Does anyone do T-shirts themed around 8/16 bit retro games, but the weird British ones? I want a Fat Worm Blows A Sparky, Ant Attack or Spindizzy T-Shirt dammit
Looking for this stuff just leads me to a ton of Nintendo IP and like, have you any idea how late/expensive the NES was here? About 3 people bought one. We were all playing Pyjamarama and Hovver Bovver
@sinbad I don’t think I’ve ever played on an actual NES. A friend eventually had a SNES which seemed pretty alright (mostly because of Street Fighter 2). Otherwise there were a few megadrives, master systems and gameboys, but mostly home computers: Speccies, BBCs, C64s, Amigas or Ataris. They were more interesting because you could mess about with them way more too. To this day, I don’t really “get” what’s quite so appealing about a chubby Italian plumber… 
@drakeblue I got a SNES when it came out but it doesn’t feel properly retro to me, since I wasn't a kid anymore by then. Love the look of your game, reminds me of Oids on the ST
@sinbad Thanks - Oids and Thrust are the two games I've tried to slam together.
I was lucky enough to get access to an ST early on, but then had to make do with it for a very long time after. I was still a kid when that SNES turned up at the friend's house, so I'd probably include it as "retro" for me. The PS1/N64 etc. consoles don't feel that way to me though. I'd prob draw my personal line right before textured 3D being the norm (compared to wireframe or filled polys like versions of Elite).
