It's the first of the month, another amazing edition of MSXdev'08 has just closed and so we sit back to enjoy new games and look back on the software that has downloaded the most from the MRC downloads database during the past month.
MSXdev'08 - Closed
A few days ago, things looked a bit bleak. Right now, it turns out that MSXdev'08 has ended with the same amount of games MSXdev'07 ended with. So, a rather happy ending after all!
MSXdev'08 #12 - Limaribu
Who would've thought. Just a week ago, MSXdev'08 appeared to be coursing towards a disappointing amount of entries. And with this entry, we're equal with last year again. Have you ever seen this many games popping up on one day? Arnold Metselaar joins the contest with a dice game: Limaribu! The game comes as a 32KB ROM and requres 16KB RAM.
We're almost there! A new entry, already shown at the Nijmegen fair last weekend, has just been submitted: Deep Dungeon. This game, made by Huey, Demonseed and ARTRAG is a dungeon crawler. This game is a highly retro'esque game worth playing. The game comes as a 32KB ROM and requires 16KB memory. ROM label and manual are present as well.
MSXdev '08 #10 - PWND!
The finished entries for MSXdev keep flowing in. And what a final sprint it is, MSXdev fellows! This is more exciting than the US pre-election rally has ever been!
Vampier has just submitted his MSXdev'08 entry: PWND! Check the status section for downloading the game, manual and sticker!
Do you know that situation in which you wait on a bus for ages in the pouring rain, and then they all come at once? This common situation summarizes MSXdev'08 perfectly well so far. Entry number nine is called Sp8 Invaders! This new game has been made by Dioniso, another MSXdev regular, who has already made games like Magical Stones and T-Virus.
Today is worse than some of snout's famous newsfloods, really! Well, another game, another newspost.. The latest entry for MSXdev'08 is called: Hose Diogo Martinez: The Bussas Quest! This 'typing game' is developed by Muffie, known for his flood of ports in the past few months. For the crazy story behind this game, please read the manual.
It looks like there's a wave of entries coming in.
