Ball and Chain Sigma

A sprite edit of Sigma's head from Mega Man X added over pixelart of a grey knight with a horned helmet swinging a spiked morning star on a linked chain. Back in the day I thought this miniboss was the coolest thing ever, but he was just a basic enemy that appeared one time.

Recently I released #Barbarians for #msdos. This release was for the #DOSember Game Jam, a 3-month game jam for MS-DOS preceding the month-long DOSember streaming event for 2025. cyningstan.itch.io/barbarians-dos #gamedev
A screenshot from the recently released Barbarians for MS-DOS. It uses a similar layout to the versions ZX Spectrum and some Psion pocket computers. A central main map is surrounded by various information panels: on the left, information about the empire as a whole, on the right, information about the last referenced map square, and underneath, the game's name and a one-line prompt and menu display.

This was my white whale for a long time, but the sourced audio sample during Xenogears' "Blazing Knights" boss fight track was taken from Christian Brando's manslaughter trial in 1990!

Dracula and Richter in the intro of Symphony of the Night. Dracula's dialogue reads "Grok, do an epic vulgar roast of this miserable little pile of secrets".

Added code for a run button :) Hold B to run. It moves the menu from B to Start, but B still cancels.

Okay here goes for #BirdOfTheDay. These fellas got tired of #paddling and decided to hijack a boat to get things going a little faster. Okay, okay ... I accept disqualification ... but this is one of my favourite photos. Don't normally photograph birds. Still giggle at this one.
A squadron of Pelicans on a green wooden boat, moored on a calm lake. The captain is at the bow, and the first mate is at the stern, ready to start the engine.
