BIG ANNIVERSARY UPDATE!!

It's been a very difficult year. The paralysis, which I am still recovering from, and the medical bankruptcy that followed. In spite of that progress was made, maybe not as much as I'd like, but look!

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

I made Nodes to combine functionality for better aesthetics, variety, & (hopefully) performance.

Details & Benchmark in reply!

We've changed the target platform to MS-DOS. This cannot be undone. #gamedev
