so in other words: we could have much more vibrant images on our screens, but because the manufacturers hold on to relics from the past, they limit the screens?

0:33 i almost got a heart attack after reading it😨

I GOT SIX BECAUSE I USED 30X ZOOM TO SEE THE PIXELS

idk

As a person with a terrible monitor I see this as a W

Sub-pixel rendering was often used for rendering text such as with Microsoft ClearType. Though, I'm not sure if it's as relevant now that High DPI displays are common. It can also look bad on some monitors as there's generally no way for the software to detect the sub pixel arrangement of the display.

Wow you actually uploaded something 10 days ago! I've been playing your javascript snake game for years in school. Decided to randomly check it out again, all these years later and found the link to your RUclips! I want you to know you're a legend for me and my friends in school for making that game and entertaining us all those years ago!

1:25 wth my iPad has that RGB (it's very visible if you use oil on iPads)

That's crazy!! That regular sized javascript snake game you showed was insanely popular at my high school. It was one of only games that wasn't blocked by the our school site blocker.

You said it would dissapear but it just became a scary smiley face :(

Life hack: No microscope? Just put a tiny water drop on ur screen and boom! Instant magnification. Try it and thank me later

You can still see a little blur, but it’s close.

what microscope did u use

þis is kinda cool

Holy 1:54 man I used to play the hell out of that in school like 3-5 years ago until it was taken off of MIT’s website

Super cool project!

You can tell that the iphone is a oled

i scored like 8 points without any kind of lens

i might sound dumb, but i got jumpscared by the thumbnail when i clicked the video. i saw a creepy face of someone. am i high or smtn?

I tried the game itworked well

I am going to ask the most predictable question ever: Subpixel Doom, can it happen or are subpixels too small for Doom?

Um.. Its 2025..

Dude u made the best explanation there is!

I checked the page and for some reason I figured zooming in would do the trick. I don't know why I thought it would do the trick but it quite didn't.

love it! after going to 10fps on my cheap usb microscope to get the latency down i was able to play :) Now i also know my monitor's subpixel layout!

You can actually see them with the naked eye, at least when it's green.

They look like visual migraines i hate it

my eye hurts

fun!

0:31 AHH

i played it without the microscope and my highscore was only 4

Dang it, after a couple of tries length 7 without a microscope. Now my eyes hurt...

You should be able to zoom out the SVG or canvas or image you're using programmatically. Eg. if your device pixel ratio is 2.0, you can have a canvas with 100x100 pixels, and set the width and height in CSS to 50 CSS pixels. Use a fractional number of CSS pixels as needed. This works even on phones.

I still see it 0:19

Dude!! It took me until you mentioned the original snake game to realize I used to play your snake game all the time 10 years ago in high school. Had a “wait….no WAY this is the patorjk snake guy” moment😂 I even made my own snake game as one of my first coding projects and used the style of yours as inspiration. This is the coolest thing ever seeing this pop up on my RUclips, cheers man 🫶

wow imagine rate limiting it

the second, fourth, last, and second to last ones work really well, but with most of the ones that had colored imagery, the difference in resolution made it possible (even if just barely) to still make out the hidden image, since the moving part tended to have lower res

0:01 i paused and the smile was still there, scammed yet again 😔

wow vary cool!

huh what’s this “boo!” AHHHHHHHH

I still can see it. Am I ok?

Wow, you're patorjk? Small world...

You can play using your phone's 100x Zoom Mode

0:31 we can again see it...:/

set it to 2x speed you can see the images better

If you pause and unpause really quickly you can still see it

The image that is being shown is a bit blurry, so it is possible to see after pausing the video

Would be easy on some of my CRTs, I like the subpixel layout on my early 2000s 13" RCA and my Panasonic PVM. Totally different, both beautiful. I took a lovely sub pixel image of Alucard while replaying SOTN on PSX. Looked so good, love that thing.
