Go here and look at some hot sexy chicks who ARE NOT REAL. Also, that bowl of peppers is impressive as well.

If you know what vectors are, you should drop a load in your draws when you see this. It is your doodie.

That is pretty intense.. Though they should've included more hi-res versions so you can see how the vectors scale!

you should be able to click on the images. Also, check out this link for procedural SPACE SHIPS AND ROBOTS. Doug, this should give you ideas.

I see no link for procedural ships and robots!

Also, I did click the images, but I mean like 1000x bigger, or at least parts blown up, to show how the vectors do with scaling.

Oopse, sorry, here's the link:

P.s. I could have sworn I put it in. Hmm.

Someone made a program off of this info and I downloaded it. It makes tons of pixel ships randomly, which is kinda cool, but with color and more detail.

Also, Spelunky is version 1.0 now and has a web page. He plans to release the code so others can use it, which would be cool to look at I think.
