New blog post! I wrote about the super charming art disc Classical Cats. Artist Mitsuhiro Amada mashed up everything he loves in one place for this: cats, classical music, sumi-e, classical poetry. Sometimes all you need is cute cats and beautiful art. cdrom.ca/games/2023/12/…

Wrote about reimplementing Classical Cats's CD audio code to get it working in ScummVM... and how 28-year-old defensive programming almost tricked me into missing a major bug. mistys-internet.website/blog/

New blog post: I was dumping an arcade game for MAME to fix a bad dump in its database, only to end up discovering that revision didn't really exist in the first place. Even just getting that far and dumping this version took a little work though! mistys-internet.website/blog/blog/2024…

New blog post: I dug out my old copy of a favourite Japanese Mac game from 2004, and discovered that it's had an official English translation hidden inside its files this entire time - that can be unlocked by just changing a single byte in the save file. mistys-internet.website/blog/blog/2024…

Somewhat spicy headline this time, but seeing a feature I rely heavily on get worse made me realize: it feels like "GitHub", the traditional website, is being treated as a legacy product from corporate's perspective. mistys-internet.website/blog/blog/2024…

New blog post! I wrote about Jingle Cats, a puzzle game about the hardest puzzle of all: how to make cats be friends when they really, really don't want to be. cdrom.ca/games/2024/09/…
