Was thinking that games similar to Obra Dinn would be awesome on this device, but also realize that games of that caliber are a rare thing indeed.

In the long run I'd think that the lack of colors is a deal breaker, so I think you're right this is very much a niche type of product.

Uh... You'll be happy then. Lucas Pope is at work on a game for this called Mars After Midnight.
I don't think Mars After Midnight is going to be "like" Obra Dinn. Pope's said himself he wants to work on something much smaller in scope, and given the whimsy of what he has so far I don't see it growing into something like Obra Dinn.

As somebody who wants no sequel more than Obra Dinn 2, I don't think this is it. I always look forward to seeing Pope's work, though, and I hope he's working on something that he enjoys.
