A throwback to a staple of early gaming days and the easy days of the better days known as childhood. It is a flat art retro style illustrations of the classic Gameboy and Gameboy micro. What started off as just a fun thing to make was pushed into the world of merchandising.

Turning this illustration into merchandising that can be bought was a fun experiment! Thinking of how the target audience would most likely use and buy these illustrations lead me to the following ideas. Posters, stickers, pins, t-shirts, and hats seemed like the best way to put this illustration on merch!
This is for all the gamers!
