Being a retrogamer also means having made your way through the world of PCs and having faced the very real problems that came with gamepads. Consoles had one major advantage: an optimized setup. You plugged in the controller and could […]
The machines grind lines of code in the dark. We are calibrating the import scripts to haul relics from the digital mud, and among the first ghosts to stand up from the dust is Forsaken. One of those derelicts that […]
Summer moves on. Relentless and mute, as it always does. The heat comes down from the sky blurring the horizon and we move with it, in the dark of a room lit only by the cold glow of the monitor. […]
The beauty of retrogaming wasn’t just about the games. It was the cassette tape slowly loading, the computer running for hours, the sound of the tape recorder, the anticipation… it was the whole experience. And, of course, the joystick was […]
Anyone who considers themselves a true retro gaming warrior has probably fought the endless battle of upgrading RAM just to satisfy the ever-growing demands of new video games. It was 1993. Every day I powered on my trusty 386 DX-40 […]
There’s one thing that anyone who didn’t grow up in the Commodore 64 era will never truly understand: the game began long before it appeared on the screen. Before you could play your favorite game, there was a journey to […]
Rediscovering the Sound Blaster 16 Have you ever opened an old drawer and, with just a single glance, been flooded by decades of memories? It happens to me all the time. My cabinets are packed with everything that defines retro […]
The calendar inexorably marks the end of June. Summer advances, hot and ruthless, a furnace that melts the asphalt and puts the cooling systems to the test. But tonight, above the smoke of our terminals, looms the wild strawberry moon. […]
And the night was no night, but a vibration of purple pixels in the desert of the network, and we, to continue the great tumult, are only revising the graphic attire, altering the contours of the site. We are not […]
It is summer, dammit. Another fking time. The earth spins blind on its axis, spitting dust, and the light cuts the eyes without any mercy. The heat advances like an old predator that is in no hurry because it knows […]
Grifis continues his grueling work of data cataloging. A silent inventory. I have begun to run the first cross-references with the material we already have; for now, the math holds up, numbers do not lie, but there is still plenty […]
Silicon was not enough. When the money from Doom started pouring into Texas, John Carmack did not seek luxury; he sought the physical limit of matter. Velocity was not an abstract concept to be confined inside a cathode-ray tube monitor. […]
The world is not a good place and it has not been so for a long time. Let irony do its work. Two things happened this week and they are things that remain. Memorable. The first is that MaybeGrifis and […]
The real magic of an Easter egg surprise is the perfect metaphor for what might be inside: that sense of anticipation that builds excitement in the days leading up to it—much like the imagined “power” of future gaming consoles. It’s […]
A wise man once said that alcohol is the lubricant of society. We believe it represents the ‘oil of code,’ where the gears begin to turn more smoothly, leading to more fluid solutions. It’s a perfect alchemy that, between a […]
It was 1995. I was 13 years old and, besides trying to pop wheelies on my bicycle (usually very badly), I had another serious problem. My frustration at not being able to play Daytona USA on my infamous 486DX4 100 […]
Darkness Falls is online. And rightly so, the world will ask: “What is it?” The world is right to ask. The truth is that we have governed our VPS in a barbaric fashion. A brutal exercise, disrespectful and void of […]
We’ve released a new version of the app. This time we might finally get rid of the ghost of the login bug.We’ve added the visual quiz, and over the next few days I’ll start adding more questions. We’ve also changed […]
Finally, after so much rain, the sun is shining again. Today, more than ever, I feel like it’s the height of summer, and it makes me want to look back on a wonderful game that accompanied our youth and made […]
We finally managed to carve out some time — stolen from crashes, broken states, and the quiet dread of debugging — to restore a bit of dignity to our app. Between fixes and stability work (because, frankly, it used to […]
