That reminds me, I have a course to finish.

The work-in-progress "maketune" utility for CGALIB. The music is the start of a transcription of Schumann's Sketch in C minor for Organ or Pedal Piano.

The CGALIB music editor is still a work in progress, but I'm looking forward to using it for my #DOSember game jam entry. Transcribing sheet music into this will be a lot easier than typing a bunch of numbers in a text file, like I did with my previous projects.

Hehe I haven't gotten much info. It's usually along the lines of. " Oh it was written in C++ with blah compiler"

I love reaching out to the original programmers of the old games that I'm reverse engineering.
"Hey can you tell me why you did XYZ in the code you wrote over 30 years ago."

It's important to stay hydrated.

The DOS Game Jam starts in less than a day!

We're two participants away from 100! Will you be the one to make number go up?

I was scrolling blue sky and thought "That looks familiar?!" I coded this 10 years ago for the SMS power coding comp

This is very cool. I took a look at winter challenge a few years back. I only got as far as unpacking the data files. I got scared off by the overlays. github.com/yuv422/winte...

Hehe yeah these days there isn't much call for 422.

Hehe good question. I liked that yuv422 has sub-sampled chrominence which exploits the fact that the human brain is more sensitive to luminance so it doesn't notice the lack of color detail.

We heard you have some questions about BioMenace Remastered - we got some answers. If you have any more questions, be sure to comment them here, we'll get back to you!

I finally got around to getting a copy of this one. It's a good game, right?! 😉 #Ultima

I was going to mention that. U6 is speed sensitive. I think there is a patched driver for adlib available which fixes it.

Wow, what a way to start. It was such a terrible accident. I get chills every time I watch the launch footage.

I've written a tool to pack and unpack the data files from the 90s MS-DOS game Shuttle: The Space Flight Simulator.

Now I can tick off my goal of launching a Boeing 747 aircraft into orbit!! 😂
