The last 4 games I played. One from the 80s, two from the 90s, and one from the 00s. Rayforce is definitely my favorite from this group!

I've been checking out Gun Frontier, a pretty cool shmup for 1990. The Saturn port has an Easy difficulty, which made it a fun way to grab a casual 1CC

We announced our game last week, and I just wanted to say thanks for all the love! 💙 Also, I promise this account won't be 100% self promotion. I'll share what we're working on, but also other geeky things I'm into. Our 2nd account,
@chaindamagegames.bsky.social

I've been trying to learn Mushihimesama Futari 1.5 Maniac, but I wasn't prepared for how hard this mode is! I cleared Black Label Maniac a couple of years ago, and I thought 1.5 Maniac would be a little harder. But it's a dramatic difference! I'm having fun, but holy moly

I finished customizing my arcade stick today. It's a Mayflash F700 with Seimitsu parts and art from Gradius. It's really fun to play on this!

Got a new personal best in DoDonPachi DaiOuJou. I can see a pixel of the final boss at the top of the screen! Does that mean I made it to the final boss? The main problem is that I didn't get 50m to get another life. I'll have to work on that.

I heard there's a thing where you post a random game from your collection on Saturday. So, here's Druid for the Famicom Disk System. It's a fun little adventure reminiscent of Gauntlet.

Happy 40th birthday to Marble Madness! 🎉 I keep noticing that games I grew up with are turning 40. This year also included Pac-Land, Kung Fu, and Excitebike. Next year will be a big one with Super Mario Bros.

Today's the last day to grab Espgaluda II and DoDoPachi Resurrection on Switch before they're removed from the eshop. I recommend both! It's a shame when games like this get removed. Links:
