Back before ubiquitous online gaming, we used to get together with friends to enjoy multiplayer games in the same room! Bring back those glory days, get the popcorn and drinks in, and make a night of it with Evercade VS-R!

Turns out Saber Surfers is lacking challenge in the early game so we're reworking the game to favor groups of bullets and geometric patterns. #NESdev

Troisième jeu de la trilogie Jaleco récemment éditée par @brokestudio.bsky.social, Soldam est un puzzle game malin inédit sur NES. Bravo à toute l’équipe ainsi qu’à Florent Gorges pour avoir pris l’initiative de sortir ces jeux en physique. J’ai adoré faire les packaging pour ces jeux !

What an incredible time at Tokyo Game Show 2025!
I am so grateful to everyone who visited our Micro Mages booth in the Selected Indie 80 area, it was such a joy to present the PS5 and Famicom version ✨

Meeting so many passionate players and creators was a real highlight! ❤️

Ever heard of “homebrew” games?

Not hacks or cartmods, but real indie games for old consoles, made with passion.

This scene keeps growing, with new projects, devs, and players discovering that NES, GameBoy & more are still alive!

Here’s to keeping the flame alive☕️❤️
