No better time than now to build Allegro 4.2.3 from source in an old DJGPP within a DOSBox.

thinking about this comments i got... i actually have exactly one thing to say about moon child: it's cheerful and optimistic in a way that i think everyone yearns for right now. that's the end of this video essay about moon child thanks for watching

This power is what all true friends strive for

Okay so you might see this video with the audio muted. Now imagine how the music must sound like. I urge you to unmute and listen to what it's actually like because I guarantee you you're not prepared for it.

if "cancelation" can refer to someone either 1. Being broadly disliked by a bunch of powerless randos on the internet, or 2. Being legally barred from entering a G7 nation, then I think the word is too imprecise for further use. pack it in, fellas

One of the things I love about retro games as a hobby is that there's always more and it's always weirder. Nobody can possibly hold the entirety of the topic in their head and so you're always finding out about some strange game that you've never heard of.

Honestly, It's one thing to hear of this in passing on social media. It's another to actually, barely but still, see the inferno from the window of your own fucking bedroom. I'm having a mental health moment today, gimme a bit before I'm back to being barely productive.

It is happening again.

Remaster of Broken Sword 2 is being crowdfunded right now, and this time Revolution are taking a no-AI approach: www.kickstarter.com/projects/rev...

Hey if you still have an Angelfire or Tripod site, or if you like one, now is the time to back it up, like, urgently

Note to self: When writing a MIDI ISR sound driver, maybe don't assume that 0-delay events mean 1-timer tick. Otherwise, it will make your song sound... wonky.

I hope I can get code up an running to start working on a #DOS #VGA game project. Sound, and keyboard code is functional enough, but I'll need to start on game logic things for a project soon. #C #gamedev #OPL2

Wrote me a Creative Music Format, #OPL2 player that overlays sampled drums and snares. It can output to an AdLib, not just an original Sound Blaster, albeit without sample drums. Wrote it in #C. Still has a timing issue with instant-off notes, but it mostly works with songs I converted to it.

Uploaded some test code again on itch. flyisfry128.itch.io/dos-programm...

thank you for voting and participating in the illusion of choice

The Criterion Collection? What, like all the Burnout games plus the experimental first person shooter "Black"?

Over about the past week, I have converted ~30 songs from MIDI to CMF, and written a tool in C to polish RSD GAME-MAKER maps with a dual-tile grid like system using multiple-15 tiles in the tilemap, and revisited an old project from such engine I made from 2019. Overall, I feel proud of myself.

Life is like a shareware compilation. You never know what you're gonna get.

Pain: Looks like I'm on my own in trying to make a custom new image format to use in 640x480x16 VGA modes, that supports compression, and can decompress fast on real hardware. Default graph.h library is cool and all, but is limited in some ways.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!" counterpoint! the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

So yeah... spam eMails which look like they come from a legitimate site, have links TO the actual site, but clicking the link sends you to the site's redirect system and then off-site to a scam site pretending to be the place you went to. BE CAUTIOUS.

yo dawg

"Is there technology the left is excited about?" i will talk to you for several hours about the DOS game i'm making in qbasic it uses a faux 160x100 resolution that lets me do mode 13h faux page swapping i am very excited about it

With the RAM shortages and financial risks, I think developers should target lower spec, inexpensive systems. This is something that game companies in developing markets have had to deal with for decades and people should learn from them. What I'm saying is 2027 will be the year of the famiclone.

After I regain my focus, I have a quenching to make a DOS game using digitized images from a VHS-C camcorder. That is the whole post.

One hell of a Game Over screen, huh

There is something strangely perfect about Bruce Campbell praising Markiplier.

THE HALIKAN LIVES youtu.be/3_XdQwZSrag The Chaplet Halikan LA-30 is an interesting 80s laptop on its own but this one busting into 1000 pieces & being restored by PolyMatt takes it to another level. Let's dive into using the PC itself, its odd quirks, and its small but fascinating spot in history!

When I was little my mom didnt want me drawing guns cuz they were too violent so as a loophole I just did anyway but every time I drew a gun I would just write "NERF" on it

It's called consolidation. Strengthen governments & corporations, weaken individuals. With updates, this can be done imperceptibly over time.
