Hi new followers!
Here is a project I hope we can get moving again (was put on ice a year ago), and finish off sometime in 2025.
It's a Super CDrom System game for PC Engine!
Vid below shows a test level with temp artwork.

Zohran genuinely loves the people of his city and wants the best for them. It’s astonishing how much we’ve all been starved of that by our leaders.
Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies.
Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.
Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

"Many GSFC employees are still concerned that the imminent removal and possible disposal of materials are in direct contradiction to the instructions in a Congressional Joint Exploratory Statement which directs NASA to preserve technical and scientific capabilities."
I am posting some photos of the NASA Goddard library taken yesterday. The photos were NOT taken by library employees - but rather by others at NASA Goddard . Word has it that trucks are arriving this weekend to begin removal of these boxes. More: nasawatch.com/trumpspace/n... #NASA

It's a Retro FPS with Metroid-vania lite elements & a rear view mirror.
Yes, you can shoot behind you!
My favorite player description of it is

fyi - this was the final version of the 1st level map for Black Tiger, reworked to PC Engine colour palettes, with some small tweaks here and there
(think of it as if a PCE port of the arcade had been done in the early 90s :D )

I think a big issue with modern game development is the disconnect between responsibility and accountability. The people in charge are theoretically responsible for the overall state of the game, but when a game does poorly a texture artist who did a great job is laid off.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
