I love Radiant. I love pretty much every game Hexage puts out. I don't think it's actually pixel art, though -- the impression I got is that it's mostly pixel-style vector graphics, they do a lot of stuff that you couldn't do if you imposed a pixel grid on the art that's consistent with the art assets. Look at the blue guy on the left here, for instance: https://lh5.ggpht.com/EyOXQmFzhQ8ie9AnQcq7mcYOaY_uiWY6M8Zis2ZlE4IriEX5ixq_TaPnf0NfKVZoexM=h900 https://lh5.ggpht.com/EyOXQmFzhQ8ie9AnQcq7mcYOaY_uiWY6M8Zis2... Yeah, he looks like a pixel art figure, but look at how he's canted. Look at the bloom on everything. Which may reinforce the author's point -- that there's tradeoffs to doing perfect pixel-by-pixel placement on modern devices, where everyone uses screens of different size and aspect-ratio, and that different techniques are needed to give people the best experience, even if you want to have a retro aesthetic.
