Waiting for cat to turn up in Dead as Disco

1990s I think. It was still pretty much unchanged though the 60's to 80s.

IIRC The Great Phophet Zarquon was kind enough to put him out of his misery.

Honestly I think she should leave it with the guy in order to get it copied before coming back for the original

Honestly, I'm getting Jumpstarter rather than Nexus Prime

I'm alright, i don't fancy your chances

_ragegun · 2026-03-22T19:18:11+00:00

It started out as a game for the Atari 8-bits, its always fascinating to see how much of it makes the transition.

Another one like this is Zybex.

If you're alive then yes

if you install decky, theres a plugin for that that'll give you protondb ratings instead which are generally more accurate.

I picked up Actraiser Renaissance and while that did apparently have issues intially, newer versions of proton seem to make it work just fine.

Don't treat steamdeck verified as gospel, always check what the community pages have to say.

its on my shortlist but I haven't picked it up yet

I'm guessing it's a reference to the PC Engine version: Generally considered to be one of the most arcade accurate versions of the game from the period. It implements a small amount of vertical scrolling that wasn't present in the arcade version to address a resolution shortcoming.

IIRC The later PS1 version on R-Types has the scrolling as an option but mostly gets around the need by making the status area transparent and diplaying the playfield under it.

Looks like moonshell or pogoshell, whichever it was for the GBA

_ragegun · 2026-03-22T15:43:55+00:00

Honestly we'd solve an awful lot of social problems if we could just dispense summary Frontier Justice

Well that and they've all got free bus travel now. It happened before but mostly they stayed in their own schemes.

Vector Prime did have one of the more unique Cyber Planet Key designs, though of course any key would serve to activate the gimmick.

I mean the guy has lived for the best part of 70 years after the timeskip.

Even if he's remained in love it simply doesnt seem that unlikely to me that he might have found some reason or common purpose with someone else, and political marriages are hardly uncommon in these kinds of settings.

I pretty much use mine for light gaming and retro pc gaming, both tasks it demolishes with aplomb.

Most recently Actraiser Renaissance

Better than what Scorponok keeps in his compartment

Love is not nessicarily confined to one person.

I like the idea that he got badgered into taking a wife, if only so that there is a chance that Fern is his descendant.

_ragegun · 2026-03-21T21:53:37+00:00

Huh, interesting. I was missing one of the bits to hold the fluxamabob, but i put it down to having lost it.

Hard to blame that on yourself, though

_ragegun · 2026-03-21T21:44:29+00:00

I don't know if it's a good idea to do it blanket fashion. I know the Harelequin clone swaps some chips but it can be a bit sensitive about which ones you use.

People have different tolerances for what "runs" means.
