- The drifting system is almost ready. - The circuit mode is working (editor mode, here we go!). - The track curves have a more reliable "fake 3D" effect (but it's still far from what I want to create). - All the music now uses PCM percussion. - The car sounds have been improved.

Of the more than 50 fixes and additions in FFMD compared to the previous version, the main changes are the fix for cumulative slowdown and the optional automatic frame skipping. The general gameplay shows a notable performance gain even without automatic frame skipping.

Five enemies with two players! With some adjustments, it's now possible to display up to 5 enemies on the screen even in 2 player mode. In some places, speed can be compromised, but I'm doing my best to address that too. Now I can say that the challenge is closer to the arcade.

New video of current status of Starfox demo for Sega Genesis/MD. The scramble intro sound and the music during gameplay are streaming sample rate at 12khz (2 to 1 compresion adpcm type, the same format I used on wolf3d) playing with the z80. #starfox , #SegaGenesis , #Megadrive

The "real retro" is more and more alive. It's really exciting to see new games coming out using crisp pixels at low resolutions with limited colors, playing amazing music with FM synthesis right on the hardware itself, without emulation. It's like being a teenager again.

It looks like an old shoot 'em up but is a new game we're developing, harkening back to famous franchises in the 80s. We will release it for MD/Genesis. I'm making the soundtrack and have been back also as a game designer since Beyond Oasis.

I want to post a note to update everyone on Final Fight Ultimate. The game will come out anyway, no matter what. We're at least trying to get Capcom to say something like "you can continue as a non-profit fangame" so we don't have a cease and desist order in the future.

SGDK 1.80 released ! Along many others changes, this new version brings support for TMX file from Tiled Map Editor (both tilemap and objects data can be exported). Check out the details here:

Now Final Fight Ultimate has definitely entered bank switching mode. Probably if the XGM2 driver was ready we wouldn't need it, but I can't even complain because @MegadriveDev does a great job and has boosted the whole homebrew scene for the Mega Drive for the last 10 years.

Good news! Bank switching is APPARENTLY ok with good speed without any glitches (yet). I aligned the resources of characters, music, sfx, items, weapons, city map, and particle effects at the start of the ROM (NEAR), and the enemies and scenarios were aligned for bank switching.

Would you participate in a live stream with me explaining concepts about Mega Final Fight and other projects? I intend to answer as many questions as possible. My native language is Portuguese, but I will definitely do my best to answer in English too.

Today the opening was all redone in the correct aspect ratio in 4:3, being much more faithful to the arcade. In addition, the next video will also feature the extra story in Mega Drive mode.

I have to confess that I'm not very satisfied with my last video. I noticed a lot of bugs after watching, which I hadn't noticed while playing. Some bugs didn't even take 2 minutes to fix after I posted the video... Frustrating.

Another promising game for our Mega Drive: Dino Fighters. This game in a CRT is practically a cartoon! I wonder if this had been released in the past, I can visualize what it would be like at video stores, people queuing up to play a good versus with friends.

#sgdk Day3 progress: Sprite/background collisions. Palette fixes and color cycling to blink some lights. Using 1 palette for the player+UI, 1 palette for the foreground scroll plane and 1(still wrong)palette for the bg parallax. So far so good. #segagenesis #megadrive #homebrew

I consider @ErikHaliewicz one of the most talented Mega Drive programmers today. I think this engine is a feat of genius, on the same level as the feats of @gasega68k (which for me is another genius).

And when I finally managed to optimize the performance, the console reminds me how the Z80 and 68000 can fight so aggressively for the same bus. We win a challenge and two more appear, and so on...

Fact: It will be one of the games that will demand the most from the Mega Drive in every way. My expectation: It will be the most surprising shooter on the console.
