I'm a terrible musician, but I made a 2nd tune for my sound engine's test ROM today.
It's from Sorcerian by Yuzo Koshiro

RIP my wallet
On the positive side, I now have 12 carts left for a full PAL/NTSC NES set. Used to be my main focus before moving to Japan/getting into PC Engine, but I'm still grabbing the ones I need when I have the chance!

New enemy: The Zap-O-Matic! This specific one controls the express elevator so you need to destroy it :D

Haven't had much chance to work on the game recently, sometimes life gets in the way.
Still planning to go back to it as soon as I can though!
For now, I found this silly manga about salaryman ninjas, I feel like I might get some inspiration for Special Ninja Squad :P

FG Software @fgsoftware.bsky.social · May 18

No worries :D

Stage B-2 is in, and I've made a lot of custom elevator routines for it to make it look like you're inside them :D

Building a new level. A concept I had in Space Soviets already, but a bit more refined!

Something else from the video archives, and it's my look at 1943 Kai for PC Engine!

You might just think it's a darn solid conversion of Capcom's remix of 1943, but then you find out it's more.

So much more. Which makes a darn tight conversion *truly* special.
