I’m going to launch this early this time! The thing is, games need a certain amount of votes to calculate a proper rating by the end of the voting period! Let’s help these games out!

If you start from the bottom, the list will shrink faster as more games will make it past the threshold, but don’t forget the others too! Let me know if there are any problems with the thing!

LD server banned my server so I have to update it manually every day! Start from the top this time! All is fixed!

Let’s rescue some games!

I started from scratch 10h before the deadline! This is how much I managed to make!

My initial idea fell through, I have this so far! What should I put on the island?

I recently moved and had an oppoturnity to arrange my studio up to my liking and this is what I came up with. Motorized standing desk and three wall mounted IPS screens! All necessary peripheals within the reach of a hand. Proper Gigabit networking all over the place and a small server I will probably not use. I built all this with Ludum Dare in mind!

And on my back there’s a small hardware lab in case I want to do something crazy!

This is the ultimate test of this setup! Let’s jam!

I’m absolutely joining this LD and to commemorate, I have prepared this wallpaper for you!

Grab it here (1440p, 1080p, 720p):

I’m super late due to having to deal with my car having holes in the roof and it raining the entire day, but I began on the game and it’s impossible to beat so I added a way to cheat!

PLAY!

You can edit memory and maybe even win! Let me know if it’s any fun or hard! There are at least several ways to beat the game.

Time to sleep!

Matchbox is complete. I don’t know what kind of game this is.

PLAY & RATE

So, CGA has more color palettes than you’d think! Here are the default ones:

First mode is the standard CGA mode as you know it, it’s most widely used because it looks best on b/w monitors.
Second mode colours are devoid of blue component, and appear much darker on b/w screens
Third mode is ‘undocumented’ but I actually stumbled on it by accident. It has some quirks but it looks nice.

Switching them in-game is quite tricky, so I’d rather stick to one. Which one should I choose?

Writing everything from scratch takes some time, but I am having so much fun! The game is coming together nicely, I am getting used to awful CGA colours, and I need to test it on my black and white CRT screen!

I’ve been doing some optimisations as I go and it appears as if the game should run smoothly on a 12MHz 80286. 8086/8088 is kind of out of the question, though, if you played any games made for that you should know what I mean.
