Still super tired but I've had a nice quiet day without commitments, and I intend to do the same tomorrow! (To remind you, I'm taking a week off from personal projects to recharge my batteries a bit; no videos this week and Atelier MegaFeature will be back next Saturday!)
I've spent the day exploring the Evercade Indie Heroes cart, and I'll be covering each of the games over on Retrounite in the coming week. Most of them are available as ROMs for emulators as well as via the Evercade cart, so they're of interest to the broader retro gaming community as well as just Evercade enthusiasts.
Most of today was spent with two of the more substantial games on the cart: Quest Arrest and Deadeus. I say substantial, but both of them are only a couple of hours tops each — but they're definitely worthwhile experiences.
It's especially interesting to see that they were both developed with the same piece of software — GB Studio — but came out rather differently. Quest Arrest is endearingly scrappy, while Deadeus has a noticeable amount of polish to it. This isn't a knock against Quest Arrest, either; its rough edges are very much part of its charm!
I'll likely spend some more time with this cart tomorrow — I know saying that I'm going to write about these technically means that I'm "doing work" on my "weekend off", but I was going to play these games anyway — no time like the present!
Anyway, with it now being 2am I think it's probably time to get some sleep if I hope to be feeling a bit better in time for my new fitness regime on Monday. Hope you're all having a pleasant weekend!
