It’s image generation just like the prototypes that converted your drawings into “realistic” image are. It’s clearly completely redrawing the frame into a new one using the output of the game as a basis.

It’s not done 60+ times per second on phones. And I’m not even sure all this processing is done locally in the first place on Instagram and such.

Oh yeah I’m sure there is still a market for it. I was talking about me personally.

I also loved the simplicity of the first one and the sequel looks like it’s going in the same direction with a bit of novelty added on top. I’m wondering if it will still be as enjoyable now that we had some more in-depth games on the same theme like surviving mars (especially the green planet extension which I really liked)
