The time DOOMGUY found Commander Keen in Castle Wolfenstein Doom II: Hell on Earth - MAP32: Grosse on Nightmare difficulty, where id Software’s worlds collide. Background music: remixed Wolfenstein 3D classics by @hqremakes.bsky.social #Doom2 #CommanderKeen #Wolfenstein3D #RetroGaming #EasterEggs

One of the earliest game soundtracks ever, Ultima III: Exodus by @richardgarriott.bsky.social is a cornerstone of retro gaming history. This beautiful high-quality recreation by @hqremakes.bsky.social perfectly captures the timeless spirit of Kenneth W. Arnold’s original compositions. #RPG #VGM

A dreamy blend of Irish folk and Celtic atmosphere. From one of the most beautiful video game soundtracks of the 2000s: the music of Braid by Jami Sieber, Shira Kammen, and Cheryl Ann Fulton. #VGM #Braid #Celtic #GameMusic #ForgottenMelodies

From ZX Spectrum beeps to symphonic gothic soundscapes: The original Heavy on the Magick (1986) theme (linked in comments) reimagined as background music for my attempt at playing this one-of-a-kind adventure from another era. #GothicMusic #Symphonic #VGM #ZXSpectrum

90s voice acting at its finest: Paul Eiding (@pauleiding.bsky.social) as Lazarus in Diablo (1996) channels chilling fanaticism, bringing the infernal cultist to life. 🔥👹 #Diablo #VoiceActing #90sGaming #GamingHistory #RetroGaming #Iconic #DarkProphecy

I’ve gathered some of the most beautiful nature-infused video game soundtracks, from the forests of Baldur’s Gate to the mysteries of Secret of Evermore. Perfect for relaxing and wandering in your imagination. #VGM #RPGMusic #NatureMusic #ElderScrolls #BaldursGate #NatureAmbient #VideoGameMusic

In this video, I experimented with expanding the original in-game artwork while keeping its authentic style. The untouched versions appear at 46:24 (original resolution: 103×128). The music, composed by Michiel van den Bos, is one of my all-time favorite fantasy soundtracks. #vgm #retrogaming

Master of Orion (1993) laid the foundation for one of the greatest 4X strategy franchises of the early PC gaming era. The game ran in classic VGA 256-color mode at a native resolution of 320×200. #upscaling #lowresolutiongaming #OPL3 #RolandLAPC-I

Master of Orion 2 (1996) will forever be one of my top favorite 4x games. I loved everything about it and especially the incredible soundtrack by Laura Barratt. I’ve been experimenting with upscaling the old Smacker video files. Original resolutions: 480x160 and 288x208

Check out the classic 1993 Fantasy Empires soundtrack by Eric Heberling! I dug into the game files, extracted the original .XMI tracks, and recorded both the OPL3 and Roland SCC-1 versions. A hidden gem for fans of DOS game music, D&D, and retro strategy. #DOSGaming #VGM #OPL3 #RolandSCC1 #DnDMusic
