We already agreed that spriting everything over again would take why too long. And it looked blue and white in the original so… why not? Can’t you just add some effect that could make it look like that?

Well I guess you could do that. It would be really bland, though, just switching everything to blue and white. I was thinking more along the lines of having the distortion effect with the lens of the view (which might require switching to a 3-D view of the 2-D area, which wouldn’t effect much if done right), and having a script that analyzes enemies that have skeletons (which could just be a bool variable in every enemy) and draws a skeleton over them based on their shape (if that would work, that would be awesome), and then, of course, switching everything to blue and white.

I know, but it was just a sugestion open to anyone who wanted to improve my idea. You did. I know it would look bland but sure, if most people who are going to be playing this game want more than just a blue and white effect, then make it distorted.

  Well if you are going to do all that make sure the things further away from samus look darker in the game. And how will the Thermal Visor look.

Dude… we’re not talking about the thremal visor yet and it’s in 2D, so unless you mean things on the left and right of Samus then I don’t see any reason to make them darker.
