Road Sector – Night Racing
Today’s pixel art is inspired by the video game Vice: Project Doom for the Dendy (NES) console. It features excellent graphics, and the game kicks off as a racing sequence—very much in the spirit of The Road Warrior. Later, it shifts into an arcade-style action game, reminiscent of Power Blade. It’s a truly cool 8-bit action title, blending racing with run-and-gun gameplay. I’d love to see a film adaptation of it on a VHS tape!
This is my own illustration based on Vice (NES), depicting an outpost sector of the city. The roads here are treacherous, and the racing is perilous. It’s highly recommended to equip vehicles in this sector with rocket launchers—small-caliber, short-range rockets are just the right fit for a car.
Racing competitions take place throughout this long, dangerous stretch of road, which is full of unexpected encounters. A racer in a red car—who hasn’t revealed his name—has clearly prepared his vehicle with great care. He drives a high-speed red machine, outfitted with rocket launchers on both the left and right sides. He’s banking on this setup to help him survive this treacherous road sector.
Deep into the night, the city lights begin to flicker on. The race is about to begin.
