@ArcadeRacing_0 @bunnytv1 @EpicGames I figure I would play my Epic one now to see if I should go double dip it on Steam before its gone but it won't let me! Out of hundreds of games I have on Epic this is the ONLY one that says "OS Unsupported"; tried on multiple W10/W11. Something screwy is going on with this!

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@bunnytv1 @ArcadeRacing_0 @EpicGames I just noticed this too, but I tried it on Windows 10 too with the same result. Can't download it, its in my library! Is this their way of preventing people from downloading it whatsoever? That means Epic Store is UNSAFE for ANY purchases if they can do that!

@dantemendes I was at Tengen/Atari 90'-97; being involved in this project was one of the best experiences I had in game dev. I didn't find out just how insane it was that it all happened until years later, and the far reaching positive outcomes it had for gaming - especially for stuff I love!

Totally thought this guy was playing a CAVE shmup or something. Maybe I do need to get more sleep or be on the internet less... ; . ;

@joelvallie @LimitedRunGames I'm not *quite* done with it yet, as I wanted to make more customized controllers/speakers for it, but otherwise its everything I wanted, and optimized to have minimal input lag and correct aspect ratio! The side art panels swing out to the front. The whole thing looks alive! :)

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@joelvallie @LimitedRunGames Also got the email. I knew better but this game meant too much for me. They keep moving the goalposts on their website so they keep the lie going as long as possible to avoid admitting delays. Sickening. Never again. I built my own cabinet for it 3 months ago anyway, go figure.

@STGshmups Nothing interesting off the top of my head. Konami was meh but I loved working at BPS, there's stories there like how I was hired. If I become more active on here I'll probably blabber about more stuff. Maybe I'll start a piggybank to raise the $8/mo to ramble longer someday! XD

@g0z3r404 @tonyhawk Now one of the most blessed things I've ever had <3 I was a demo player for the game at CES 1993 at the TTI booth, their last show before going away forever. </3

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@RetroGamingDev @PixelCNinja Yes, it is still in dev and I'm hellbent on getting it out in the next year; I had the demo up at @GameOnExpo this past weekend! Life stuff slowed it down and then industry stuff - but overall the delay was for the best as modern hardware and tech runs it much better!

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@RetroGamingDev @PixelCNinja That would be me, lol! I did a talk on it at Game Developers Conference a few years back if you're curious about the details! https://t.co/sGUaZj4IeL

@MylesTheGreat2 BOOM! Tetris for YOU!!!!

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@Tailsnic_Retro Wow very nice! I attempted similar with my cabinet but could not get JAMMA video to appear perfectly and the display lag was not worth it. I ended up making a transforming bartop that minimized lag instead!

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@arcadeheroes Great post with amazing insight. I love hearing how games evolve during development and the earn-or-die trial by fire of the arcade has a special element to it I think has since been lost; I wish the industry could go back to that kind of ethic. Thank you for sharing!! <3

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@arcadeheroes I recall a high profile one in the west: Sunnyvale Golfland's location test for Street Fighter II' Champion Ed. was NUTS, ppl were FLYING IN for that one, lines hours deep. A few yrs later I worked at Capcom Japan; we still did LocTests at the same arcade, not nearly as insane!

@Fabagame Thanks for touching base! We don't have a announced date yet as the design is expanding with multiple characters and other exciting features but hopefully 2026! We plan to launch on all current platforms and still want to do arcade as well!

[Strike Harbinger [Chris Tang] @strikeharbinger]

@VideoGameHstry None of those... In the early days looking up stuff I liked such as Ys, Phantasy Star and Miracle Warriors, only @HCGSHOW delivered. Only others I cared to watch over the years have been @GameSack and @PatTheNESpunk !

@Wario64 Got mine in less than a day after ordering. Finally motivated me to open and set up my system. Easy application thanks to the guide frame, also used the hot shower tip here to keep the dust down. Very happy w/it, solid deal for $5, love having spares. Many thanks Wario64!
