Zelda II ZX Spectrum

Description

A mockup of what Zelda II would have looked like if it had been ported to the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. My god, that console was hideous.

The restrictions here are that you have a very limited palette, and you can only display 2 colors in every 8x8 space. The result is something called "aspect clash" where there are sharply defined borders where one color ends and another begins. As you can tell, I'm not very fond of the look, but it was an interesting experiment nevertheless.

I think it's beautiful. Color restrictions can produce very creative results. I'm not even from the UK and I love the look of the computer and its graphics.
