I have perfected Klondike. Behold, Actually Perfect Information Klondike Solitaire.

I hate how much of an "unsolved problem" this is on Windows.
Utterly impossible with C#/.NET because Microsoft thinks shipping 9 dlls inside 7 different folders is a-ok 🤪

After much cursing and shouting I have managed to create a single .exe that *should* "just work" on Windows. ( #PolyfoxSolitaire Vault for #Winpanes95)

It may not look like much, but this is real code running on a custom VM with real hardware virtualisation & VGA-like thing. I didn't find any of the available solutions for OS development satisfactory so obviously the only solution is to write a custom VM with a custom debugger. #osdev

how can mirrors be real if ghosts aren't real #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #portal #boomershooter www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2nL...

Only slightly cursed. Mildly cursed at best!

Can't have a 90s retro shooter without mirrors! #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter

I am pleased to inform you that the hall of mirrors effect works flawlessly. (Pay no attention to the floor texture changing.) #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter #portal

Tried to make mirrors, made mirror portals instead #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter #portal

Someone asked if the infinite hallway needs to have the narrower sections to obscure the view. The answer is no, it can be as wide as you want! #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter

(Minor SPOILERS, a peek behind the curtain) The impossible now possible: the infinite hallway! #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fOE...

Have you seen the game Duck Season? Kind of a similar idea.

And the room that's smaller on the inside! This one is striking. #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2r8...

I had an idea how to do more non-euclidean tomfoolery. Behold, the room that's bigger on the inside! #XbOS #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #boomershooter www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq2k...
