Yes! We have a basic version ready but I still want to take more time to refine it. I'm hoping I can get to it this month!

I knew this part of the port would be hairy, and there's still some quirks to work out, but the SRAM saving/loading is working!

I'm feeling a momentum on SUPER SUNNY WORLD 🌞 that I haven't felt in a while!

It's exciting to work on again. I can't wait to share it with everyone!

I feel energized to start doing community stuff again too (like compos & the homebrew showcase). #nesdev #screenshotsaturday

Mega Man X5 PSX/PS1, hacked with MET's guitar arrangements, including improvement/addendum patch! This was a pain vs X4 due to how Capcom stored the tracks in the XA files, but I think it turned out pretty good!

Folks of Bluesky!

I am trying to find the source of this Advertisement for Duke Nukem 3D. The only leads I have is that it existed around 1996 (when the game was released) and that the company on the top right "FuncoLand".

I have no idea if this appeared in a Magazine or was a poster in a store.
