I hope every writer who sees this writes LOADS the next few months. Like freetime opens up, no writers block, the ability to focus, etc etc you’re able to write loads & make lots of progress <3
i’m curious to know the ratio of writers to readers on ao3 so here’s a poll. when i say writer, i mean people who have published works on ao3, doesn’t matter if it’s once, or if it was ages ago, or if it’s a regular occurrence. when i say reader, i mean people who have never published a work on ao3. the reader vote still counts if you don’t have an account on ao3. if you’re a writer who is also an active reader, please still click on the “writer” option!
People say that old games dont look as good as they remember
Its because they legitimately dont.
The “fuzz” from CRT monitors was something that was definitely accounted for and taken advantage of back in the day when it came to video games! While this effect is noticeable in 3D games, it’s MUCH more visible when it comes to 2D sprites:
Just look how much more depth these simple sprites of Princess Peach and Bowser from Super Mario RPG seem to have when seen through the “dots” of a CRT TV screen!
I somehow did not know this!?!?!?
One of the clearest examples of this is using the effect for transparent waterfalls in the MegaDrive Sonic games
My absolutely favourite example of this is with Dracula’s eyes in Castlevania
