Tunic is an amazing game.

I started playing it over the weekend and it's one of the best games I've played. The combat is engaging and the art/music is great. I love the design decision to include the instruction manual pages as items to find in the game, complete with little pencil marks on some of the pages making it look like someone's personal notes. It really hits the nostalgia of when games came with physical books.

Admittedly, there are easier ways to emulate original DOS games like "Maniac Mansion" on a modern computer, but I gotta say: I'm not a huge fan of these dumbed-down, 1-click-and-play solutions like "DOSBox" or "ScummVM".

To me, using an emulator like "86Box" to create my own, virtual PC with its own operating system, startup scripts and file management is so much more enjoyable. And with floppydisk audio emulation, it even sounds authentic! 😉

We've now also released the transpiler as open source. The original Hoi Amiga Assembly files are included to prove it's working.

We hope it will help other Amiga devs to revive their old games!

#Steam became the #iTunes of #Gaming because #Valve already back then knew how to make the whole experience as frictionless as possible.

- With their #Prepaid #Vouchers being globally available, buying games even in cash-centric societies is convenient and fast.

Every other #GameStore / #Platform felt like a #NetNegative by comparison...

#Advertising in #Gaming just doesn't work...

- Already we see now #Streaming makes itself #unattractive and make #Piracy the better option because of #Greedflation...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcoq6I-nhuk&t=741s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcoq6I-nhuk&t=810s

#Amazon fails at #Gaming not because of #Money, but because of #Greed and their unwillingness to accept why people choose #Stream and that this is not even a matter of #Pricing but #ServiceCulture.

- And #Service is something Amazon hates because they hate #WageWorkers or having to take #responsibility!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcoq6I-nhuk&t=990s

At which level of #incompetence and #SelfSabotage of one's competitior's is a #monopoly justified?

- Cuz #Microsoft demanding 30% profit from #Xbox [when #Valve at best has 30% revenue split from sales] is just absurd...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcoq6I-nhuk&t=487s

Espechally when the upcoming #Xbox is rumored to be just a #PC [similar to the #SteamMachine] but literally shipping with #Steam preinstalled.

- Okay, that sounds absurd but then again the absurd idiocy at the helm of Microsoft makes this sadly realistic. See the cancellation of the #MicrosoftOffice brand in favour of #MicrosoftCopilot which is only topped by renaming #Twitter into #X because #Musk is #StillMad that #PayPal's main investor, #PeterThiel didn't choose it to be named #Xcom!

All #GabeN needs to do for #Valve to dominate is continue *NOT* abusing the paying customers on Steam and do what people love the platform for...

- Obviously being against #NFTs isn't due to moral objections but because Valve doesn't like being bypassed for anything...

And that is what all the other publishers and platforms ignore, with #Nintendo having fully left any understanding behind when #Iwata and #Reggie left...

#Economy #Gaming #Industry #Entertainment #GamingIndustry #EntertainmentIndustry #Enshittification #Greedflation #Greed #Xbox #PlayStation #PCgaming

Of course #Gaming is competing with #AntisocialMedia in terms of #Attention and #Time...

- But as with any #Entertainment, we can be very shure that "yet another #subscription / #LiveService #Game" isn't the solution.

Whereas making #good #Games (or any good Entertainment for that matter) is.
