If Star Wars: The PolandLast Jediwere a retro video game, we imagine it'd look a lot like this.
Indonesian illustrator Wahyu Ichwandardi made it his mission to remake the upcoming Star Warstrailer using only an Apple llc from 1984.
SEE ALSO: Major 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' spoiler may have found its way into this comicIchwandardi, who is based in New York, painstakingly drew his tribute on a KoalaPad from the '80s, using a 1984 bitmap paint program, Dazzle Draw.
In the '80s, the setup was deemed the "most complete computer graphics system," but it's clear from his process how far we've come.
For instance, in order to draw in layers for the animation, the illustrator had to draw each layer by hand, using plastic sheets held over the monitor, to trace each frame from the trailer, for reference.
Just take a look at how he does it:

Over the course of three weeks, he used 48 floppy disks (remember those?), each with 140KB of memory, and produced 288 image files which totalled a whopping 6MB in size.
Here's how the final trailer looks:

Its pretty darn close to the original, if you ask us.
We'll never be able to watch the original trailer the same way again. Long live green monochrome!
