⚡️ Darkstone, a 3D Diablo‑like ARPG from 1999, is getting a remaster by Delphine Software led by the original creator Paul Cusse.

Once pitched as Diablo's rival, Darkstone stood out with weird but brutal mechanics: an aging system (stats degrade over time) and proper survival elements, you must keep your character fed or they starve. That turns loot runs into a tense resource race; a CLASSIC that still bites. 🔥

C'est passionnant, plein de bonne humeur et bourré d'anecdotes. Pourquoi Fade to Black n'a pas pu s'appeler Flashback 2 par exemple !

Merci à Raphaël Gesqua, Thierry Perreau et Alice Dionnet. Et @dbenoist pour le partage 🙏

Today I learnt a bit more about #VRAM pages and palettes on the #MSX2, especially addressed from within the #MSX #BASIC language.

As a result I made some more progress on my fork of Zett Darkstone's tile-drawing editor programme and released build 24, which can now properly save your drawing (and progress) to disk.
(Actually importing it again is future exercise.)

If you want to play around with it, you can load the dsk via WebMSX
