The harsh restrictions sure spur creativity! On the other hand, is the SNES "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" style everyone's favourite pixel art style, or is it just me? Without tricks it did 256 colours of of 4096 in Mode 7. You can't do art that's as pretty with four colours. Is it a restriction that's too harsh or are we ok with games that just aren't very pretty?
