Some very high praise and a well written article on our 2012 Demake Bit of War. It always makes me so happy when people really get what we were doing with the story. Thanks for the write-up, @thevgstoryteller.bsky.social!

That's all I've been thinking about while playing.. which is why I'm also playing ages.. retro achievements makes that so much fun! I also want them to make a new trilogy in the Echoes style, traditional Zelda. A guy can dream!

Yeah, they have like so much play value, but I could never see myself playing from the start again like other Zeldas. Still both incredible games, some of the best.

After finishing both, the storyline in Tears is far stronger and more interesting, but Breath has that newness and relative simplicity combined with nostalgia. Guess it depends what vibe you're going for :)

Peronally BotW will always feel more magical than Tears, I guess because when it came out I'd never seen anything like it. Tears has an awesome story but overwhelmed me with choices so I mostly avoided the building until one of the quest chains forced me to get more into that aspect.

You donβt have to buy a physical cartridge to support NES homebrew devs.
Digital versions matter too.

I am so beyond excited for this as a retro gamer. As a retro developer, I'm really hoping Shopii provides a storefront for retro homebrew, that's something that is just so cool and does not really exist anywhere else. You guys are doing amazing work. π

Been sick the last few days so not much done on #Cryptsmasher except I've been laying down the music and sound effects. Amazing how much music provides polish to the game! I'll have a video soon βΊοΈ

Monday mood: my #Cryptsmasher project is on stand still while I work through artist's block for one particular but important design element. Wish me luck!

I know what you mean! The last while I've only been playing Indie (GB Studio etc) games and it's been great! Really puts a new life into those old consoles. Kero Kero Cowboy and Wink and the Broken Robot are top of my list.
