   I'd forgotten how much I love(d) the original BBC HHGTTG tv series’ graphics: That neon glow, flashing text, choppy animation... just 👩🍳😘👌 – and I found this one particularly relatable! #hhgttg #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy #oldschool #graphics #bbctvscifi #bbctvseries

     @adavid Yes! Almost as if parts had been created on or designed for a vector-scan screen, like the Tempest or Asteroids arcade games. I love it.

     It very much reminds me of the EPYX games box art from the 80s, too.

     @amigalove We must bring back 80s neon, a.k.a. synthwave album art. We also need some kind of neon emoji!
