This episode is about being a cog in the corporate machine. It sets the tone for a reoccurring theme in Pizza Bros, which is upper management wanting to do something but not giving the front line employees the tools to do their job properly.
Difficulties
Steve going from having an 8 bit pixel art hat to 8 bit pixel art hair was quite the difficult challenge to draw. Sometimes when your drawing, you are sitting there thinking “what does hair even look like!?” and how do I translate that into pixel art?
Comedy Writing and Pixel Art Coming Together
We loved the idea of opening the episode with a commercial. So we drew an old tube, pixel art T.V. to show the commercial on.
Most Fun to Create
The most fun to draw was the rodeo scene with the free hat. It was quite the challenge to imagine in pixel art, what somebody riding a bull would look like.
