Very proud of the work I did on Gex Trilogy. If you want to hear me ramble on about it, this is the avenue for that. If you're ready for tail time, you can pick it up on your platform of choice June 16th.

It's crazy how well they're were able to adapt both the look and vibes of the CDI Zelda games without it feeling forced. And on top of being a nice love letter to those games and that era of YTP humour, it's just a really fun game on it's own! A surprisingly fun time!

Cutscene screenshot of MeenTC (a recreation of I.M. Meen in GZDoom). I.M. Meen is laughing at the player. In the background is an old brick wall and a golden full-length mirror.

Gameplay screenshot of MeenTC (a recreation of I.M. Meen in GZDoom). The player is correcting the grammar of a scroll. The text of the scroll reads: A page from the novel Meen Goes to Mars by I. M. Meen: They found the ancient rocket ship they were searching for. It lay at the bottom of a deep crater, covered with centuries of red Martian dust. "Well, Wanda, let's go see what's inside," said handsome rocket pilot I. M. Meen, flexing his tremendous muscles. "Whatever you say, sir," Wanda replied. She followed the daring rocket pilot down into the crater, happy to be working with such a brave and neatly dressed fellow.
Version 1.0 of MeenTC - a remake of I.M. Meen in GZDoom - is out!
Thanks to Melodic Spaceship on Doomworld, MeenTC now has the scroll-editing mode that made I.M. Meen an edutainment game! It's now feature-complete and plays (nearly) identically to the original game!

Just finished Arzette And The Jewel Of Faramore. Never thought I'd see a spiritual successor to cdi zelda let alone an actual good one. It's short and sweet with some awesome music and artwork. Had a ton of fun with this one and highly recommend it if you're a fan of old school action platformers
