I miss the era when you’d spend days researching and tweaking an algorithm (even a simple one) just for that deep satisfaction of figuring it out yourself.
Now LLMs do it in seconds. Sure, you can refuse to use them… but it feels like a self-imposed handicap, especially when deadlines are breathing down your neck.

You can now travel between star systems in Open Sosaria! 🌌✨

A bit late for #ScreenshotSaturday, but here's what I've been working on!
Open Sosaria is an engine reimplementation of the original Ultima (1981, Apple II). Right now I'm deep into space exploration systems and 6502 disassembly. I just finished implementing star rendering.

🚀 Porting Ultima has been smooth sailing so far, almost everything is in Applesoft BASIC.
But now I’ve reached the Merlin assembly routines 🔥
Time to brush up on my 6502 wizardry 😅

Halfway through the space implementation on Open Sosaria (Ultima I engine reimplementation)! 🚀
You can now travel to and from space, switch spaceships, and more. Next up: first-person combat and hyperjumps.

I'm glad that we got Doom 95, but I always wished they would have created a MoM 95. I'm not going back to Win 9x now, but my Master of Magic remake is running on a Windows XP VM.

I saw a tweet a while ago about developing retro games *inside* actual retro environments (like Windows 95) for maximum authenticity, then compiling them on modern systems.
Well... I tested that.
A simple spinning triangle written in Windows 95 using Visual C 6.0 OpenGL 1.1.
Zero code changes. Compiled and runs perfectly on Windows 10/11 with Visual Studio 2026.
Reject modernity. Return to Windows 95. 🟦🔺

The Colombian peso is so devalued in @GameMakerEngine's mind that a $100 license now costs the same as a full university tuition 😅
Does it come with company shares too? 📈
(Pretty sure it’s a regional bug lol)

There are more ways to die in space than anywhere else in #Ultima.
The funny part is that if you die in space, Lord British won’t revive you. In the original Apple II version, the game would just soft-lock in an infinite loop and you’d have to force-shut down the computer.
Wondering if I should keep that “permadeath in space” behavior in Open Sosaria (minus the PC force shutdown, obviously) or add a small QoL option to let players revive somehow.

I know it’s the tagline, but it’s still wild how the original Ultima (1981) goes from a tiled overworld map → first-person dungeons → full space game. Absolutely insane for the time.
I’m rebuilding it with Open Sosaria, a faithful engine reimplementation. If you’re into Ultima/retro CRPGs, drop a star ⭐

#TurnBasedThursday Started working on the space exploration section for Open Sosaria, my Ultima (1981, Apple II) engine reimplementation.
I have to say, this is the most fascinating part of the original code I've seen so far, even beating the dungeons and combat. Really cool stuff!

Tried booting up a tablet from 2013... nothing to be found in the playstore due to how old the os is, but it was nice remembering that google was a thing...
Any ideas on what to do with this tablet?

Just finished a fully playable Tower of Hanoi in pure x86_64 NASM on Linux.
Flat 45-byte peg array, rep movsb board rendering, real move validation undo, victory detection, all hand-rolled syscalls. No libc, obviously.
Why? 🤷♂️
Because sometimes you just need to make the computer suffer with you.

I've been diving into x86_64 Assembly lately (because God knows I didn't have enough distractions from my games already 😅).
Surprisingly, I'm really enjoying it! Not sure when I'll stop or if I'll actually build anything with it, but it's way less scary than I expected the first time I heard about it.

After a slow couple of weeks, I’m fully back into Open Sosaria!
Dungeon gameplay is coming along great, just need to add magic casting. Hoping to drop a new version tomorrow! ⚔️

In the original Ultima, fighting a Mind Whipper would drop your Intelligence by 60%… then add 5.
So if you had 10 INT, you’d end up with 11.
You were so dumb that the Mind Whipper literally made you smarter. 😂
