Today we have preserved a cancelled Quake port for the GBA! It was originally being developed by @RandalLinden. If that name rings a bell, Linden is a veteran game developer best known for the creation of the BLEEM emulator as well as the groundbreaking SNES port of Doom!

Adding to the already incredible legacy of bleem!, did you know that it was used to help pitch the original Xbox?
was asked to create a custom version for Windows, which would boot a game directly, and this is the emulator mentioned in Power On: The Story of Xbox.

In the new Xbox documentary, the PlayStation emulator mentioned is none other than bleem!
We were asked by Microsoft to make a version which booted straight into the game for their demo without any titles.

I've found a way of playing mods in split screen with the Quake remaster.
Start a split screen game and enter "game MODFOLDERNAME" in the console (without quotes), then "map MAPNAME".
Enjoy!

#Halo is a very special series to me.
I've been lucky enough to spend the weekend playing the #HaloInfinite Technical Preview, and the game is shaping up to be absolutely awesome.
Here's a few of my screenshots from playing on an #XboxOne S.

I've implemented a map screen in to my retro-inspired FPS that can be zoomed and rotated.

Have you heard about the workplace culture at Activision Blizzard? Absolutely disgusting.
Everyone should feel safe and respected at work. All staff must be valued, talent nurtured, and toxic behaviour stamped out.
How is any of that not obvious?

State of California sues Activision Blizzard over "frat boy" culture eurogamer.net/articles/2021-
Developing for mobile is a real exercise in efficiency.
Using the same brute force approach to generating levels as on PC saw load times of at least 40 seconds and a frame rate of 30.
Now, I'm loading bigger levels in under 2 seconds and the frame rate is a solid 60.

Late last year, I followed Kippykip's excellent tutorial on compiling doomhack's port of prBoom for the GBA.
It was good to get some experience with devkitPro and even better to have more DOOM to play through!
