What's got two thumbs and thought it was a bright idea to make a vector skeleton animation tool in #TIC80?

Why is it called a dental check-up and not a cavity search

What if videogames were developed so that playing on the lowest graphical settings was the base experience and anything higher than that was just a nice bonus? Because, holy shit, too many games have text or even visuals in general become hard to parse with lower settings
