![Screenshot of PCSX2 running GioGio's Bizarre Adventure with the console output on the right. The game shows Giorno and Fugo, with Fugo displaying modded textures that give him his palette from the Anime adaptation. The console shows every file request from the game that the modloader has intercepted, with five lines referencing the new texture loading method.

![[Screenshots of various stages in the game]
Spectacular backgrounds in distinctive tones with modeling done in Softimage 3D and textures in Photoshop
For the background, more effort was spent on the visual image than on the modeling. The number of polygons used on one background was around 8,000 to 10,000, depending on the size and configuration of a particular stage. It was difficult to arrive at a style that would not ruin the original comics or the distinctive quality of each character. Because it was an original comic book, special attention was given to the expression of the hand- drawn quality of the lines and colors.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wb4pfqbn67vnivgwydjf6mj4/bafkreidvdoau6m6vvs45egm56wg4b6iifd25c6ad7x2i22poxz5kekhttu)
