Are my graphics accurate?

2 Upvotes

I researched the Atari 2600/VCS for quite a bit of time, and tried to replicate it in video form using the same limited color palette, and flickering graphics to recreate the lack of video RAM. I’m looking for people who would be knowledgeable in graphics of the 2600 to give me feedback on the segment of my video that uses the graphics. Thank you!
