Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

What if EE used 24x24 pixel graphics?

Hey, I was messing around in gimp and ended up making something interesting.

I've always felt that everything's a little small in EE, especially when compared to other games. So here's an example of what it might look like with slightly larger graphics:

I know it's a pretty significant change, but I thought it would be an interesting point to discuss. Larger graphics would improve visibility on larger size or higher pixel density displays. 24px is also small enough to retain the ability to make detailed levels and art. I can make some more demos if you'd want to see them.

So, let me know what you think of this idea!

The problem doesn't reside in the image quality. It resides in physics. Should still be possible to implement though.

Can't we just get on with the vector graphics plan?


10 years and still awkward. Keep it up, baby!

That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Why change things that don't need to be changed? EE block units are purposely "small" so more can fit on screen

If anything, I would have the game increase the size to 200% for bigger monitors/fullscreen so it's more visible

Yes. Please. As I'm aging things are harder to see and my eyes hurt.
