re-posting my starter pack full of retro computing people. You may have followed the people within a few days ago, but I kept adding to it so it's worth revisiting and adding the rest, including Macintosh Game Dev "royalty" John Calhoun, author of Glider, Glypha, Pararena

I improved my C coded midi player with cute, snappy status characters that fade in and out.

here's my capture of the sound track of the floppy version of Alien Legacy. You can navigate with timestamps in the description and find my favorites. Some are unforgettable and ear-wormy, some are just filler music tied to short events in-game.

I just got this big boxed MS-DOS game, floppy version of Alien Legacy, in very good condition.
I always had a soft spot for it, despite never completing it.
It's my understanding that you have to patch it or use the CD-version to having a fighting chance?
I always prefered the fm synth soundtrack

PC Gameport party reviewee by none other than Phil's computer lab! Very neat! I launched this project last year but revised it recently.
The Ultimate Gameport? PC Gameport Party
This video is sponsored by PCBWay https://www.pcbway.com/
PC Gameport Party lets you connect 2 joystick, a MIDI Out device (usually a MIDI Synth) and a MIDI In device (usually a MIDI keyboard) all at the same time!

I could do the same with MT-32 and General MIDI tracks, but I spent energy on this classic fm synth sweetness!

NEW VIDEO is up, about 2 programs that help me dig for new sounds. Uses MIDI in, drives a dual SID or a YMF262 (opl3) on my F256K2.
The randomizer function is really fun and can land on some sweet sounds!

I was asked to do a revision with through-hole only components for the PC Gameport Party, I obliged. Exact same functionality, and today I made extra crispy sure it would work by assembling a unit. All tests pass!
