Why simple graphics (pixel-art, minimalism) can be stronger than flashy visuals in games
I still remember when I first tried out a small indie roguelike on my phone. Looked super basic, pixel blocks everywhere, nothing close to AAA. But man, I got so hooked I ended up playing all night, while my big-budget “ultra-realistic” shooter just sat untouched. The minimal look somehow made me focus more on the mechanics, and I wasn’t distracted by constant particles and glowing effects. Didn’t expect simple graphics to grab me that hard.
