That's a pretty high bar. I watch TV on my bike but only when I'm on long flat trail paths

If you’re looking for an easily parsable library of tunes, qbasic “play” strings are findable online with hundreds of beeping compositions. I used them to play tunes on an at1200 with a piezo speaker soldered on. They are c-strings in the format “a10b2c10…” note/duration pairs. Compact and easy

Somehow the comic art reminds me of Strife that came out a year later (Rogue Entertainment)

I remember my dad being grumpy that it "didn't follow the books" with Ordos. I never liked the books, but I loved the games!

One of the downsides of Sunshine is that some of the coins are incredibly hard and "luck based". I love the setting and FLUDD. Probably my favorite Mario world/environment

That must've been a difficult prop to make; it looks amazing! I wonder how it was constructed; almost feels like they got the genuine article from a surplus or something

Yeah that doesn’t look great, I was hoping it would give it a bit of depth. Thanks for trying!

Reminds me of Marjolein Bastin, very cool

If possible, using a soft shadowed voxel style that is consistent across the UI would look amazing. (Consistent as in: same voxel/pixel size). I agree that “just” pixelized is very generic

I do a DN3D/SW/Blood playthrough each year and I'm down to play _another_ repack/remake/port, just to see what is different

I think it's spelled Emmeigh.

That tune still sounds a million times better than the PC speaker version I grew up with! :D Which is too bad because that game was a pretty big deal and ran fine(?) on my ancient 286 EGA.

Wow I thought I was the only Xenon2 fan out there!

I should check this one out finally - I just remember making fun of the weird name, as a dumb kid. Never ended up watching it.

I really enjoyed that game, but the clips of that mech boss fight reminded me that I never got past that and gave up. I'll try again when 1.0 hits! Game is great otherwise!
