Happy Easter! In the interest of talking about Easter Eggs in video games, I thought I'd crack open one of the games industry's biggest easter egg secrets. I am of course talking about Jimping https://t.co/KzaZ70nWmG

Okay. So SOME of you might know who Jimp is. Jimp was an easter egg that started in Photoshop 1. If you clicked the eye icon 100 times, then a little image of an elf would appear where the eye icon should be. (side note, this is also where the software GIMP got it's name!) https://t.co/53xHnZugnI

You might not remember the 90s but everybody LOVED Jimp. They loved that little guy. So when Quake and Super Mario 64 were in development, the graphical fidelity allowed artists to "jimp" their favorite little guy, Jimp, into projects they worked on, in a practice called Jimping https://t.co/lyCvnwrXry

This trend continued for YEARS during Jimp's golden years. Here's a collection of some of my favourite examples of Jimping from the 90's. https://t.co/ZOIklUyS6m

Jimp might actually be the most famous character in all of video games that no one has ever heard of. If you're a dev, or if you've noticed this fun little guy in your video games before, I'd love to know how you've snuck Jimp into your work, or your favourite appearances of him! https://t.co/fkNOWolOB5
