Been playing many of the games @retroninja.bsky.social developed since my (and probably yours) childhood like the strike games (Jungle and Desert Strike), Mutant League football, and more and just picked up his latest game on the Atari VCS!

Casual gameplay of #VectaGuardZero on the #AtariVCS
First thoughts: This cave flyer from @retroninja.bsky.social is a must buy on the VCS! Love the music, Tron-like graphics and challenge.

We found solidarity and friendship in action game development, as well as movies. His attitude and energy will surely be missed, while his legacy lives on.

This is TOO TRUE.
I ABSOLUTELY HATE games that stop the game with a giant pop-up and require you to push a button to continue.
But it seems that today you HAVE TO do that, because nobody will read anything if you don't.

I love #Tron, but I know what Tron is and what it isn't. The problem is most people aren't old enough to have been through this before and it's vogue to hate EVERYTHING these days, especially Disney.
Tron is Tron and I'm here for it.
