Was playing through a old classic Duke Nukem Gameboy Color (1999) and saw a Garg on the TV, has this been discovered in the Keen community before? Anyway, pretty cool

Why does this look like it uses vector graphics? It's an unusual look for gameboy color hardware.

It's [almost certainly] a screenshot from an emulator. Must've been using one of those graphics "enhancer" settings.
Anyway, weird find. I didn't know about this.

Nice find! I didn't play Duke gbc nearly enough to spot anything like that, maybe this is a good reason to give it another go.
If only it ran at sane speeds on my mp3 player...

A misconception: did you notice that although it's a TV, it also looks like a microwave oven

HA! Well, it's the answer to question I've always wanted to ask: what happens when you put a Garg in the microwave?

Right. TV's don't typically have a lot of buttons on the right. Knobs maybe.
