Was it made by anyone involved with the original development? I cannot imagine anyone else being so passionate about it that they would go to that effort. That's incredible.
Not that I'm aware of. I'm always amazed by the great lengths fans will go for their favorite games.
So hot here (36 degrees celcius - 96 farenhiet) over the weekend but still got plenty of farm work done.
I did start 198X which is thus far a unique interweaving of presenting retro arcade experiences against a coming of age narrative. It was developed in Sweden so there is a something about it that is slightly awry in it's telling fo a tale that appears to be set in the US.
We'll see how it goes, I am about 3/4 of the way through it. I expect a dark narrative turn.
Been mostly playing through Final Fantasy IV Pixel Remaster this weekend. Tried some Marvel’s Rivals as well. It’s a good looking and pretty fun game but the general gameplay loop of these type of games just doesn’t seem to be my thing.
I restarted RE4 to play on normal mode. I got to the chance sequence with Ashley and I was doing abysmal, so I figured it was time to tap out on hardcore mode. Normal mode now feels like I'm cheating. It's kind of refreshing.
And I'm also still playing Pokemon Platinum on TikTok. I still don't get why people watch this stuff.
I always thought Launchbox was just for emulators. I didn't know it works with Gog and Steam games too. That's cool.
I meant to mention in that article also, that yes Steam will somewhat relunctantly allow you to use their interface to surface games from some of your other storefronts, but they don't populate it with any of the art or metadata the way Launchbox does. Another cool feature is that it has a "play a random game" like button and it will start a game for you -- lots of other little features too.

I watch/listen to quite a few longplays at work. It's good background noise and helps work to be a little less boring.

That's interesting. I never really considered stuff like that could be background or secondary media. But it does make sense.
I just logged intot eh steam ap on my phone and see Indy Jones availabel there! I thought it was a gamespass exclusive until next year?
