Great! Please add me. 🙂 Thanks!

erickinkead.bsky.social•77 days ago

I made Atari ST games in the 80's

Coin-Op/NES/SNES/Genesis/PSX/PC in the 90's.

Dreamcast/PS2/Gamecube/Gameboy Advance/ etc. 2000+

I donate to SPCA and Volunteer when I can. Please Consider this poor game developer, who's worked on titles the world has heard of, to be accepted on your list. 🤓

Subbed, thanks!

jimbo-mcgibbits.bsky.social•77 days ago

Thanks for sharing that. There's some great people in there 😀

james.pixelrefresh.com•77 days ago

Would appreciate being added to the list if deemed worthy 🫠

Feel free to add your favorite Newfoundlander ;)

ronscompvids.bsky.social•77 days ago

You’re already on there lol

everythingisbroken.bsky.social•77 days ago

Yay I have made "THE LIST"

danikaze.bsky.social•78 days ago

@retrogamesbot.bsky.social is a bot, but it's a honest one 😂

erickinkead.bsky.social•77 days ago

I've noticed so many bots out here. 1 'developer' posts a question every day. about 10-12 people answer it. And they do it enthusiastically. The 'I'm learning indie dev! developer' doesn't even bother liking, let alone responding.

danikaze.bsky.social•77 days ago

Oh no. That's just a bot I made to share retro games, that's all 😬
Check its content just for fun 🙂

erickinkead.bsky.social•77 days ago

No. It feels weird seeing myself or games, or games I've made, let alone reaching out to rEtRo BoTs.

Most Retro 'enthusiasts' (people use it to drive traffic) don't care about people like ME who actually made those games since 1988. They don't care about our lives, stories, work.

Nauseating.

ronscompvids.bsky.social•77 days ago

Since that bot account isn’t on my list, I’m not sure what you’re on about.

danikaze.bsky.social•77 days ago

Based on the replies I'm getting nothing, I see.
It's just a nice feed to discover "new" retro games for people who might not know them, but who am I to say nothing 🤷‍♂️

retroviator.com•77 days ago

Thank you for including my account. Happy Holidays!

leadedsolder.com•78 days ago

I'm an egg! Thanks!

linuxjedi.co.uk•77 days ago

I think @stoocambridge.bsky.social and @tonywarriner.bsky.social are definitely worthy if you are looking for more 🙂

brianterrill.bsky.social•77 days ago

But that 3DFX sli tho'...

nicolasmailloux.bsky.social•77 days ago

Thanks for putting me into it!

gammitin.bsky.social•77 days ago

Alas, I'm a bad egg 😔

ateliermichi.bsky.social•77 days ago

I'm pretty sure I'm not on the list, but I'm pretty sure I'm a bad egg!

(Stayed up until 4am on Christmas Eve fixing a floppy drive emulator just to make playing retro eroge easier... DEFINITELY a bad egg! And loving it, hehe)

gammitin.bsky.social•77 days ago

Sounds like a perfect good way to spend time to me, it's the holidays, why not!

ateliermichi.bsky.social•77 days ago

Only because staying up late and sleeping 4 hours tends to make me get a cold easier. But I don't have to go out, so less germs?!?! It's a trade off!

A worthwhile tradeoff, given I no longer need to risk damaging floppies to play Ys!

gammitin.bsky.social•77 days ago

pc-8801?

ateliermichi.bsky.social•77 days ago

This is it all assembled! (The computer below it is an Epson PC-98 clone that I used for testing. My main machine is a PC-9821, but I hope to one day get a different model, like a 9801 BX2. 9821 has Pentium, too fast!)

ateliermichi.bsky.social•77 days ago

9801, actually! I used to have these Goteks in an 8801, which was much easier. But I didn't enjoy that as much, since it removed the ability to use the physical drives. With this setup, the drives are in an external enclosure, so I can use it alongside real physical floppies!
