Love the sound work for the effects and the like; really helps make a shmup feel better when the sounds match it like this. Hoping that I'll be able to somehow buy a digital version and put the original ROM on my MiSTer, Analogue Pocket, and Mega SD.
A few minor gameplay errors compared to other versions in that demo, but man is that music good; really great work on the remixed music, and the minor gameplay issues could well be fixed by release time. Really looking forward to this!
Why no coverage of QMTech doing the same thing, only (mildly) cheaper and earlier? I own one of each of the new clones and they both meet my expectations at recreating the DE10-nano based MiSTer (of which I own two, and have been using since 2017). Seriously, the QMTech board needs more coverage, way more than Taki's board does.
@slider1983 MiSTer isn't a company; it's a piece of open source software previously targeted at a development board that people could buy and run the software on. This IS sourcing the components for cheaper, for MiSTer. This and the QMTech board are EXACTLY that thing happening... much to the enjoyment of fans everywhere.
I love how, when the same thing is made by a Western developer, it's "the thing you want most this year", but when the thing is already being done the same way by Chinese developers, it's "don't buy these!" https://www.timeextension.com/news/2024/09/please-stop-buying-unofficial-saturn-mini-consoles . This is just as unofficial, and all of the same things apply to it, but now you want it? What's the difference?
