2026 basically

Someone is porting Alien Breed 3D from its Assembly source code into C/SDL to run on Windows! Pretty cool!

What's New Wednesday time! Looking at new games on old systems or retro inspired indie titles. Here's a few teaser screenshots. 7.30pm UK today twitch.tv/charliefar

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Hmm. Twitch subs have got pricey. Might have to not renew some until Subtember discounts again. Do streamers get anything from Twitch Turbo?

Burnout 3 is underrated as one of the very, very best games of all time because you can show Burnout 3 footage to people two decades later and their reaction will still be "hell yeah, this rules. I wanna play this right now."

If you *are* at GDC for some reason, please boo loudly throughout this section.

FromFB: 😂

For Lent this year I'm giving up.

NEW VIDEO! #Roguecraft DX not only expands upon the Amiga update to Rogue64, but it brings it over to the #GBColor and more excitedly, the #Mega65! So time to get back to the dungeons and see how a 16-bit upgrade is squeezed onto some 8-bits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i5onm…

Told work I’m giving up work for Lent.

What's your favourite Amiga game and why? Some answers will appear in the magazine.

I look at #Amiga "Cecconoid" published in 2024 by Thalamus. It uses a dual playfield mode, with CPU updating particles, the blitter modifies particle code, and hardware sprite multiplex with the copper. youtu.be/7OVBSs_Rl60

DEAD SILENCE (S.A. Barnes). Psychological horror blurring paranormal and regular bad deeds around a luxury space cruiser lost for decades. Is this all really happening or is the protagonist's mind finally cracking? #SciFi #Reading

Got Lumo (Amiga) ported over to building on Linux without too much trouble now too.

Guess what! Work is annoying me today. I know! Mad, right?

Finally selling my #Mega65 dev unit. These are rarer numbered units, different cases but identical motherboard. Looking for £600 minus postage, if anyone is interested.

Not sure if these are related (yet), but my work laptop disk has suddenly filled up with 850Gb of undeletable "System Data" after being upgraded to macOS 26 last week 🤦🏻

how much?!?! #VintageComputing ebay.us/m/3UdbTC

So, I spent a lot of today writing a unified build script to build the game for multiple platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac and Steamdeck), but I did get to do some fun stuff too. #JetSetWilly #Retro #Gamedev #Python

How do you like the self-help guides for retro collectors that @amylherndon.bsky.social and I made for @vcfsocal.bsky.social?

Anyone up for some endless screaming today?

Aaaaand it's finished! Here are all 10 levels in its full glory. It may not seem like much but trust me I've been through so many issues and crashes that I was *very* close to giving up. But now it's in a state where I am happy with the results. #dreamcast #gamedev #homebrew youtu.be/QcI3XUieh_Q

Got my current Amiga project cross compiling from Linux (previously on macOS) on the cheap ThinkPad X1 I picked up for traveling. I need to port my customised FSUAE next so I can actually run it though.

This is amazing. Actually all of Rob’s stuff is amazing, but this is 50%more amazing than the last amazing thing. 😅😁👍

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

Quake II on a Mac Mini G4 running Mac OS 9.2. Glass of wine. Bliss.

Now that's what I'm talking about. VSCode can suck it. NeoVIM is dead to me. This is a TUI text editor for this century. getfresh.dev

I haven’t been very productive this week. You should try it sometime.

Tonight, I'm taking requests for the first round of Longplay Auditions. If your game is picked I'll play it every Friday and hopefully complete it. 7pm UK today twitch.tv/charliefar

It's Friday the 13th, and I'm still angry about these crisps.
