If his intent was to not include home-made (so to speak) ports of games already extant on other consoles, your game would be far from the only game that would have to be removed from the list...

Scrobins | 1,718 Moderator · Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Yep I consider it a homebrew as it applies to that console, much like KHAN’s Scramble and Sneak ‘n Peek ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,084 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Has anyone heard anything about Eyra the Crow Maiden? No Kickstarter updates since September starting to feel like maybe we are getting burned on this one. Tried emailed the creator, no response.

Scrobins | 1,718 Moderator · Posted December 12, 2020 Author Share Posted December 12, 2020 A sizable part of their development team had been simultaneously working on The Curse of Illmore Bay, which is just about complete. I suspect they are focused on delivering that game and they’ll then dive back into Eyra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrobins | 1,718 Moderator · Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Here's some interesting news, Paprium just opened pre-orders again, asking at least $169 for CIBs, promising shipment later this year. I am not moving this to the pre-order category though just yet, but will move accordingly as more news comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind my stuff being on here or anything (happy to have the promotion), but just to be clear... You consider Pico-8 games to be homebrew? And further-more you consider engines written for PC based on Pico-8 to be homebrew? I've just never been super clear with what Mono8 is, so I wanted to make sure there isn't confusion. Pico-8: A fantasy console for making, sharing and playing tiny games and other computer programs. It feels like a regular console, but runs on Windows / Mac / Linux. Mono8: A modern C#/MonoGame game engine written to mimic the functionality of Pico-8 (color palette, code API, etc), but not actually an emulator or anything like that. Basically an engine to create retro-looking games for modern PCs which will feel familiar to Pico-8 developers. It is not a game. I don't know if my other project Witch n' Wiz is causing confusion, as that is an NES homebrew game which is a port of my Pico-8 game of the same name. Anyway, I hope I don't come across as second guessing your process (I really appreciate this work you do), I just want help clarify what my project is/isn't.

This is where I made a mistake, I must have misread one of your tweets, thinking this was a game. I’ll remove it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
