I’ve been working on a PlayStation Vita port of id Software classic Commander Keen.
As a foundation, I’m using the magnificent CloneKeen from Caitlin Shaw. It’s a very impressive project and very authentic to the original Keen. So far I have the graphics engine running at a smooth 60fps, but no input or sound yet.

I’m porting Commander Keen to PSVita. Should I continue with it?

On a recent YouTube binge, I found this incredible example of reimagined Sierra graphics.
Taking Police Quest as inspiration, YouTuber mausimus has created a custom voxel renderer to produce authentic Sierra graphics in true 3D.
It’s very impressive!
Now THIS is the way to remaster old Sierra graphics!

I was recently in Hong Kong and had a very lucky roadside find.
I found a Sega Dreamcast for sale alongside some junk electronics items, and after some haggling was able to pick it up for $12.
No idea if it still works, but for this price it was hard to ignore!
This roadside Dreamcast needed a home. Snagged it for $12!
