Hi to my new followers!
I'm Rebusmind and I'm a gamedev working mostly on new Game Boy (Color) games these days.
I've released a fast-paced platformer called Dango Dash in 2023, which also got a physical release.

It has been 31 years since Phantasy Star IV was released! One of the few RPGs released for the Sega Genesis, it holds up as one of the best of the era with its comic panel cutscenes, macro combo system, great monster design, and blend of fantasy and sci-fi elements.

Soul Blazer was out 34 years ago (1992)!⚔️ The first of Quintet's "Heaven & Earth" trilogy, seeing you restore a barren world by fighting demons and freeing the souls of its inhabitants. The game found poignant ways to talk about life and death.

The new M! Games issue is in stores! I once again made some fun contributions. I talked to Mike Tucker from @bitmapbureau.com about the amazing Terminator 2D and also took a look at older T2-adaptations some of which are quite bad, some are suprisingly good - but the new one is the best by far!

This is really slick but I can also really recommend the game in general, real cosy one but also touches on some interesting broader political and social topics too including discrimination, border politics and balkanised countries
Anybody here remember when we ported part of our game to SNES?

This was a really fun experiment, real Famicom Detective Club Part 2 vibes. Maybe someday we can do the whole thing, I'd love to remix the OST for it. #gamedev #indiegamedev

To those confused when I'm talking about "Context Actions", they're what overwrite item inputs under certain circumstances. In this picture, "Swimming" and "Diving" are considered context actions, so they are highlighted differently.

Der Lobbyverein "Republik 21" arbeitet für ein Ende der Brandmauer. Nun soll er eine halbe Million Euro Steuergelder pro Jahr erhalten.

Wir haben rechtlich prüfen lassen, ob diese Förderung überhaupt zulässig ist. Ergebnis: Nein.

Ich finde: Finanzminister Klingbeil darf die Gelder nicht freigeben.
(S+) Republik21: Diese rechte Denkfabrik bekommt Steuergelder – jetzt gibt es juristische Bedenken
Kritiker werfen der Denkfabrik Republik21 vor, die Öffnung der Union zur AfD zu betreiben. Dennoch wird der Verein mit Staatsgeld gefördert. Nun stellt ein neues Gutachten das infrage.

This month has been horrible, my laptop died, I had to spend tons of money on new equipment, no new commissions and rent is late again. If you'd like and are able to help, I'm saving for a new laptop and to pay bills since money is almost over.

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.
