I'm still working on the PS1 port of Secret of Monkey Island, but this is something I've had on my radar for a while so last night I added the missing audio mixer backend. Credit for the original code goes to phcoder youtu.be/nzag83DBn4g CC: @scummbar.com @kaptajnen.bsky.social

Sunday

good morning

This is rather brilliant - Having Super Mario Kart Racing in your own home, the live-action version. This course features collectible LEGO figures of Mario, Luigi and the gang. The creation is part of a Rube Goldberg-style machine featured by Joseph's Machines. #mario #lego #racing #fun

@eblong.com I thought this might be useful for the IF community. I created a clone of Chris Ainsley's (of Adventuron fame) Puzzlon, with some QoL improvements. I plan releasing a desktop version of it soon, as well. happy-ferret.com/PuzzleCharter/

I found this cool user @yhzmr442.bsky.social earlier today on Twitter, who's put together this impressive little 3D #Starfox Arwing tech demo Only, this is not the SNES, but the #PCEngine / #TurboGraFX An 8-bit system absolutely not known for its polygon prowess #retrogaming #PCE #gamedev #homebrew

#BadApple probably needs no introduction It's an iconic FMV opening that dedicated nerds around the world have ported to everything from the Atari 2600 to post-it notes. Here is a brand new one by "Slamy" for the infamous Phillips #CDi running at 30fps at 768×280! #retrogaming #homebrew #gamedev

Working on my own puzzle dependency graphing tool, inspired by Puzzlon (which appears to be down currently. Maybe just an SSL issue). Thanks to @adventuron.bsky.social and @grumpygamer.com for the inspiration.

youtu.be/pW70hfHonLg I remember Battlecruiser 3000 AD. It was aggressively promoted in gaming magazines back in the 90s.

What you're looking at here is "Sonic R" Not for the #Saturn though. but instead running in clean 64-bit, translated C code compiled and running on Apple silicon / OpenGL. And what's more, we even got a tease about a potential #Dreamcast port~ #Sonic #homebrew #gamedev #retrogaming #retro

🐭with my power of putting graphics on the screen and roxy's power of doing all the really wild technical code that allows me to put graphics on the screen, we now have a working map system >:3 #indiedev #gamedev #gamemaker

An early alpha build (sans the terrible audio I'm still working to fix) of The Secret of Monkey Island for PlayStation 1 is now available for my Patreon backers (you will need to provide your own game files, for obvious reasons) www.patreon.com/posts/secret...

@playstationpark.bsky.social @scummdoc.bsky.social @scummbar.com Early progress shots of my SCUMM engine port to PlayStation 1, graphical glitches and all. After that port I'm giving some love to the 3DO and Sega Saturn.

Gonna post more about my WIP #SCUMM work on my Patreon in the coming days. Currently I'm still struggling with the graphics code on #PS1 but I'm hoping to clean it all up over the weekend. I also dug into the #3DO SDK last night www.patreon.com/posts/154740...

Very early work on porting SCUMM v5 to the venerable PlayStation 1 @lardratboy.bsky.social back in the day, did Lucas Arts ever consider porting any of the SCUMM games to the 32 bit consoles or did (sales) experience with Secret of Monkey Island on Sega CD sour that idea?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdII... This Took me way too long to implement (2 days of frustration) but I added a bunch of new subopcodes (getInstanceVar, setInstanceVar, killInstance, spawnInstance, countInstances, getNthInstance) so I could potentially build a Diablo-like in the future. #SCUMM

Great folk horror game with a lot of fascinating historical depth! I wrote an in-depth article about its Gnostic influences a while ago (beware spoilers!) www.mashxtomuse.com/the-gnostic-...

@lardratboy.bsky.social During your time at Lucas Arts or Humongous Entertainment, did any of you ever wake up one day and decide to implement Tetris in SCUMM?

@scummdoc.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/ovjlT... More progress is being made on the GZDoomification/GrimE-fication of SCUMM. Follow me on Patreon for more upcoming SCUMM related tech www.patreon.com/c/happyferret

@scummdoc.bsky.social My HD renderer for SCUMM (now known as StoryBun. A name I chose as a homage to the cancelled StoryDroid engine originally planned for The Dig) gained SVG support & a PBR pipeline with GLB support for static objects and cursors. Coming up next: 3D actors and animated 3D objects

This in-development C64 conversion of The Secret of Monkey Island looks incredible. pixeldust.se/monkey-islan...

@scummdoc.bsky.social Working on an HD renderer (think Remonkeyed Engine, as seen in DOTT Remastered and Full Throttle Remastered) for SCUMM games So far fonts (still working on font rendering. Still lacks kerning), backgrounds and objects can be replaced More on my Patreon/YouTube
