   The product hunt ad is breaking the immersion for me. I know that most cities have ads but still, I prefer ad free pixel art.

   It’s also not realistic, in one landscape the billboard is taller than a 9 story building.

      Occasionally it switches from product hunt to a "Your Ad Here" ad that links to a popup with the following (slop) text:

      > Put your café, shop, studio or brand on the billboard in Paris: drawn by hand in the same pixel-art style, and glowing in the scene while people study, work and unwind to the music.

      It's clear this is a money-making endeavor, not something created out of passion or goodness of heart. And not art.

         poor quality pixel art with no sense of scale ... but most importantly, no human touch
