- Xibalba 64 is finally here! I'm very happy with how the game turned out! It looks amazing with the M64 on the living room TV, but of course is fully compatible with the original N64.
- Failed experiment for the N64: runs with 60fps in emulator, but fails to hit 30 on real hardware. The N64 memory bus is a bitch.
- FMVs on the Atari ST! I have dabbled a bit with video compression (mostly MPEG1) and I'm amazed by how far you can get with much simpler compression schemes.Command & Conquer intro and how it is encoded for playback on a 1989 Atari STe, in beautiful 16 colors.
- This guy on Youtube took the leaked wipEout source and made it run again. I know some of it is video magic, but man, it looks so much more effortless than to how I did it. I often feel that what I lack in expertise, I just make up in persistence...
