Apple's App Store art is fucking horrendous | Flat art / Alegria / Corporate Memphis - click for feet

Heard Cornette shilling this stuff and I guess breakfast cereal isn't safe from the bland offensively inoffensive Alegria homunculi of fat designs.

Also problematic seeing as how they got the, while pastel blue, black chick(?) on the front of the cocoa flavored cereal. Also the dog looking pretty retarded with its flounder eyes.

the flat single-matte-color look combined with the globohomo art makes makes this cereal look like it is your daily issue people's worker party ration. Just remove the person & dog of flat and replace it with a matte symbol like a star or hammer.

Apple just updated watchOS and there's some black history month watch face to diversify your watch now.

Do these globohomo artists not see that their art style is legitimately horrifying? A common theme seems to be people missing eyeballs or having heads hideously undersized for their bodies.

Are there any wipepo on the App Store at all anymore?

As a former package design enthusiast, that has to be the ugliest package design I've ever seen. Not just the overall design, the hideous artwork, but the color selection and balance is fucked. Everything about it is wrong for packaging. Is that really in production?! What low standards, what incompetency!

We are already in hell.

"childlike cereal for adults"
Oh, this is subhuman soyfeed. Never mind, they deserve this. Eat up, Rick & Morty fans! Mow down, Netflix cartoon watchers!

this product in general looks like it was specifically engineered by a committee to appeal to TRENDY, HEALTH-CONSCIOUS MILLENNIALS who hate ADULTING and BIG CEREAL and DIABEETUS so much that they're willing to shell out 40 fucking dollars a box for "grown-up" cereal, so the shitty humans of flat box isn't really a surprise here

So you're mad because the art for a soulless corporation's app store doesn't please your eyes?

I hate this way of thinking, as if it's a forgone conclusion that a corporation has to be this milk-toast, placid, reflection on consumer culture.

Corporations used to create both good (or at least not shitty) art while also pushing their products. It's not unheard of and any perspective not of the past 10 years could find plenty of examples.

While I agree, I also have realized working in the art world that the average person doesn't care or can tell what sucks.

The past year I started intentionally doing a terrible job with some low level quick commissions that I figured I could fuck with without my rep being hurt and my clients still ate that shit up.

Like most edgy teenagers that thought they knew all the answers, I read The Fountainhead.

One thing I still remember from that novel is a quote which was something like:

"I give them the mediocre, and they love me for it. Present man with something truly remarkable, and it reflects to them their lack of ability, and they'll hate you for it. Might as well show them a mountain they'll never climb. But, give them something they themselves could achieve, and they'll love you forever."

Bad news, those are headphones...

HE. HAS. NO. EYES.

Before this one there was a blob person of some little glasses kid or something in snow or stars or some shit. I thought that one was weird and bad enough with how weirdly unfitting and hard to see it was but they've somehow gotten shittier at their blob people, seemingly intentionally so and it's really starting to get to me.
