We added a new enemy type to Solid-State Soldier! (メ°皿°)ﾉ After this quick break, back to writing docs (T_T)...

We finished Solid-State Soldier enemy shooting! (∩` ﾛ ´)⊃━炎炎炎炎炎 We still have to fix Z-ordering though...

We took a break from MD Engine map editor to work on Solid-State Soldier level selector! Soon we will have new pictures of MD Engine map editor! Stay tuned ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)！

#inkventure from #9ratones, @twoblackcats.jp, and @ratalaikagames.com is a wonderful puzzle platormer that is available for the #MegaDrive/#Genesis! It's pretty much #DeBlob on #MegaDrive! ROM provided by @twoblackcats.jp Chekout my review: youtu.be/piIP-eGXuZs

We are almost done with Solid-State Soldier levels! We fixed some of the enemy AIs as well. Soon we'll have to go back to documentation writing (T_T)...

It took some time, but we finally managed to get MD Engine working on Linux! (✯◡✯) #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We're looking to get a Game Gear cartridge PCB designed! If someone with cartridge PCB design experience is interested, please send us a DM! This would be PAID work! RTs appreciated x3

We finished the camera module sample! It's based on @haxeflixel.bsky.social FlxCamera example. It displays all basic options of the camera module! Follow, lerp, offset, shake, and flash. You can also set your own deadzone for better customization! ٩(｡•́‿•̀｡)۶ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We added support to define animation speed per sprite, per animation, or frame! We also added animation preview support. Everything already works in-game as well! ヽ(*⌒▽⌒*)ﾉ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

The Destiny Spire demo is out now on Steam 🎉 🎉 🎉 ! Check it out now: store.steampowered.com/app/3369150/... #RPG #indiegame #RETROGAMING #pixelgame #jrpg

change of plans! i'm keeping my car, but i'll still need help paying for its registration (this means i'll also need help paying monthly expenses on top of that). will work for pay, portfolio is: foreverwip.github.io donation links: paypal.me/fwiprose cash.me/$amyfarbright #commissions #mutualaid

I'd forgotten just how much of a banger the second OP of Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory is. 🔥 📺: Dokan magazine cover CD 06, 1998

We finally finished the scroll debug overlay! Now you can track the visible area of the game no matter your scroll setup, full screen, tile, or line! We just have to add a button to turn it on/off haha. ٩(｡•́‿•̀｡)۶ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We added three debugging planes you can enable on the layers tab. They allow the display of triggers, sprite collision boxes, and temporary triggers. It was a pain to debug the temporary triggers' position otherwise... ~(>_<~) #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We added support to preview both sound effects & music files inside the editor! It works for both WAV and VGM files! In theory, it should also work for Game Gear and Master System VGM files too! (ˇ▽ˇ)ノ♪♬♫ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We added a way to reshape the VDP at the start/end of scenes. You can have very detailed backgrounds on some scenes, and big sprites on others! In this video, we switch from a detailed background to a big sprite in the next scene! ヾ(´〇`)ﾉ♪♪♪ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We reworked the collision system this week! We added a new "simple" mode that allows for up to 25 different enemies with physics + yourself at the same time! Those enemies can kick you as well! (=O*_*)=O #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We took a small break from MD Engine documentation to work on a rail shooter, Solid-State Soldier, for a few days! Writing documentation is sooo boring ( ╥ω╥ ). At least we fixed some collision issues while working on this!

We finally finished the localization system! You can swap between different languages on the fly with minimal game-code changes! #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We made a new video explaining how to make Temporary Triggers for usual top-down attacks! Next, we will create one about Actor <> Actor collisions! You can watch it here : youtu.be/7rdF6AIa4UM

We finally received the first batch of PCBs we're using for testing and development, now with custom logos! They support 8MB without the need for a mapper. You can save to the flash memory directly if you use MD Engine! They are based on doragasu FlatMap64 :)!

We've published the demo of our 2nd Megadrive game, Inkventure, to our @itchio.bsky.social page! The Megadrive version will be handled by Retro Room Games once they can! twoblackcats.itch.io/inkventure

We've been checking, and so far, the only option we saw for bundling GB Studio ROMs for PC release seems to be using Electron? I wonder if we should do a small app to bundle it like we do on MD Engine inside a C++ exe that supports Steam achievements, and a few other things...

We made a new video explaining how to make Tile-Based movement for an actor! Next, we will do one about interactive actors! You can watch it here : youtu.be/G-zsXaitHlQ

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

We got #MDEngine approved for Steam release! Don't forget to follow it & check! #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine (　･ω･)☞ store.steampowered.com/app/3706620/...

We finished our video showing how to change the game's default font. It also shows the bitmap font generator included with the engine! Sorry for the caption area! We're not fans of speaking English or using an AI voice! (⌒_⌒;) www.youtube.com/watch?v=47wZ...

We completed the integration of the Japanese rendering support! We can now use variable-width fonts and fonts bigger than 8x8 pixels! (ﾉ>ω<)ﾉ :｡･:*:･ﾟ’★,｡･:*:･ﾟ’☆ #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

It's been a few weeks since our last update!! We added support for shadow & highlight feature to both MD Engine and the emulator used for debugging and export. We did this small sample, trying to do a similar approach to the Options Menu of Aero the Acro-Bat 2! (⌒_⌒;) #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

A brand new Sega Genesis/Megadrive game in 2025!🔥🎮 Prisonela MD is an action/platform that has you escaping a prison plunged into chaos! 😱 Can you escape!?! Secure your copy below! 👇👇👇 theretroroomgames.com/products/pri...

We finished our first video showcasing how to use the engine to make a small platformer example. Or in this case, a rectangle moving & jumping... (シ. .)シ youtu.be/-5nOB2XeXCE

We've been thinking about recording a simple video of how to make a square move & jump around on MD Engine so people can start feeling what using the engine feels like. Is it a good idea?

We're almost done testing all Inkventure levels! Hopefully a publisher will want it for physical once we're done... (* ^ ω ^) #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine

We're testing all Inkventure levels next! (˙ω˙)🎮 #sgdk #megadrive #mdengine
