Description
Kap's 32 bit being brought down to 16 bit then 8 bit.The more damage Kap takes the lower the resolution in the game goes. This affects all the art and even the music.

I love the concept of this. The art on the 32 bit is pretty awesome (I'm a nerd for good sprite art)

Glad you're still working on it! Must take forever, though, to have to redo all sprites and music and backgrounds for each resolution.

I love the concept...it's brilliantly innovative yet deliciously retro.

....is this something that can actually be played???

Not yet!
From what I know, though, is that it's going to be a freeware game for the PC <3

You asked if Downgrade is a game that can actually be played, and I said not yet. Because it's still in development c:

oh no, I mean whats that thing you said it was going to be for earlier? I dont know what THAT is...

It's going to be for the computer.
Freeware means you don't have to pay for it.

That's a really fascinating concept! I enjoy the graphics as well as the idea of switching between bit count. <3<3

Another interesting idea would be if the game glitched out with damage, but I think it's been done in some way.
(there was something called Glitch Hiker I think)
Anyway, I like it very much, though when it comes to visuals, the resolution shouldn't be the only thing that gets worse; 8-bit games had much more limited color palettes and colors per sprite number.

ahh, such an amazing concept!
I can't even imagine how much work that's going to take to do, though

Really cool concept, I love it.
So the project is still on?
I started following all of you guys because I was interested in it, but then it just kinda.. cooled down or something.
Glad to hear you're still working on it

Yeah cooled down alot for a while there. We're coming back though.

That would be fun-playing game.And the Blue Screen Of Death after dying fits that.
And the title for this game fits so much also.

Reminds me of parappa with out the dope rhyming skollz for realz boiiiiii sorry got ghetto for a little bit.

That's a great idea. I had an idea from a game where the character became more detailed as they got stronger. GB style greyscale 2D all the way to hi-def 3D.

There's a game called REZ that has roughly the same concept, only from wireframe to full render.

Of course, now people like me will keep taking hits intentionally just to hear the lower res music...

Great concept! I imagine it makes for a really fun gameplay experience.

I'm prone to liking the 8 bit. I love indie games where the character is like 6 pixels. But all of these looks sweeeeeet.
The blue screen is a nice touch. TEXT-BASED ADVENTURE GO! *GO RIGHT, GO RIGHT, LOOK AROUND, CHECK POCKETS*

I'm like ... whos this guy with Gene's characters in thier icon??

That's awesome, but soooo time consuming I bet having to sprite BGs and stuff in all three bits :/

this is an interesting concept.
i can't wait to see the game.

Yeah, we were on Hiatus for quite a while but it looks like its being brought back.

this is one of the best ideas ever. I think I'd play always at low life just for the musics
