I feel Wile E Coyote needs a slightly larger sign because it just doesn't quite read right.
Didn't think I would have beaten Road Runner tonight... I will still need to run it a few times, as I messed up a couple of achievements, but I can also put it on the back burner as it is now beaten and another chapter of my childhood is completed.
I can breathe a sigh of relief. This wasn't as bad as I was expecting.
It's still a tough time, especially the last couple of stages.
Turns out you can get continues in the game, but it requires a score threshold to be met, and that can be quite challenging as getting a good score requires finding some of the more annoying secrets.
The PSP might be almost 20 years old… but in 2025 it’s STILL a homebrew beast!

While updating the preview images for the dithering pixel art brush sets for Clip Studio Paint, Krita, and Aseprite, I set the Aseprite and Krita brush bundles to use an open source license (GNU General Public License V3).
Today I've made a Codeberg repository with the source files for the Krita brush set. If anyone wants to extend the brush set or tweak some previews, you can now.

On Friday my new pack of games for the GBA eReader arrived from retrodotcards.com and I've been playing them a ton since!
This is so awesome!
What a cool way to do a physical release in 2025!!

I’m still amazed by how much the Dark Tower electronic game was able to accomplish with 64 bytes (not kilobytes) of RAM: https://troypress.com/dark-tower-the-tms1400/ #DarkTower #retrocomputing #retrogaming
Troy Press · Dark Tower & The TMS1400Unlike the TMS1000, which had 32 bytes (bytes, not kilobytes!) of RAM, the unit in Dark Tower, the TMS1400, had twice that: 64 bytes of RAM. As perspective, this single sentence using ASCII takes 6…
rare game lore: Sonic 3D Blast for Genesis only passed console verification by dressing up the crash handler – which you absolutely will hit – as a level select screen, pretending the player accidentally entered a cheat code. #gamedev #retrogaming
I wrote an article about the SEGA Saturn.
For years I read that the 3D capabilities of the Saturn were kind of hacks added on top of a 2D machine, in reaction to the Sony PlayStation. This story always puzzled me because it didn't make much sense.
So I dug about the Saturn and wrote this article in which I try to demonstrate that the Saturn was designed, from the beginning, to be able to produce good 3D for its time.
Of course there are plenty of comparisons with how the PS works
