I'm happy to share that the physical release of Terminus is moving along well. I finished verifying a pressed/replicated check disc on 3DO hardware, and the production job will begin next week. I'm tracking mid to end November for the release since I'm waiting to receive...
This was one of the first game programming books I read, circa 1999, and was where I initially learned how to program a raycaster. I never used the tools in this book, but instead practiced on testing my understanding of it. While not 3D in the modern sense, still fun. #gamedev
Fun fact: Some of what I learned from this book made its way into the #3DO raycaster I developed, BioFury. #homebrew #retrogaming #videogames

Announcing the 3DO Decomp Project. The goal is to reconstruct every 3DO title. I've built the tooling to help make it happen. See what I've done so far.

I wrote a quick and dirty raycasting test for the #GameTank. 65C02 @ 3.5MHz with blitter. It's not optimized at all.

The game is now in final testing and physical release planning. #videogames #indiegames #scifi #horror
I finished my own dedicated 3DO overclock mod using two oscillators controlled via on-on switch. I'll add cooling next. I ran tests on openlara and saw clean gains. I'll also test my game, Terminus, and others. Full recap, ODE, 50/64 oc. #retrogaming #consolemods #3do #gaming
WIP peek at a new enemy type for my #3DO homebrew, Terminus, along with dynamic lighting. Defeating these guys allow you to pick up more ammo. Additional sprite cleanup is still needed. The music by @MrGamingRetro fits perfectly. #retrogaming #retrogames #gamers #horror #scifi
Excited to install this #retrogem for 3DO. As a bonus, this can overclock with a single wire. However, consider a cooling solution. I may end up installing this a bit differently in order to get the cooling I have in mind. I have 1 mod ahead of this one. #retrogames #consolemods
My 3DO #scifi #horror Terminus supports sloped geometry. Features include lighting, room-over-room, seamless map switch, full 3D camera, a mostly steady 30 FPS, and one of the best 3DO soundtracks by Ruiner9.
Progress is steady. #gamedev #retrogames
Found this at a thrift store and had to grab it. No disks inside -- just dividers and check-out template cards. This is old-school data security. #retrotech #vintagetech #techhistory #80s #90s
