What do you all think of the cubes/voxels that programmed matter breaks up into, on the Legacy and Uprising grid?


I’ve been thinking about how they can’t really be singular voxels/pixels because the resolution of programs before they get derezzed is much higher than that?


Unless “Deresolution” also involves… becoming lower resolution? Oh god


In my quest to make it all make sense…

(pointless puzzle-solving for my own pattern-recognition-program enrichment, nothing to do with actual authorial intent, but even so)

…I also gotta consider the contrast to Encom


… where there are a variety of ways to derezz but they all eventually break you up into just tiny lil specks of light… implying that your resolution before and after death is about the same in that system


LMAO… Oh Flynn.

… the Encom system talked about deresolution as de-resolving, literally just coming apart from how your energy had been resolved into a shape


But Flynn heard “deresolution” and decided it meant “reduce their resolution until they quit functioning and break up into big ass voxels”
