KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out.

It's probably not a good sign that the thing I want to do after playing Lumines Arise is ... play the original game instead, is it?

Journey is critically flawed by interrupting the flow of gameplay to change scenes, and multiplayer already appears to be too quiet for random matchmaking.

I want to be excited for the stealth drop of Heretic+Hexen but once again they advertise a feature front and center that makes me literally unable to play the game.

I *cannot* play the idTech 1 games with an uncapped framerate. The resulting movement interpolation gives me nausea.

we used to be a country. a proper country.

all gooberman did is launder the GPL off of boom so that microsoft could stick it in their doom port and use community work as marketing bullet points without having any pesky obligations to the people who kept the game alive for thirty years

sorry what

> the clean room re-implementation is code that will be available for the community to use[...], on any system possible, and without any baggage. And for this, we cannot thank GooberMan enough.

thank goodness. at last boom is free of the baggage of "share your code too". unbelievable

Thanks to everyone who was able to try Petal Crash for Neo Geo’s first “loctest” at CEO this year. Shoutouts to DataFGC for giving us the chance to put this together. If you had fun and want to keep track of the conversion’s development, you can follow Rosenthal Castle here

If you happen to be at CEO this weekend, we managed to pull together a special treat: we’re demoing Petal Crash for Neo Geo over in the Jebaileyland Arcade. Come check it out, get some sets in and thanks to
DATAFGC
for hooking us up

I wish it was more common for homebrew developers on older systems to offer ROMs of their games for sale.

Merging changes and fixes from upstream over the past three years, plus a couple additional fixes.

I'm only just now getting the chance to bring this up on BlueSky, but:

We (myself and two others, under the group name "Rosenthal Castle") are porting Petal Crash to the Neo Geo:
