Game Boy Do I Want This September 9, 2024
The upside of indie development of products is you get really niche and cool products like this case which has physical buttons to use with emulators and make your phone act kind of like a GameBoy. The downside is these products are such small runs that they only target a very small set of phones for compatibility.
A Goddamn Warzone August 16, 2024
In my personal time I like to try old games which were released when I was growing up but never got to play. This week I came across Warzone 2100, which I'd never heard of before, but was apparently an RTS (Real Time Strategy) waaaay back on the original PlayStation (PS1). In checking the wikipedia page I came to find out it's also open source and available to play on any modern computer.
Given that researchers found last year that 87% of video games created were not represented in the current market it is remarkable to find a PS1 era release simply available to download and play without any emulation or ethical concerns.
