Mhm… Install 300mb once to run any Java application or 300mb for each and every electron app.
Its an easy choice.
X-Copy with 81 sectors?! What kind of madness is that?
Sorry but the window real estate of an application isn’t meant for branding and advertisement. For that you have splash screens and the about dialogue, or even the help pages. And for more branding your webpage.

43·3 days agoHave you heard of Java? Or any other language that abstracts away the GUI gluecode. Or don’t just even go electron and provide a web app instead.
Thank the makers that we have gui builders on most languages for most platforms, so all you need to do is wire up the controls with your backend :)

2·19 days agodoes The Bards Tale have a savegame system? I only remember playing but its very much hazy.
Okay, took the plunge. With the LCD I probably will be able to put it at a comfortable height, and distance from the seat. :)
Sadly only one. Its a Commodore 1084-S D1 and it glitches out, its front cover is broken off and the power button is constantly pressed in. Its currently hooked up on my Amiga 600 while my inactive C64 sits idly around without a display.
Would it be sacrilegious to hook the Amiga 600 up to a 15 KHz LCD?
And Xenia is hosting?

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•One of my most recent editions to my collectionEnglish
1·26 days agoVery nice additions. My first Pokemon was Blue edition.

I wish I could get it to cross compile to my Amiga m68k architecture. (Object) Pascal used to be my favourite language.
