Good palette cycled water (I think that's what's going on here?) is one of those true lost arts in game dev these days. Never not satisfying to see in this day and age; I really like the one they do with that smaller waterfall in the back. It's so small that you could miss it, especially on a CRT, but by god, they went to the trouble anyway. 😌
Yep, that's exactly what's going on here! Isn't that smaller one just the icing on the cake? Palette cycling's one of those techniques that I understand in principle, but every time I see it in motion I could swear it was witchcraft :D
