  3. In our NES Zapper game, Gunhawk, players used to only be able to fire when their weapon was fully charged. It didn't take long for me to switch to the current version where players have the option to fire with or without a fully charged weapon. Naturally, the weapon does significantly more damage when fully charged.

  15. I keep putting together wishlist #computerHardware builds

    • Top tier 128GB DDR4, gen 3 #Ryzen

    Decent. 3-5k USD for 1 gen newer. An improvement but, it's a waste. **I'd rather wait then spend 2x as much on a current gen #Threadripper #workstation**

    • Mini-ITX which has always intrigued me,
    • E-ATX Ryzen 9950X3D2

    All the i/o is m.2. They're buried under mobo heatsinks. I need PCI-E cards for #audioProduction, #ai acceleration. I'm fine w/RAID SATA III + USB storage

    Ideal:
    Fat #GPDPocket 5 w/replacable RAM & battery, MCIO, multi USB 4 & 3, BT6.2, WiFi 7, latest Ryzen ai 400-500, 512GB UFS4.1 for #Bazzite, [ #RetroGame OS], #UbuntuStudio, 100% sRGB, mech kb

  17. I recently took advantage of some temporary discounts and acquired the #Console8 by Heber. It's a #retrogame focused package of the #AgonLight, complete with some great joypads that they also make. As part of the induction into the house, I converted the logo into something a little more 8-bit, and updated my logo software. #z80 #ez80 #retrocomputing
    You can buy a Console8 here : heber.co.uk/agon-cosole8/
    You can download the updated logo software & source here: github.com/sijnstra/agon-proje

  19. We're back in the dystopian future of #IonFury for today's VOD, and as frustrating as this game got I still remember it positively. We are, however, approaching the end of this playthrough which means we're also approaching the point where I ran into a bevy of A/V issues during the livestreams. Luckily outside of a few rare occasions this should be one of the last series with such issues, especially given the low bitrate I was locked into before I became affiliated.

  20. Today we're diving back into a #BoomerShooter, but not the one you're thinking of. No instead for today's VOD we had just gotten our copy of the then newly released #BuildEngine game, #IonFury. This was such a fun return to form for #3DRealms, and aside from the quality issues on our end throughout the playthrough, the whole thing went rather smoothly.

    Oh! And this marks the first VOD that used some form of branding/overlay, so welcome to the second era of our saga, the Glitch Era...

  21. Il gioco feticcio di una vita, #Dante's #Inferno l'ho amato soprattutto perché è il gioco che mi fece scoprire #Bach, letteralmente.

    #Capolavoro in tutti i sensi.

    ...E per finirlo all'epoca davvero sono andato all'#Inferno 😱
