We have been finishing Solid-State Soldier bosses.

This is the 1st boss!

The game will have 4 different bosses!

@RAGE_95 Translations and overall polish, really :). We dont find much missing for release beyond those

[Two Black Cats @twoblackcatsx]

We've spent the last few weeks working on compiler optimization passes!

We now have common subexpression elimination, loop-invariant code motion, script deduplication & script inlining!

It took a long time, but with these, we pushed Solid-State Soldier to 60 FPS!

@SNESTesterAlex We will have to check with Shinyuden, I think we've one RPG for later 2026. Regarding homebrew-SNES, I know our compiler programmer has been working with @twoblackcatsx on a new C to SNES compiler to beat the only one now available for homebrew projects

[Two Black Cats @twoblackcatsx]

@LilacIllust The physics system is not targeting Sonic-specific games, but the engine has a plugin system, so it is easy to adjust and make extra modules for it :)

[Two Black Cats @twoblackcatsx]

We've updated MD Engine beta version on Steam with our latest cthe hanges from the last few weeks/months!

Right now, we have a custom PCB with a flat 8MB size. We have plans to work on bigger PCB support with mapper and such after finishing the GBA pcb and doing a new review of the SNES PCB. But so far, we have never needed to go beyond 8MB nor has anyone had a game that big that needs support done with MD Engine.

[Two Black Cats @twoblackcatsx]

@29thcenturycapt @saltandpixeldev 100% correct, the only/major difference is that instead of compiling to bytecode and having a virtual machine, the engine has a proper event compiler that generates real C code with several optimization passes

[Salt & Pixel Video Games @saltandpixeldev]

If you're not aware. A new engine for the Mega Drive is on the horizon. Based on GBStudio. So I'm concepting some ideas. I'm hoping to spend some time figuring out the look of 90s SEGA games.

Daydream is a new GBC mystery game (Mar 30 release) using a Wi-Fi cartridge to connect to generative AI. Solve an urban legend for 15,000 yen (approx $94/£71) at Kaden no Kenchan.

There are a handful of things that will remain hardwired into your memory until the end of days:

How to ride a bike.
Your first love.
The sound of a 90s boot sequence.
