Wakefield's October speaker was Andrew Rawnsley from R-Comp, giving us some updates and teasers for the London Show (in case you need more reasons to attend!)

I’ve really enjoyed the demo for this game and although not my usual genre, I’m intrigued enough to back it and see what the team can achieve!

I've been working on Ovation Pro to add extra scaling options to the picture proxy setting. For those who attended my @rougol.bsky.social talk, I explained the use of proxy images. Base/16, Base/32 & Base/64 now offer even smaller proxies, making for smaller document sizes.

Remember how we said late-pledges would close at the end of last weekend? Well, we had a couple of people asking us to wait for pay day and so they are still open but not 4 long. Amazingly, we got to £40k and unlocked another stretch goal! (Goat+Art cards) shorturl.at/0H9cs

How slow SD card storage is;
How fast a Pi 3B+ was in its day;
How cool it runs!

It's a good little machine, but it does remind you how far we've come since then.

Just to say, if there’s a video called x consoles that never y - then it’s only ever going to be someone reading a Wikipedia entry or cribbing another video whilst showing video from an emulator or that they haven’t made. Theres a reason why my videos on machines are 10+ minutes long
