* Ruth has produced further demakes, although they are not part of the ''Pixel Force'' series. One is ''[[Team Fortress Arcade]]'': ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' as a side-scrolling, arcade-style [[Beat'Em Up]].
* Ruth's most recent game is ''[[Serious Sam]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922183326/http://www.desura.com/games/serious-sam-the-greek-encounter The Greek Encounter]'', an overhead shooter in the signature 8-bit style. It's part of Croteam and Devolver Digital's initative that has produced several indie games based on the franchise.
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130910162954/http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Rockman_7_Famicom Rockman 7FC]'' and ''[http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Rockman_8_Famicom Rockman 8FC]'', which de-make the only two non-8Bit entries of the classic [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] series. Interestingly, 7FC predates Capcom's own ''[[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] 9'', while 8FC was released between ''9'' and ''10''.
* Capcom also produced ''[[Dark Void]] Zero''. While not technically the same game but a prequel, it brings the action and flight mechanics in pixelated 2D. Many people found it more interesting than the main game.
* The infamous ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' for the NES. Visually, it doesn't even resemble an 8-bit rendition of the original, but at least it manages to convey the story of the original.
* The Chinese ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'' NES bootleg, even more infamous because it's an incomplete game (it ends after the fight with Magus).
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20131030102802/http://cymonsgames.com/asciiportal/ ASCIIpOrtal]''.
* ''[[Halo]]'' has had a demake as early as 2004: ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130129022425/http://dobgames.ownbb.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4 Halo Zero]''.
* ''Halo 2600'', available both as [http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/166916-halo-for-the-2600-released-at-cge-download-the-game-here/ a rom] and [http://www.codemystics.com/halo2600/ in Flash.] A few cartridges have also been produced. Ironically, it's made by Ed Fries, a former Microsoft employee who was instrumental in bringing Bungie to Microsoft in the early 2000s.
Line 46:
* ''[http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/55110-minecraft-de-make-powerpoint-made-my-n-craft-4600-dls/ My-N-Craft]'', a ''Minecraft'' demake made with... Microsoft Powerpoint?!
* Among the countless hacks of the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[http://www.patater.com/minimal-mario Minimal Mario]'' makes the graphics as '''really''' minimalistic.
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120905084817/http://amon26.site11.com/1_5_Games.html MooD]'', an arena shooter. The game it refers to is [[Sdrawkcab Name|quite obvious]].
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130929014745/https://mojang.com/notch/j4k/l4kd/ Left 4K Dead]'', another mini-demake by [[Minecraft|Notch]].
* ''[http://flipskip.com/ThievingRaccoon.swf Thieving Racoon]{{Dead link}}'': ''[[Sly Cooper]]'' as a [[Game and Watch]].
Line 97:
* ''[[STALKER|S.T.A.L.K.E.R.]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130703023216/http://aroojiobrow.blogspot.com/ Shades of the Nuclear Plant Explosion]''.
* [http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_2_-_The_Hybridization_Project Sonic 2: The Hybridization Project], a romhack of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]] 2'' that ports the graphics and levels of the Master System version on the Genesis.
* [[Minecraft|Notch]] attempted a Java demake of ''[[The Lost Vikings]]'', but it didn't go past [https://web.archive.org/web/20200331183217/http://www.java-gaming.org/index.php?topic=22335.0 the early stages.]
* ''[http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=87696 Heartlight 64]'', demake of a DOS ''[[Boulder Dash]]'' clone from the early 1990s.
* ''[[Uncharted]] [http://www.moddb.com/games/uncharted-demake Demake]'', made with the intention of looking like it was released on the Game Boy Color. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oliLTUNbrjc Some test footage here.]
* ''[[Resident Evil]]'' [https://web.archive.org/web/20170518174731/http://www.the-horror.com/forums/showthread.php?9088-Resident-Evil-Demake-Project-(Like-Nes) as a 8 bit RPG] (made with RPG Maker), seemingly taking the graphics from the NES bootleg demake.
* ''[[Skyrim]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdA8bSsE9eo for TI-84 calculators], although given the limits of the hardware, it hasn't really have much to do with the original.
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120120075207/http://www.moddb.com/games/haloowaw Out With A Whimper]'', yet another ''[[Halo]]'' with 2D graphics (which look excellent so far).
