It was an opportunity that could transform his family’s future, but, JJ explained to his friend, President Donald Trump had frozen the money."

in reply to Sky.Bit • • •The image depicts a scene from a pixelated video game, likely from the late 1990s or early 2000s. The scene is set in a blue-tiled corridor with a diamond pattern, suggesting a stone or tiled floor. The corridor is flanked by structures on both sides, possibly buildings or platforms, with a lamp post visible on the right side.
In the center of the image, a character with blue hair and a blue outfit stands prominently, holding a round object, possibly a shield or a weapon. This character is facing the viewer. To the left, another character with black hair and a blue outfit is partially visible, walking away from the viewer. In the background, a small figure is seen walking away from the viewer, adding depth to the scene.
The overall color palette is dominated by shades of blue, with the characters' outfits providing contrast. The pixelated graphics and the style of the characters are indicative of the visual style of classic role-playing games from that era.
