Give this person who made an 8-bit Mario jack-o'-lantern infinite coins
Nintendo's icon and star, Mario, just got the best Halloween tribute ever.
A jack-o'-lantern that was carved in the shape of an 8-bit Mario back in his 2D days has circulated around Reddit. The carving is extremely detailed, and it nails the exact pixelated look of the character.
Reddittor WobWobRob posted a photo of their jack-o'-lantern on r/gaming where it was praised by the community. Quite honestly, it's a really incredible work of art.
The work that went into carving the pumpkin is nothing to scoff at either. The creator explained that they had used a "pixelated grid" in order to accurately carve the correct amount of depth for certain parts of Mario's body.
The darker parts of Mario are actually areas that were left untouched by the carver. Since these parts are on the outermost layer of the pumpkin, they're naturally going to appear darker when the light is placed inside.So with that logic in mind, the deeper the cuts, the lighter Mario's body will appear once the pumpkin is illuminated.
This is spooky Nintendo-themed work of art is definitely worthy of a cameo in the Mario's next game.
