Have PS1 triangular graphics made a retro resurgence yet? Because I'm so down for that.




It's a Lovecraftian thing. Abstraction of the horror itself (through primitive illustration) lets your own imagination fill in the blanks.


Silent Hill inspired, I guess


And Resident Evil, surely?


They need to be coupled with the same bespoke, precise controls and input handling though. There's a tightness to a lot of PS1 and N64 games that takes care to replicate. And Unity and friends don't exactly help you in that department.


r/ps1graphics is a small but active community.

There's also some people on YouTube doing PS1 and N64 style graphics.
