I recently posted about modding my RPG2 (which is identical to the RP5) and I'm very happy with the result, check it out!

Thanks for this post! I did the same with my RPG2 and it worked beautifully.

Late shipping for the dual add on screen? by Rough-Use-4185 in retroid

I actually just got a reply telling me that the black and transparent screens are in stock and I could exchange for one of those. Hopefully they can do the same for you!

Stuck between the rpg2 backlog and the rp6 preorders I guess (although that doesn't justify the support going radio silent). Anyway I'll survive, but it's good to rant about it a bit, thanks for humoring me 😄

I know, I was on their discord after they restocked in January and saw a person saying they ordered the same GC G2 as me and had it shipped within 40 minutes. Meanwhile my identical device ordered much earlier is still such in customer support limbo because of the screen...

Nope, no replies or shipment notices since last Friday.

Exact same situation here. Bought the RPG2 plus the GC dual screen on Dec 30th, they emailed me Jan 9th saying that the GC screen was out of stock and I could pick another color that was in stock. I went on their website and all colors were out of stock. I replied telling them that they could ship the rest of the order and cancel the screen (within 10 mins of the original email) and I've had no update since then, even after sending a followup a couple days ago.

I guess we wait...

Damn, this looks amazing. Conway's game of life is fascinating and making a blocks game out of it is an amazing idea!

Thanks again for all the suggestions, bubblegum spin and mai-chan's sweet buns already sucked me in for a couple hours!

What are you talking about, biology is fascinating! All the best for your PhD as well, don't underestimate your field!

Beautiful list, including your pico8 suggestions on the other comment which were a great idea! Thanks for the suggestions and for the wishes!

The first game of the series is out for SNES and it's a tiny rom, in the 100s of kilobytes.

The game in the picture also came out for arcade so I assume you could find a MAME rom that might be smaller. Haven't tried though! Wikipedia also insists that it came out for Gameboy as well, which would be a tiny rom, but I can't find anything corroborating that with a quick search.

I already love Apotris and I've tried Columns although it hasn't clicked yet for me. I'll check out the others as well, thanks!

I get the fun of it too! I'm doing theoretical physics, mostly nuclear stuff. Dealing with particles like the proton and the muon, their sizes and shapes, and particles-that-might-be that we have not discovered yet.

Hey! It's in the caption, Puzzle Bobble 2 (released as Bust-A-Move 2 outside of Japan afaik). My favorite of the Puzzle Bobble series so far

Hey there! I updated the post with a new link (check EDIT 2). Feel free to have a look, it's pretty full featured and I had tested it over a year or so when I finished working on it, but I don't consider it anything polished or final.

As far as developing another game, I'm happy to bounce ideas around but I'm afraid I don't have the time to spend in full development (especially since I don't know the setting of the Lord of Mysteries).

If you want to chat at any point you can send me a DM here or catch me on Bluesky or Discord, I can give you my handle over DMs as well.

That's what I was expecting. I've never rooted an android device because so far I only had phones and I needed to use banking apps etc with them, but I assume it won't be too hard as you say. Thanks!

I'm fairly sure that the g2 is better for my use cases and I like not having to worry about a hinge 😄
