I’m a programming buff with formal training in journalism. I worked in Silicon Valley, now I’m based in Prague.
I build games, teach programming, explain things, and create silly software experiments.

I'm not a retro-gamer, but there are many giant robot games from 1996-2006, and that era happens to be a gap (machines too powerful for emulation, but APIs too old for translation layers). Here's my solution: https://filiph.net/text/windows-xp-retro-gaming-1996-2006.html

I think we finally got a spiritual successor for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (HoMM3) with HoMM: Olden Era.
Although still in "early access" for me, it has been the first time in years (decades?) that I played something similar to the old good one.
Lots of failed attempts in the past (Song of Conquest got very close), the game has a simple formula, yet small details can break it.
@Ailantd This is the kind of art I'd love to buy as a print, btw, and hang on the wall of my office. You don't happen to have a store, do you? I can't find anything like that on your site but maybe I'm looking in the wrong places.
**EDIT** Please ignore me. I just noticed your linktree and the redbubble link there.
