A few more notes about video games and VoiceOver Recognition: the story mode of Blazblue reads very well with screen recognition, even better than Windows OCR! In some games, when menus have descriptions, you can tell which menu item you're on by the description of the item at the bottom. With the Provinence app, audio latency is amazingly low with my AirPods Pro 2. So, playing games using those is really, really amazing! No game mode needed! I can't wait for more blind people to get into this! #accessibility#blind#gaming#Provinence#iOS#RetroGames#emulation#emulators
#VideoGames#Emulators#RetroGaming#Apple: "If you’re wondering why Apple has decided to involve itself in this potential legal nightmare scenario, after years of banning emulators from its App Store: it’s because it is currently fighting a bunch of anti-monopoly lawsuits and has been ordered to allow third-party app stores on the iPhone. Apple does not want anybody downloading these third-party app stores. So rather than risk people turning to them to download emulators, Apple has decided to allow retro game emulators on its own store instead, while placing responsibility on the app developers to ensure everything contained within complies with the law."
Congratulations @altstore! Becoming the first official 3rd party app store for iOS is a mighty achivement and doing it open source from the begining is incredible.
We got an exclusive early look at RetroDECK's next update on the #SteamDeck, and it adds #emulators, and an implementation of GZDoom that includes a custom parser to make building modpacks easier.
I finally just installed the #emulators from RA itself. The #NES and #SNES ones work fine, but I had to map buttons on my #XBox#controller and they don't support filters.
Cheap coffee table to not so cheap to build but quite awesome arcade cocktail table. Took ages to finish. Running an old I7 alienware x51 with a 1080TI. PC route so i can run ps2 emulation, modern stuff. Font on the panel for the power button and usb cluster is taken from attack of the mutant camels and the game running is sheep in space. One of my first games from back in the day and one of my all time c64 favourites. Both by @llamasoft_ox
Psst! You can go here for "official" Super #Mario Bros DX images and logos for making box art to use in various #emulators and launchers. Anniversary Edition and #Aesthetic Edition variants are included!

Moved the hacked PS1 mini (it has like 80+ games on it now thanks to Autobleem, the most important of them being Diablo) to the living room to start up a new Diablo run. I beat it two years ago in September and I started my run(s) in August 2021. Something about August and fall, I guess. Last time, I tried a sorcerer but struggled til I switched to fighter, which I beat it with. This time, I'm trying a rogue. Never tried rogue before. Should be wild. Time for tons of saving and leaving all my gear on the ground in town! 🤣
Alathra's now level 16 and I'm starting in on floor 9, which is of course where that difficulty ramps up! However, I just went back to kill the Butcher and now I'm gonna take out Leoric. The Butcher was SO easy to take out with a level 16 rogue 🤣 I figure Leoric will be too. Diablo tip - wait to kill these two til later, when you're stronger! 🔥
Down in level 13 (and Alathra is now level 20). Was thankfully able to skip a lot of level 11, as those damn demons there kept surrounding me and killing me- but the succubi and other demons aren't too bad now since I found this BADASS bow that adds 101% damage. Almost breezing through level 13. Only a couple more to go!
Killed Lazarus, and I'm at the end - exactly 30 days after starting my run as Alathra the rogue! I like to take it fairly slow, and I have. Now for the big demon himself. I suspect I won't have too much trouble - Lazarus is usually tougher and he was pretty much a breeze. Rogue arrows ftw! Find or buy a good bow!
