I want to add a retro world to my games, but I need a reason for it to be retro. - Videogamejunkie443 - 06-29-2023

I want to add a world based on games for 8-bit consoles, but I want the world to have a reason as to why it looks the way it does, something that I can't think of. If anyone could give me ideas, that would be great.

Time machine! Or maybe one of the villains stole all the world's modern computers.

I've always loved the PICO-8 in Celeste. Making it an in-universe secret was really neat, with a little clever thinking I'm sure you could find a way to tie in a similar concept to story progression.

An alien planet maybe? It'd be something that looks strange, and yet familiar.
