Special Guest - Sandy Gordon
from The Razzle Dazzle Show · host Jared Gonzalez
This week on The Razzle Dazzle Show, we’re joined by Sandy Gordon, pixel artist at Yacht Club Games. Sandy has helped craft the expressive retro visuals behind games like Shovel Knight and Rivals of Aether, and most recently served as the lead artist on the upcoming gothic adventure Mina the Hollower. We talk about the art of telling stories through tiny sprites, the magic of classic game aesthetics, and the games and pop culture that shaped Sandy’s creative journey. From growing up with retro games to helping define the look of modern indie classics, this is a conversation about creativity, nostalgia, and the passion behind pixel art. And of course, we dive into Mina the Hollower — Yacht Club’s upcoming action-adventure inspired by Game Boy Color classics — and why it’s a game retro fans should absolutely have on their radar. Make sure to wishlist and check out Mina the Hollower when it launches soon!
