Sub-struggle: CRT vs LCD? Those waterfalls used to look really different, and took advantage of the color bleed of old CRT monitors to mimic transparency
I won't struggle over this but I am deeply fond of the CRT bleed being leveraged to add a nice softness to some pixel art backgrounds.
But on the other hand I like crispy character sprites.
Ah fuck I'm gonna self criiiit.
Many older games were designed with CRTs in mind, and the colors and shapes don't look so great on modern monitors without some shaders applied.
