Car and I are packed for Kickstart. That's the beginning - I'm not back to work until 18th August 😁

Thought I'd talk about UZDoom V5.0 a little. Even though i'm not that much of a technical guy.

2026: RAM prices are crazy! 1981: Hold my beer...

L Break Into Program@breakintoprogram.co.uk · yesterday

The ZX81 16K RAM Pack retailed for £29.95 in 1981. By my reckoning, it would have cost £29,950,000 to buy 16GB back then, not adjusting for inflation.

Reminder that you can still just...use ad blockers on Firefox. Wild concept, we know.

It may have been overkill, but I took the datasheet of the Philips tube used in the Commodore 1084 monitor and used it to recalculate the angles of the CRT shader in Copperline. This is almost ready to be included in the next release. #Amiga

Amiga announces out-of-court settlement with Hyperion amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2... #Amiga

Hyperion Entertainment BV and Amiga Corporation reach settlement – all ongoing legal disputes ended. More information below.

It's taken a couple of days but I think I have all the #Amiga stuff ready for Kickstart on Friday. I just need to pack trivial things like clothes now (throws some tshirts in a Tesco bag) ok all sorted. www.amigashow.com

TONIGHT 8pm BST at twitch.tv/NAG_Graham - kicking off #AMIGAugust with a fond final look at #Amiga games from 1995. The good, the bad and, well, the Skeleton Krew (I blame Mortal Kombat for this nonsense) all feature (as long as my internet doesn't die again, of course) - tune in for some jeopardy.

Now I've finished the PC version, I've also been working on a #ZXSpectrumNext conversion of #Oids. It should be ready some time this week once I get the last few bugs and performance issues sorted out. It's nearly feature complete and seems to run at a steady 50fps. #retro #GameDev #AtariST

Beta seven is now available. I think this is the first version of Pixel Processor where it feels like it’s becoming its own thing rather than just an increasingly elaborate test bench for potential future Retrospecs functionality. Grab the TestFlight via pixelprocessor.co.uk

You want to make a Mega Drive game but don't know how to code in C? But wait there's more, it also does Amiga and Neo Geo games.

Turns out, I'm on the Amiga Game Devs panel at Kickstart 3 on the Friday morning! Come and listen to me mutter and swear. www.amigashow.com #Amiga #Commodore #RetroDev #RetroGaming

Old post! Donut Dodo isn’t just inspired by arcade games of old, it feels every bit the classic as one… gamesfromtheblackhole.wordpress.com/2024/04/21/d...

Donut Dodo – Classic arcade games aren’t extinct!

The year of release might say 2022 but Donut Dodo is a modern indie game that presents itself as a lost arcade game from 1983. It’s not unusual for indie games to throw back to the visual styles an…

Doing some organising for Kickstart. I’ll have Lumo playable, and will be running a Rogue Declan prize competition over the two days. I’ll bring the 600GS too. I need to pick up a monitor, and my GBSC PSU should arrive and 🤞🏻I can get a better third screen going off that too. #amiga #retrogaming

I look at #Amiga "Xenon 2 : Megablast" published in 1989 by Image Works. Mostly looking at the lovely parallax, sprite work, and discovering the huge amount of blitter activity going on. youtu.be/YIX4j7sYS0s
