Quick Pic: 8-Bit Teatime
Dina Belenko decided to recreate parts of a Mario level using sugar
cubes and the results are fantastic. I wouldn’t mind seeing some more
retro games remade in a similar manner.

Crafts: Raccoon Mario Throw
Source: Imgur via Reddit
"I started this guy in August 2013, approximately 5 years after I saw someone else make a similar blanket and swore I'd make myself one. Finally finished in November 2013. :D It took about 24 balls of yarn, over 100 hours, a lot of my sleep, and a lot of goddamned television. But it is done! And I'm never making one ever again. Holy crap."

In honor of Halloween, the crew took on the famous horror flick The Shining, envisioning the movie as a classic RPG.

Download: 8-Bit Game of Thrones
There are a few Game of Thrones video games, but Abel Alves's 8-bit version is the most nostalgic for those of us who grew up playing the classic NES. Game of Thrones: The 8-Bit Game isn't an attempt to re-tell George R.R. Martin's entire story. That would take hundreds of hours of game play, especially without dialog. Instead, this version casts the player in the role of their favorite characters at key moments in the series.
In the video above, you can watch Jon Snow battling his way to the wall. In the official trailer below, Daenerys Targaryen journeys to recover her stolen dragons. The 8-Bit Game can be downloaded for free right here.
