I`m here to take a look around. Far too much political propaganda at the other place. Who knew that would happen? Who's here to talk #C64, #Amiga, new game developments and a bit of Scalextric? Specialist subject: #BABYMETAL - ThreadSky

Welcome aboard. Your early work and dev diaries inspired me to become a games developer. Thanks for all the great games you've made and knowledge you've shared. I certainly owe you a couple of pints for the impact you've had on me.

You're welcome. Always nice to hear someone has been inspired to get into the creative and technical arts.

Sounds cool as fuck , although sorry I'm too young to know em, first I ever knew was GameCube and even then I'm more familiar with stuff like the PSP or PC games of that time 😅

I followed the Nintendo route from the Wii, Wii U and the Switch. Writing retro games on the PC at the moment. Nice to see old arcade games getting an airing on the Switch.

Ooh nice, I am honestly kind of curious about the "degree of difference" so to speak between the originals and the switch versions! Retro games do have a soft spot in my heart, for a lot of reasons but simply because they seem somehow to make more sense to me

I wouldn't mind betting they have converted MAME to the Switch so it is emulating the actual arcade code. Just then add a wrapper round it to get it loaded.

Considering Nintendo emulates while telling us not to, I would NOT be surprised 😂

Unfortunately, there’s quite a bunch of political crap here too

Another visitor! I've been hoping you'd join, since I left twitter some time ago.

I may post about the Amiga or Commodore 8 bits now and again...

Welcome Andrew! What's your highscore on Uridium?!

I can't remember now. I got to Iron for the fifth time. This took me quite a time and led me to make 16 generally tougher levels. I got to about level 12 the second time on those in Uridium+. Could I do it now? Likely not!
