I had such a good time with all 3. I've seen people knock Sega Touring Car for the controls but its also fun once you get used to it, and has an insane soundtrack.

On Feature Creep Friday I added a new secondary laser weapon. It seems to be equally overpowered and annoying to use in most situations, which seems like a good combination. #mastersystem #homebrew

Taking a rest from stage building to work on some small cosmetic improvements. Added some fast background stars to the entry and to some boss fights. #mastersystem #homebrew

My entry for the SMS Power competition is complete. It will be in Razing Core as some kind of extra and available once the competition finishes.
It's only a graphical demo but I'll provide a short rundown of my weird process to make it afterward. #mastersystem #homebrew

For the SMS Power coding competition I'm making a special screen for Razing Core that is accessible in the game and as a separate ROM for the competition.
The deadline is March 27th and I encourage you to enter! You can also make a hack or a music entry. #homebrew #mastersystem

For sure! Even when you have no limits it helps to impose them on yourself.

The flip side is sometimes finding myself trying to optimise something that already works well. It was fun though, so I guess there was some point?

Whenever I used an engine it felt like I was being less thoughtful about the design. I was dropping in an effect or mechanic without taking the time to understand why it should be in my game.
If you have to implement it yourself you think about it more, and also go off on interesting tangents.
