Fursuit of Jordan the chihuahua. The fursuit is being worn as an extended partial. Jordan is wearing a striped tee shirt and overalls. Jordan is inside the game room at Furry Weekend Atlanta, standing in front of a Ms. Pac-Man arcade machine, their hand paws resting on the controls, looking at the viewer, and one leg raised up in the air.

Screenshot from "Dynamite Duke". The protagonist, the titular Dynamite Duke, is seen. He is a muscular, Duke Nukem-like man, but he curiously has a transparent torso. This is presumably so the player can see through it and thus spot enemies in the game easier.

Image from "Dead Angle". The protagonist, an unnamed man, is seen. Or rather, his outline is seen- throughout the entire game, you only see a yellow outline of the man, and only of his upper body, at that.

"Dead Angle" is brought to you by the same developer behind "Dynamite Duke", who by this point had cornered the market on "games starring a semi-or-fully-transparent protagonist"

"retro videogames"? pffft. real Old Heads know it's all about Wall Games. get yourself a board with a billion lights, some heavy-ass RF boxes for controls, and a dang *wall* (preferably at Shakey's Pizza circa 1970), and you'll ascend to true retro electronic gaming nirvana
