Wolfenstein has been the subject of its fair share of remakes, demakes and fanmade tributes, yet few rank as high on the 'wtf?' scale as this new pixel-high 1-D interpretation. The craziest part? It's actually kind of fun.

Created by Wonder-Tonic, Wolfenstein 1-D prides itself as being the %26ldquo;the game that changed everything, converted to a one-pixel line.%26rdquo;

Stepping into William %26ldquo;B.J.%26rdquo; Blazkowicz's pixel-high boots, storming pixel-high rooms and picking off pixel-high Nazis does have its charms, even if half of the fun comes from the action going on in your head. You can try it out here.

  • Wolfenstein fans better "get psyched," because a tabletop RPG is on the way
  • Doom might never have happened if id Software's followed the easy money its 2D platformers were making
  • Noah and the Poohloudies Solo dev ports "Super Mario 64 meets Pokemon" game to PS1, N64, Dreamcast, and more all at once

1-D gaming might not require special glasses or expensive TVs to enjoy, but it does require good eyesight and a hefty degree of imagination. Maybe the DLC will include a second layer?
