#12 - Create your developer and publisher page!

E.g: https://store.steampowered.com/developer/dysnomia

They are a good way for people to learn about you and your other games if you have some! Also, Valve added some pretty interesting options recently (https://store.steampowered.com/news/group/4145017/view/533246780877309201)

Progress on the Minecraft-like Cube Mining 3D in Defold by @cenullum is great - it has now a custom 3D particle system with collisions 🧡

Check the crunchy sounds too! 🎧🎶

Articles inside the revamped back issue of issue 9 of SAM Revival magazine (originally published in 2004, revamped in 2025) include interviews with two past SAM Coupe developers - Matt Round (now of vole.wtf fame) and Ken Jarvis (graphics artist). An extra page in this edition takes a more detailed look at Sphera, for which Ken designed the graphics.

A look at the undocumented #Z80 instruction OUT (C), (HL) [Often denotated as OUT (C),0 but that's not strictly true!] and how its behaviour differs between NMOS and CMOS core Z80 CPUs. There's an extra page looking at the first commercial release I've found that fails due to this instruction (on the #ZXSpectrum).

There's also a new 4 page article looking more at Manic Miner and Money Bags that are on the coverdisk of software. There's also followups and more photos added to the original news section.

Phobos Down Postmortem - Phobos Down by FRACTiLE Games

A bit over three months has passed since the Phobos Down release, so it's a good time for a look back. The plan I set out to make a perfect twin-stick shooter for myself. Something with a strict focus...

I managed to do only very little during the week. Some bug fixes here and there and trying to work out the goto-instruction tutorial. The huge "Skip Tutorial" button was in the way a lot, so I am trying to relocate it to the top bar. Maybe it could be a bit more distinct...
