Holtman notes that once a brick-and-mortar...

As you can see above, some experiences only really pop with 16 colors and four-channel sound. Solo dev Eric Ruth of PixelForce is working on an 8-bit "demake" of the original Left 4 Dead , promising all four campaigns, all five special infected, and two-player cooperative action à la Smash TV .
