@c64cosmin reminds me of exile

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@MrGemezl yes, it's a much more pleasing aspect! I never understood the obsession with going wider and wider with aspect ratios!

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@MartiansGame this is so good!!!

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@the08games love it, reminds me of the Chaos Engine by the Bitmap Bros on the Amiga

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

thinking of building an #evo64 #c64 has anyone else put one together on the UK and what we your thoughts?

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@folmerkelly it would be good to work together again... I've got some game projects in mind

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@RJHern i can't get my copy to load - any chance you could offer any advice? I've got a KS1 next and it just black screens

@CommodoreBlog That flooding algorithm is so hard to get right though. I've got the fill working, but I'm having trouble with the height balancing of water.

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@CommodoreBlog brilliant I'm thinking of a remake!

@helpcomputer0 WOW! It looks as good as Rex!

So - I'm practising my platform skills with a nice old slick platformer I used to play on my MSX called "Chuckie Egg"

It's in Godot 4 and I'm just having some fun with the hen - is this a good idea Harry?

@randomcodingdud Looks fantastic - Powermonger was a game I always wanted to get into and never made the time - I did used to play Populous a LOT and Populous 2. Those conversion fonts were hilarious!

@MarkCockram one of my favourite films! the music is incredible and the puppetry is out of this world! Hoggle and Ludo were strong contenders for doggy names! Especially with the plastic fascination

@c64cosmin screenshake and bubbles

[jamie howard @physcopanda]

@r1kgames lances like defender of the crown
