design they implement in their craft.
The first spark of my creative journey got lit through playing Hollow Knight back when it first came out. Knowing that this masterpiece was created by just two people was really inpirational, but I assumed they were just born creative while I wasn't. The second spark came from the game Iconoclasts, since its creator spent a whole decade working on it all by himself and that was just unbelievable for me. That game also featured beatiful pixelart, which I always kind of liked, but there it was done to an incredible quality.
Something flipped within me and I started persuing this creative journey myself, with the goal of one day
stepping in their footsteps. "Pixelart is probably easier then normal drawing" I thought, I know better now.
Since then I've learnt a lot, I started with 500 days of daily artworks, I made
a couple small games, I got recognised by Aseprites creator and I'm now actively persuing creating and
realising my first commerial game. And even though this journey has already been quite long, I know that I
still have barely even started.
