Thank you for your attention to this matter!
I can’t believe I found this last night! New addition to our Retro Game Room at OntarioTech @ontariotechu.bsky.social
My colleague Kit has taken "Can it run Doom?" to its logical conclusion. 😁

Current Vibe
This past semester I developed a new course on Retro Game Development. The idea here was to explore video game history through development. Students built games for the Atari 2600 and the original Nintendo (NES).
Here are some of their NES projects. Super proud!

Just released a small review paper that compares the fidelity of different depth camera based volumetric video capture applications.
It is meant to give researchers, artists and creators who are new to this field an overview and starting point:

Oh man I’d take them if you are interested in getting rid of them! We are building a “Retro Game Lab” of sorts and looking for any period pieces for decor and potential use with vintage consoles.
I found something awesome today!
You can now download the demo of Umi Colors, new game for #Atari2600 console https://kabutocoder.itch.io/umicolors #atari #retrogames #retrogaming
The Video Game History Foundation Library is now in early access. For free. For everyone. Wherever you are.

The retro room lab is starting to form bit by bit! @ontariotechu.bsky.social
There's absolutely ZERO shame in considering gaming as your safe space.
So many of us had struggles in childhood and video games filled a void we needed. They can still be another safety net in our adulthood too.
Life's hard, so don't ever abandon what brings you happiness.
Ready for class tomorow! #retrogaming @ontariotechu.bsky.social
Merry Christmas Retro Gamers! 🎄🎅🎮
Merry Christmas to me!!! Yay! #retrogaming
Can’t wait to watch students play these next semester! Especially E.T. @ontariotechu.bsky.social #retrogaming
Yay! Got it working! #retrogaming
One of my favorite things to do at @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is hand a collection off to a subject matter expert and simply ask, "what new information did you learn from this?"
Recently @jtsknight92.bsky.social went through our Sarge's Heroes design documentation and came up with this video!
Hey team! I've been workshopping a talk for a while now about video game preservation's obsession with "prototype" games, and how I think the community's obsession with them might be skewed. I put a lot of thought into this and I hope it inspires some discussion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qelV...
37 years wow, we've been saving worlds for a minute. Happy Anniversary old friend. 🫡❤️
