Starcraft from the 80's

Who needs awesome 3D graphics and physics engines and all that nonsense when you have 8 bit?

Tired of your units having color? Looking too real? or just simply jaded by modern graphics? Well, lets take a retreat back to the 1980's when 8-bit ruled the land. It was a simpler time, when an 8MHz CPU was mind-blowing, and when people struggled to comprehend how one could possibly use 10 megabytes of storage.

And if you can picture yourself in the 1980's, having just bought a brand new top of the line Tandy TRS-80 Model 2000 with 10MB (yes that's no mistake, 10 whole megabytes!!) and of course being the same die-hard Starcraft fan, the first thing would obviously be to get Starcraft installed on your hot rod. (duh!)

Well here's what it might have looked like, had Blizzard existed back then. Enjoy!



Is that a Hydralisk Den or the Canadian maple leaf?
