Objective:
Create a pixel scene of a dream you had, or a dreamy situation. The atmosphere can be of any age (Primal age, dark age, roman, egyptian or even today) or world (Fantasy, sci-fi, horror). The piece is suggested to have a little written story explaining the dream or the dreamy situation. There no word limit set in stone but do keep in mind we don't want to spend the entire day reading a novel!
Rules:
- The subject should be a dream you had or a dreamlike situation you've imagined.
- It is mandatory for the submission to be completely pixelart. No filters used, no gradient tool, no smudge, blur or any other tools excluding a 100% opacity brush, eyedropper and floodfill. Submissions that make use of techniques innappropriate for pixelart will be disqualified.
- There is a size limit of 76800 pixels, but the dimensions can be whatever you choose as long as the total pixel count is 76800 or less. For example: 768 x 100 or 320 x 240.
- There is a color limit of 56, although you can use less if you want. Please state how many colors you've used in the deviation description.
- The submission must have a background (castle, desert, clouds etc.), which means we don't want a object floating on a transparent background. Every pixel must be filled!
- If you wish, accompany your submission with a small story in the description that explains the dream depicted in the piece. Suggested word limit is 150, but feel free to write more!
- It may or may not be animated, it's up to you.
- Submissions must be made into Contests -> Dreaming in Pixels

First place - 1 year sub + 50 deviantDOLLARS.

There is a limit of two submissions per person, although we strongly suggest you only submit one and put all your effort into that instead of submitting two. The second one is only if you felt you messed up. And, obviously, you can't win twice either!
