Cool Videos: Someone makes The Last Jedi trailer with an old Apple computer

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

I love adventure games, including the old-school ones like the original SPACE QUEST. One thing I was always fascinated by were the cut-scenes, especially understanding the limitations of the technology at the time. Sure, they may not be as polished as cutscenes now, but they definitely had their own charm for sure.

Anyway, Indonesian illustrator Wahyu Ichwandardi had remade THE LAST JEDI trailer using only an Apple llc from 1984 – mimicking the look of those old games. Over the course of three weeks, he used 48 floppy disks, each with 140KB of memory, and produced 288 image files totaling a whopping 6MB in size. Here’s the final product:
