I made a Doom source port that runs within a PDF file.

PDFs support Javascript, so Emscripten is used to compile Doom to asm.js, which is then run within the PDF engine. Input/output is done by manipulating text input fields.

Did we dig up a totally unseen Atari 2600 game from 1984, programmed by one of the few women creating console games in the early 1980s?

And did we interview her?

Yes we did.

Atari 50's "The First Console War" DLC, out November 8.

Some of you i know from tw/x, but lots of you are new faces, so iโ€™m just going to start dripping my best-ofs.

This is 100% NES displayable without cartridge expansions on its own. Cat & gold chain as sprites. Using emphasis bits to narrow colours towards cold.

Intended for one of my game projects
