Brilliant. Looks like something from Soft ‘n Cuddly

There was this thread a few years back:

But you need a DIVmmc on real hardware, but now that you can emulate DIVmmc in FUSE Maybe that's an option?

The NEXT has a SID Player:

So you could use that in a NEXT Emulator:

This looks like a similar style of game and is incredibly fast:

EDIT: Nirvana were of course a bad Mudhoney ripoff with a bit of The Pixies thrown in ;) RIP Steve. I’m with you 100% there. Mudhoney (and many of the Sub-Pop bands) were much (MUCH) better than Nirvana. Yes, Bleach is a cracking album but nowhere near as good as any of Mudhoney’s albums of the sam...

I never realised until quite recently that Enola Gay was the name of one of the pilots mothers! I bet she was reet chuffed.

The only ones of these that I actually played BITD were Brat Attack and Road Race. Out of those 2 my choice goes to Road Race because I think it was actually a pretty good racing game. Around the same time in '87 my cousins were 8 and 4 years old and I remember the sheer frustration of trying to get...

Took me a while to work out what was going on. Eventually I sussed that it’s a balance between killing viruses, collecting coins, opening folders, encrypted files, ‘loot boxes’ , using items and then keeping an eye on CPU temp because each action increases the temp. Only got to level 2 so far.

That 'A' symbol looks like it should be in MASK 3, but it's not, so I have no idea. Any chance of zooming out some more?

Huxley Pig?

Nope

Alas, it ain’t that.

A nice easy one for the weekend:

Pheenix?

Such a sad loss. That Head over Heels screen is just a thing of beauty. So much colour and it just screams fun.

Great game. Got to level 7 and then my brain melted, so I stopped.

Arc of Yesod

Battlecars?

This is a great game. Bit like a less frantic Starquake.

Terra Cresta?
