sync-on-luma is obsessed with Akira-style diagonal freight lifts and has made a video about their appearance in computer games. No sponsors or anything, just an unnecessarily deep dive into his favourite examples.

    Having read the Akira comic books in my teenage years, I never knew that this is the origin of all those diagonal elevators in games. I just assumed them to be a thing in the real world and never questioned that up to now.

    Crazy that so many games adopted it. The comments on YouTube mentionmany more games than featured in the video.
