bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Something I always planned to do with my Amiga game Ecliptic was release the source code - and here it is! bwldrbst.itch.io/ecliptic/dev...bwldrbst.itch.ioSource Code ReleaseI’m a big fan of open source software and, from the very beginning, planned to release the source code to Ecliptic. So, here it is: https://github.com/adkennan/Ecliptic_public. This is not my origin..... 000
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 16/05/2026After more than 3 years of work, I've released my game, Ecliptic! bwldrbst.itch.io/ecliptic/dev...bwldrbst.itch.ioRELEASED!After more than three years of work, this is Ecliptic 1.0! What you get: 8 levels to fight through, including two never included in the demos. More than 20 monsters. Heaps of weapons. Puzzles! Jokes!.... 064
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Revel in your rights! If you can't be bothered to choose your leaders, they will be chosen for you and they will be shit Also: Pauline Hanson and One Nation can go suck goats in hell. The idea of them as a viable opposition is ridiculous. They have no position other than division. 000
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Preferential voting means my vote is never wasted - sending my preferences to Labor does a couple of things: it enables the government I prefer _and_ sends the message that they're not ideal. My preferences will probably pass through the legalise marijuana guys first but you know what I mean! 000
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 20/03/2026I have come to appreciate our compulsory preferential voting system more and more. No longer do I spout ANARCHY at passers-by. I vote Green because their policies best describe the future I want my children to live in. The more people that agree with me, the more likely this Star Trek future is. 000

bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 16/02/2026Probably makes a noise like a 747 taking off! 010
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 17/01/2026Still got the same 1200 I've had for over 30 years. Monitors have come and gone (oh NEC 3D I miss you) but the current 1084s is perfect for games. 010

bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 09/12/2024I wish I knew what happened to mine... My parents gave it away at some point. 000
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Played it on my C64 as a kid. More recently my son and I have played through PoR and this on Amiga. Haven't tried the later ones, though. 000
bwldrbst.bsky.social @bwldrbst.bsky.social · 27/11/2024The C64 is great - my first computer - but the Amiga 1200 - in particular the one I've owned since new - is my favourite. 130
