[Now Released] Here have a little preview of The Sun Gem
an upcoming choose your own adventure game I'm working on for the #Commodore64 as part of a game jam
Some things I learned when making this:
- It's better to make smaller games, as my last game was a more complex one that I couldn't finish
- Developing for a retro computer is easier when you don't use a game engine (luckily I don't really like working with game engines anyways)
Edit: I released the game! Check it out here!

The Computers that Made Britain
The home computer boom of the 1980s brought with it now-iconic machines such as the ZX Spectrum, BBC Micro, and Commodore 64. Those machines would inspire a generation.Raspberry Pi Press
This is an older video so many of you #Commodore, #chipmusic, and #tracker nerds may have seen it already, but it's definitely a great watch for anyone who wants to learn more about the history of chip module music!

The history of Amiga chip modules with 4mat
The Amiga computer had a little chipmusic scene of it's own, centred around the popular 'trackers' used back then. Some of these tracks still pop up in crac...YouTube
It arrived yesterday and look at its beauty. I mean LOOK AT IT.😍
It was sold as non-working but I have high hopes since it needs a cartridge to boot up.
If this one is working, then I'll probably sell or trade my other one which has a slightly less nice box.
