BasGa – two colors for a retro space theme

A Galaxian-like game, very reminiscent of old computers. It's styled after the four colors of the MS-DOS CGA palette. And with retro sounds. A cheerful, simple 8-bit melody. Two of them. Simple menu design. And a choice of two colors: blue and pink. As the main color.

This is a fascinating thread if you have any interest in retro pc graphics and the magic those in the demo scene can work. #retro #retropc #cga

went and added most of the scenes/dialog to the CGA/DOS version of Peasant's Quest. Definitely not the whole game, but can be fun to walk around doing things.

Can't always decide which palette would be best. Cool Ranch? Taco-Seasoning? The horribly monstrosity that King's Quest 1 used?

You can try it yourself on the internet archive here: https://archive.org/details/peasant_202605

use control-A/B/Y to mess with the palette yourself
