This was one of the first game programming books I read, circa 1999, and was where I initially learned how to program a raycaster. I never used the tools in this book, but instead practiced on testing my understanding of it. While not 3D in the modern sense, still fun. #gamedev
Fun fact: Some of what I learned from this book made its way into the #3DO raycaster I developed, BioFury. #homebrew #retrogaming #videogames

Announcing the 3DO Decomp Project. The goal is to reconstruct every 3DO title. I've built the tooling to help make it happen. See what I've done so far.

I wrote a quick and dirty raycasting test for the #GameTank. 65C02 @ 3.5MHz with blitter. It's not optimized at all.

The game is now in final testing and physical release planning. #videogames #indiegames #scifi #horror
I finished my own dedicated 3DO overclock mod using two oscillators controlled via on-on switch. I'll add cooling next. I ran tests on openlara and saw clean gains. I'll also test my game, Terminus, and others. Full recap, ODE, 50/64 oc. #retrogaming #consolemods #3do #gaming
WIP peek at a new enemy type for my #3DO homebrew, Terminus, along with dynamic lighting. Defeating these guys allow you to pick up more ammo. Additional sprite cleanup is still needed. The music by @MrGamingRetro fits perfectly. #retrogaming #retrogames #gamers #horror #scifi
Excited to install this #retrogem for 3DO. As a bonus, this can overclock with a single wire. However, consider a cooling solution. I may end up installing this a bit differently in order to get the cooling I have in mind. I have 1 mod ahead of this one. #retrogames #consolemods
My 3DO #scifi #horror Terminus supports sloped geometry. Features include lighting, room-over-room, seamless map switch, full 3D camera, a mostly steady 30 FPS, and one of the best 3DO soundtracks by Ruiner9.
Progress is steady. #gamedev #retrogames
Found this at a thrift store and had to grab it. No disks inside -- just dividers and check-out template cards. This is old-school data security. #retrotech #vintagetech #techhistory #80s #90s
