Remember that "Paint by Pixel" project that iam8bit.com was working on with the help of attendees at GDC this year? As promised a time-lapse video of the entire project has been released, and it's quite awesome to behold. At one point in the video an 8-bit Mario shows up, but is promptly removed and changed to something else. Was this intentional, or did somebody just get a little sticky-happy with the pixels? See for yourself and check out the video after the break.
