Luc Miron was the former webmaster of OpCode Games' newer site.

Luc lives in Montreal, Canada.

Luc is fantastic to draw graphics, and he do it for anyone who want to.
Luc's passion is closest to ColecoVision.

Luc had spent several years of good cooperation with Eduardo who was the founder of OpCode Games.
What Luc mostly learned during in time with Opcode Games was more related to the effort involved in making boxes, manuals and cartridges.

Daniel Bienvenu, another programmer learned Luc some little programming for ColecoVision.
And i think that this is Luc's goal that he will one day be able to program his own games.

Luc decided in 2009 that he would cooperate more broadly.
So he created a new publishing label.
Team Pixelboy is simply a ColecoVision publishing label.

But Luc are certainly not alone, it is a kind of team with all around him involved:

Daniel Bienvenu, Sohei Kobayashi, James De Carlo, Dale Crum, Oliver Puschatzki, Harvey deKleine, Guy Foster,
Dan Ogrodnick, Omar Cornut, Bruce Tomlin, Daniel Vik, Vincent van Dam, Studio Cutepet, Chris Coles, Scott Huggins, Fred Quimby, Albert Yarusso,
Jacob Hawk, and Dan Hower.

Ann there are also several beta testers: Eduardo Mello, Troy Whelan, Stephen Seehorn, Michael Di Salvo, Todd Scheele and Jean-François Dupuis.

On Team Pixelboy are all wishes and more, and Luc has already several games ready for release.

Some of his first graphical work was checkers.
But he has also made other graphical game designs.
Checkers was never programmed for our ColecoVision System, nor even Crystal Castle.
 

Chess Crystal Castle Remember The Flag

Games above never programmed.


Luc made also overlays for the ColecoVision, and even designs for a new joystick and a CV2.

 

CV2 Design Overlays Joystick Design


Luc has been very good at using Photoshop, here are 5 boxes selected among many, (maybe 30).
I think he is quite clever, and he has details with, -nice indeed.
Some of the boxes are produced by: Marc Oberhäuser in Germany.
