Pixel Boost is our weekly series devoted to the artistry of games, and the techniques required to run them at high resolutions.

The Secret of Monkey Island is one of the best adventure games of all time. And we love the original's pixel graphics, which were charming and full of character and wonderfully expressive back in 1990. That pixel art is still great today. But we also love the 2009 Special Edition's makeover, which trades blocky pixels for a more painterly, colorful look. It's vibrant and atmospheric. And it comes with another bonus: being able to run the game at very, very high resolutions.

Using Durante's GeDoSaTo, we were able to downsample The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition from 8K to a very sharp 1440p. Downsampling isn't effective for 2D games the way it is for 3D, because there isn't 3D geometry to render at higher resolutions. The original art is only so high-res. Downsampled, Monkey Island's backgrounds still make for great wallpapers.

Wes has been covering games and hardware for more than 10 years, first at tech sites like The Wirecutter and Tested before joining the PC Gamer team in 2014. Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.

When he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
