Field notes
The making-of says there is no high-resolution public scan of the playfield and estimates that the best available photo has about 30 pixels per inch. The project describes redrawing the art tile by tile in its original screen-print style for a 400-pixel-per-inch master, with lines placed within a hundredth of an inch of their original positions. The creator also says the machine was a frequent after-school game during high school.
