I then took a second look at Mooselutions and figured something must be wrong because it wasn't quite as crisp. (For those of you who are super nerdy and technical, Mooselutions uses a pixel art scaling shader that does bilinear interpolation to blend ever so slightly, but only at texel boundaries. Inside of a texel, the shader samples the texel color, resulting in non-blurry pixel art scaling at non-integer multiples of the texture. It is very convenient because it means I don't have to letterbox the game and can arbitrarily scale textures so long as I preserve the aspect ratio.) Anyw...
