    Usually graphics are a one-way street, you can run all the game logic headless and then punt data over to graphics and forget it since the rendering doesn’t affect gameplay

    I think that’s how the PS4 version of Shadow of the Colossus worked, they recompiled the PS2 code and just replaced the graphics layer with a newer graphics engine

      That’s so impressive ! I wish I had more insight to this, I’m not a graphic dev nor a game Dev but those things are super interesting
