@jansenjfa @edwardjhunter A remake where the original vision could be fully realized would be amazing! Even as is, it's a fantastic game and a product of its time, where unconventional ideas were more welcomed by publishers, leading to some unique experiences.

@HalfBlindGamer @edwardjhunter My favorite cdi game! I would love tonsee a remake or sequel

Interested in learning more about the history and making Burn:Cycle and how it came to CD-i? @edwardjhunter has produced an excellent and insightful documentary about it, with interviews: youtube.com/watch?v=3XNff2…

@matthewhenzel What kind of BS is that indeed? Since when do hosting companies measure 'activity' through just control panel logins? What kind of hosting provider doesn't have file mutations in their logs? Insane that they even dare ask payment. That's holding data and years of work hostage!

"You are using a third party FTP app to upload the files not the Control Panel"... And? That gave them the right to delete my entire website? I've never had this happen before and the ONLY time I've used the CP is to renew. No idea what he is talking about.

Well, this is BS. #Fatcow hosting deleted everything and claims it was because I didn't access a "Control Panel" once a month. I've always just done my updates offsite and uploaded via their FTP. Since 2012. They want to charge me $100 fee to restore my files which they deleted.

youtu.be/3XNff2Hf3gc I made a documentary about one of my favourite games, #BurnCycle, which just turned 30 years old. I interviewed the developers and they told us how they made this groundbreaking title. Now live on @HalfBlindGamer's channel.

Been very inactive online lately, sorry about that. Sort of working on Seb 2.0 :D. Just something exciting that I can't resist but share, is that I managed to score one of the harder to obtain CD-i grails. Next year I want to complete a full US longbox set, only a few more to go!

@SomethinNerdy Absolutely love to see 8-directional sprite work! Sprite flipping has always been a bit of a pet peeve of mine, but more so in modern times. Left handed should be left handed! Awesome stuff!

Just a reminder that Former Dawn, a new #RPG for the #NES/PC, is really a Sci-Fi game! Spoiler: Jeku & co. will find many derelict human installations beneath the surface of Astraea. Here's Jeku firing a P92 pistol; ammo will be rare, though! #Fallout fans ought to love it.

@TwinzDynamic Fluid is nowhere near as robust for actual music making, but it's such a relaxing and unique experience! It's hard not to enjoy that one I think. TIP: stick around in stages for a while for a chance to visit some short, secret stages.

@HalfBlindGamer Cool, we'll have to look into fluid. Yeah, spent a but of time with music 2000 some years ago & it is quite advanced for what it is. We, like yourself migrated to PC, but it was more capable than we were expecting

Ever wanted to become a musician? This #Friday we show you how with Music 2000 (#mtv Music Generator in #NA) a #PlayStation exclusive #Music sequencer program & #Videogame thats actually rather fun 🎶 Would you give it a try? #GamersUnite #retrogames #RETROGAMING #Retro

@johndelia Hey there John! Thanks, it sure has been ages! I guess well wouldn't really fit, been a bit of rocky ride, but in quiet waters for now :). Hope you and your family are doing fine!

@HalfBlindGamer Seb!!!! Dude I hope you’re well!

I will always support and love anyone trying to make the impossible possible with old game systems. It’s just awesome.

Great read! I ended up resisting the urge to splurge, but with the fast progressing MiSTer core, this thing will actually have another good use case! Cool to see they gave it a good deal of cable length. One of those minor things CD-i actually excels at!

@TwinzDynamic How is it? I do have it, but haven't actually given it a serious play as of yet.

In the mood for some #Futuristic #scifi action this #Ps2sday, featuring #TheFithElement inspired #EU exclusive #Racing #videogame, NYR: New York Race. If you haven't heard of it, you'll have to take a look #GamersUnite #RETROGAMING #retrogamer #retrogames #Retro

@CDIQueen Yes, thanks! Absolutely love how well he's managed to turn things around! He's pretty much back to his old self as he started the year. Much more vocal and 'around' again and about on his old weight again.

@HalfBlindGamer Looks like he is doing much better. I love to see his updates.

Well, that's all the important things for the month settled I suppose! I had just opened it up and walked away for a minute! Smaug would be proud! Yes, it's all cat food and, more importantly, Griezosnacks. And some dog treats, but sharing is not in the cards today I guess!

Griezo just taught me that X has shortcuts by somehow managing to put his paw on both the shift and the question mark key... thanks cat. Oh the times I've randomly started lkjlklkklkkkkkkjhkl

@CDIQueen @remute It's a very surreal production! It's mostly a VCD (so needs the DVC), though it has a CD-i menu and some bonus images. It's available via his Bandcamp, where you'll also find an impression: remute.bandcamp.com/album/dreammac…

@HalfBlindGamer @remute Ooooo I'm so curious about this work.

New CD-i got! Awesome stuff @remute! Thank you for giving the system some love and provide its fans with a unique audio/visual journey! I'm a little sad that it's such a late introduction to your works for me. But better late than never!

Using descriptive names can get awkward later. With #YouTube Shorts getting up to 3 minutes soon, they'll still Shorts. But Shorts won't be short anymore. Perhaps they should rebrand them to Capris? Imagine, each new one up to thrice the annoyance!

Got a CD that I hoped to be a stealth CD-i. When the system actually says 'Play CD-i" it really got my hopes up! But... it's not working. Time to explore its file contents I guess. And yes, there is a type of CD-Bridge that allows a disc to play on both Windows (95/98) and CD-i.
