Those getting their teeth into Final Fantasy Tactics this month, don't miss out on Rad Codex's RPGs, especially Horizon's Gate.
All of his games have a very FFT-inspired combat engine/class system. Horizon's Gate pairs that with an open-world age of sail sandbox story and TONS of mods to boot.
Incredible! Weโre thrilled to share that Threads of Time has now surpassed 350,000 wishlists on Steam. Thank you all for the amazing support!

Ah, I missed that the big update for Cassette Beasts is out! Adds a new party member with a personal quest that continues after the main story's end.
Still the best indie creature-collector game, and with an amazing soundtrack. So many vocal battle themes...

Gameboy Color styled pixel art mockup of the Final Fantasy 7 world map from a perspective view. I had this idea that you could switch between top down and a Mode7 esque view. I was going to animate this transition but ran out of steam. Cloud is wantering the map with Midgar visible in the top left corner on a patch of scorched ground. To the right grassy feilds and the town of Kalm visible near the shore. At the bottom are some mountains and in the bottom right corner a mini map. Up top is a clear sky with a few clouds.
Gameboy Color styled pixel art mockup of Final Fantasy 7 on GBC. The scene shows the chocobo race with cloud in the middle of the scene and 2 opponents behind and one in front. Cloud is currently in 2nd place. In the distance some aurora borealis can be seen as well as some houses, mountains and some pink monster structure on the horrizon.
Last year I started playing (and sadly not finishing) FF7, and I got thinking about how Square during their PS era would still release games on Nintendo handhelds, and then I had a wild idea. What if FF7 wasn't so succesfull so they had to make a GBC version? #pixelart #gameboy #finalfantasy7

How did Epyx Fastload, one of the best selling carts on the C64 work? Commodore History has the investigation - and a really clever illustration of how serial buses networked when all you had was 8 bit bytes. (Check out the original dev in the comments!)
