We can finally show our secret feature!
We've been working on a tracker that will be shipped with MD Engine!
ヾ(´〇`)ﾉ♪♪♪
It won't be as powerful as Deflemask or Furnace, but it should be capable of doing music composition for most cases!

I just finished updating the latest version of Chords with Vic's Sega CD Fusion Driver. It's now doing both streaming PCM speech and background music and it seems pretty good if you ask me. More devs should really use this! #gamedev #indiedev #sega #segagenesis #megadrive
We finally had time to advance on the design and printing tests for our first release!
The bundle of Square Brothers and Inkventure!
We just need to finish the stickers and such freebies!

I ported the entire Hoenn region into a Megadrive rom to test out my new map streamer.
Couple rendering bugs and the palette isn't great, but it's all in here.

A late revision of 'Sonic 2' in the US would come out in a cardboard box, rather than a clamshell case.
We finally finished integrating the collision gridding system into MD Engine!
It was designed by the awesome @shannonbirt.bsky.social!
It helps boost performance tremendously for our current shooter examples!
It is also highly configurable!

The dump is so old that there are adults in their early 20s who were born after it came out.

Making retro games can be a real challenge because of all the technical limitations. Check out my newest (free) Patreon post to see how I deal with the color limitations of the #SegaGenesis aka #MegaDrive

Parallax absolutely helps, but also don't forget that different hues do contribute to the contrast. Here you have gray and blue against red/yellow.
I guess the major catch is that different hues are somewhat lost if you're colorblind, so how much contrast they provide depends on the person.

What's the deal with the four unknown tracks in Mega Anser, anyway? I was hoping that printing would play one of them, but nope, it just spools a print job in the background.
I mean, there isn't much other stuff on BlueSky yet 😶 Whole thing kinda imploded when Elon Musk took over Twitter.
Not sure where all the stuff is, my main guess is that it's all locked up in random Discord servers.
OK, why is there a 20 minutes long video of the Mega Anser demo loop? www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UtU...
But where do the burgers go? Right here.
Inventory data not properly plumbed in yet, but this is kinda close to what I had in mind for functionality. Top row will be consumables, second will be plot/key items
I'm surprised you didn't do it at the byte level like most MD scalers do lol (it looks less broken for scaling down than for scaling up)
btw Flicky and Fatal Labyrinth did come out on cartridge later so there's precedent. And Doki Doki Penguin Land MD is not exactly a short game despite being small footprint-wise (there are over 30 levels and it can take a while to figure out each puzzle)
I wonder how the whole thing played out, since in an interview about the MD launch they said that they wanted to let you download games to floppy disks. I imagine that Game Toshokan was an off-shot of that idea after the floppy disk drive was cancelled.
I think it's more that they made games exclusively for the service, and later decided to repackage them into collections. They had to be small games because they had to fit in 48KB (they're downloaded to work RAM, the cartridge doesn't have its own extra RAM)
