Beyond the Crystalline Lattice of the Universe - A Conversation with the Observers

And this is my drawing based on Lufia (SNES). The crystal lattice of the universe has opened slightly. And we find ourselves behind this lattice of ice crystal. Inside the crystal is the world we live in. And beyond the crystal are the Observers of the worlds. They are also its creators.

In the Ice Cave

And this is my drawing based on Final Fantasy 4 (SNES). A magic spell, like a magic carpet, transports you to an ice cave. It's bright here. Because the ice glows and reflects a lot of light. It's magic ice. Absolutely. You land on your feet. And look around! Everything around is made of ice. A real ice cave!

@__hetz @vantablack it really depends greatly on the specific Game...

Like @fuchsiii has a lot of issues with weird games that are i.e. #32bit but use a #16bit #Installer, require legacy versions of #DirectX / #Direct3D if not #DirectDraw or have other issues.

  • For the most part, #GameScope is broken so many 1990s games without much fans are constantly getting broken much to her frustration.

Obviously this doesn't apply to newer mainstream titles like #Crysis where one just chooses an older version of #Proton / #DXVK and can just game fine.

Obviously #Valve ain't saints but even if I was a #Steam-absent #Developer or #Publisher I'd at least not go out of my way to cockblock people from gaming on it, when it's hardware is roughly on-par with the #Switch2 and unlike #Nintendo's shitbox it isn't a closed-off platform.

  • It's just that sadly none of the big publishers seem to care - yet.

And with the expected retail price of the #SteamMachine closer to €1k than €500, it'll be kinda hard for most consumers to justify buying in and thus developers to do more than the bare essentials.

So yeah, #LinuxGaming has issues - I'm not gonna deny that - but certainly these are certainly not due to Valve, but rather:

The SNES version of Street Fighter Alpha 2 gets heaps of praise. Does it deserve it? Check out my comparison of the arcade and SNES versions of the game! And times are tough folks, please repost, spread the word!

Check out my new project, Mega Synthesis. Available via #Bandcamp (playmegagaming.bandcamp.com/al) or any streaming platform (playmegagaming.com)

Mega Synthesis is an experimentation in classic #16bit sound using Sonicware's Liven Mega Synthesis synth/groovebox, which is an accurate recreation of the soundchips that provided the sounds for legendary #SegaGenesis soundtracks. Messing around and learning the synth and running it through additional processing with the SP-404 mkii and Reaper, I came up with these five tracks that bring the the retro video game sound into a modern context over some banging drums. If nothing else, I think it is an interesting listen, so check it out #megadrive #megasynthesis #sonicware #beats #music #instrumental #synth #dawless

Beyond Zero Tolerance: постигая тайну невышедшего сиквела

Первой игровой консолью моего детства, как и у многих моих сверстников, была “Денди”. Несмотря на то, что я был слишком мал, тем не менее запомнил, как с энтузиазмом старался победить противников в файтинге Yie Ar Kung‑Fu или педантично собирал, как мы их называли, “кучки” в игре Lode Runner, даже и не подозревая, что на самом деле это был золотой песок. Но в более осознанном возрасте на смену 8 битной консоли ко мне пришла Sega Mega Drive. Конечно, же на тот момент оригинальных 16‑битных консолей практически ни у кого не было, но мы об этом даже и не догадывались – для нас эти приставки были самыми что ни на есть официальными.

One of my favorite Commodore Amiga tunes is the heroic-style soundtrack of the 1988 Ikari Warriors game conversion.

The tune was arranged by Jason C. Brooke, derived from the original arcade composition by Yoko Osaka.

Put a cat on a rocket and have an amazing 1-button homebrew? It is possible, thanks to Dieter von Laser.
Great artworks and a banging soundtrack make this game amazing.

Never knew 16-bit CP/M existed. My Commodore 128 supported 8-bit CP/M, but I barely touched it, as I was mostly distracted by Commodore 64 games. 😁
