For reasons I can't quite put my finger on, Obra Dinn's gameplay fits extremely well with this look. Pope definitely seems to have achieved this, and players can even switch between different types of one-bit rendering - whether that's for a Macintosh monitor, IBM, or Commodore 1084. I plan to push it grittier and less cartoon-like than those old games the hard part will be keeping everything legible without it becoming an unreadable mess of dithered pixels.' I'd like to capture the detailed black & white look of old Mac games in a realtime 1st person game.

(I know, right?) Pope first showed a demo for Obra Dinn all the way back in 2014, but yesterday released a new version from GDC available to download from his site for Mac and Windows - and it's definitely worth your time. His next game - Return of the Obra Dinn - looks just as bracingly inventive, with players tasked with puzzling out the fate of a merchant ship's crew in 1808, using a time-traveling pocket watch. Game developer Lucas Pope is best known for Papers, Please, a ' dystopian document thriller' that puts players in the role of a immigration inspector for a crumbling Soviet republic.
