    If it's from a known game or made by a AAA company, I'd expect nothing less... :)

    and I've really seen a lot of awesome 2D backgrounds made thru pixel art throughout my life so I won't be surprised if that really was made via pixel art...

    then yea if its early 2000 probably pixel art by hand id think if someone did one today they'd just make a program for it or something.

    Technically, there is a lot of repeated elements so that shouldn't take that long to create for a professional.

    Actually this is quite easy, it's just a lot of copy and past, if you know basics I mean. :)

    Yeah, that actually wouldn't take that long to make. I could do something similar in a day.


    Things like this however make me weep with envy.

    I'd probably take a year or more of practice and another year or more working on it to make something like that Sharm... XD

    I would need more than a year to get there I think. It is what I'm working towards though. I will be that awesome someday! Personally I think they took a painting and then just digitally reproduced it as pixel art.
