Dear Reader:
Astral Chain devblog goes over the game's "Pixelizer" camera add-on
Did you know that you can get an add-on for the camera in Astral Chain? This add-on is called the Pixelizer, and it gives the game a very retro look! Learn more on the Pixelizer from Platinum's user interface programmer Akinori Tabuchi below!
Not too far into ASTRAL CHAIN, you’ll receive an in-game camera that lets you take snapshots throughout the Ark. It’s not just a fun toy, though! Some of the game’s side cases require photographic evidence, and taking pictures of people, places and enemies is how you fill out your Neuron database. Once you get the camera, you can take photos pretty much whenever and wherever you like. I recommend making an album of the lovely locations our environment artists have built!
Later on in the game, if you complete a certain case, you’ll get a very special add-on for the camera: the Pixelizer! This is a bit of my own handiwork, and I’d like to introduce it to you today.
