I'm most impressed by Gorimuchu's 3D endeavours on the system. As someone that did a textured raycaster on the NES, I know how much of a massive pain in the rear it is to make a 3D game on a tile-based system.

PCEdev today. Still at it! I've done a little optimisation on the sound engine, and I've added the 2nd miniboss's ship coming in #gamedev #pcengine #turbografx

April Fools! Did you get RickRoll'd? :P See you next year, and sorry for fooling you guys again. Special thanks to @pointerfunction.bsky.social and @iiomarsp.bsky.social for testing and serving as guinea pigs, sorry guys :D

Remember those mech drawings I posted earlier? Well, it was a tease for a previously abandoned NES project I recently dug up, polished, and made playable :D Come and check out this never-before seen NES homebrew on my itch -> vectrex28.itch.io/augmented-co... #nesdev #gamedev

Nice one! While there is no practical reason to own one of these, I would still love to get my hands on one one day - I kinda want to see how it works on the dev aspect and how NTSC games would have needed to be optimised on it :D

Not dead yet! Just been busy with other things :P Here's a miniboss I'm working on for Special Ninja Squad. Featuring a bike chase because I listen to you guys :P I should have most of the assets now. Just need to draw a few extra tiles and off to implementation! #pcengine #gamedev #turbografx

Has this ever happened to anyone else? I got over 3000 downloads on two of my April Fools' games on itch, but no views. Guessing bots?

RIP my wallet On the positive side, I now have 12 carts left for a full PAL/NTSC NES set. Used to be my main focus before moving to Japan/getting into PC Engine, but I'm still grabbing the ones I need when I have the chance!

Haven't had much chance to work on the game recently, sometimes life gets in the way. Still planning to go back to it as soon as I can though! For now, I found this silly manga about salaryman ninjas, I feel like I might get some inspiration for Special Ninja Squad :P

Something else from the video archives, and it's my look at 1943 Kai for PC Engine! You might just think it's a darn solid conversion of Capcom's remix of 1943, but then you find out it's more. So much more. Which makes a darn tight conversion *truly* special. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Bcy...

Does smashing the dead miniboss's head around bring anything to the gameplay?  No. Is it hella fun?  Absolutely! #pcengine #gamedev #turbografx

Great read! I have two, one I got for less than peanuts in a lot of Famicom(?!) games on Mercari, and another one gifted to me by a friend on the condition I repair it and I give it a good home. It is such a fun handheld, especially for nerds beyond saving like me :P
