Let's meet out there!

3D renders I created back in 1998 using Bryce3D.

My PC back then was a 486/66 MHz with 8MB of RAM. I rendered these at 1152 x 864 which was the resolution of my 17" monitor at the time.

I saw a tweet a while ago about developing retro games *inside* actual retro environments (like Windows 95) for maximum authenticity, then compiling them on modern systems.

Well... I tested that.

A simple spinning triangle written in Windows 95 using Visual C++ 6.0 + OpenGL 1.1.
Zero code changes. Compiled and runs perfectly on Windows 10/11 with Visual Studio 2026.

Reject modernity. Return to Windows 95. 🟦🔺

This is my old game. Looks like a perfect candidate for a GameBoy Color port :)

I'm using Zig as build tool for my pure assembly game. It is awesome!

[Zed @zeddotdev]

We've shipped more than a thousand versions of Zed, but all of them began with zero. Today, that changes.

@glagstonegame Isn't that 2-bit? You have: white, black, and transparency, (last bit not used).

[PeteZach @oldyzach]

To kick off the day, I’d like to remind you about the game Polanie.

It’s a game from 1996, created in an amateur setting by a group of students from a Polish university.

It’s kind of like our own Polish Warcraft 😎

Omarchy 3.6 is out! Another batch of efficiency upgrades for Panther Lake, revamped Vantablack theme for OLED efficiency, and much more. https://t.co/w1Vzm3H3j6

Kai Krause's interfaces were made to fit the user's spatial memory. They are tactile with knob-and-fader feel of synthesizer hardware, it's fluid!

Lumped with skeumorphism and victimized by Jony Ive flat iPhone jihadism. I think this shape can return as a toy GUI for genAI.

Linux kept supporting a 1989 processor…

until now.

After 37 years, i486 support is being removed.

What changes:

• no more i486 kernel builds
• minimum CPU requirements raised
• ~14,000 lines of legacy code removed
• fewer bugs + cleaner codebase

Reality?

Almost nobody noticed it was still there.

@jontec8 Game Engine for my future games and apps. Software renderer, no external libs needed.
