Upscaled this precious old photo, taken during a computer party of The Jungle Command in the late 1980s. At the far left is P(i)eter Opdam, one of the two coders of our game development team: Soft Eyes / Team Hoi. He left to the UK to work on the first Worms game for Team 17.
The one with the T-shirt in his hands is our game music composer Ramon Braumuller. He got the T-shirt from The Jungle Command for his birthday. I'm standing next to Ramon, wearing a whitish shirt.
The guy scratching his eye is Ron Klaren a.k.a. Master Blaster, the music composer of Battle Squadron.
The one at the far right is Mark Langerak, who made The Plague (Amiga) together with Ron Klaren, before Mark went to the US to work on MicroProse games.
Such great early years of the digital revolution. ❤️
Have a look at the "Team Hoi game devs" section of https://metinseven.nl for more info, videos and free downloads.
Wow. Just getting to grips with #openrct2 – what a project. My wife & I loved the original, but since switching to mac many years ago, we haven't been able to use our original CD Roms. So good to have a native implementation of Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 on Mac with continued improvements. Well done! #rollercoastertycoon#rollercoastertycoon2#retrogamer#retrogaminghttps://openrct2.org/
30 years ago, in April 1993, the World Wide Web commenced.
Glad to have been there in those earliest days of the public internet. I was a young Amiga game developer, fighting for development freedom on Usenet, as Commodore was pushing developers to not take over the system. 🙂
It's always a good day when a @ThePiHut parcel arrives. Finally, ordered myself a new @RetroFlagcase SNES controller, so I can resume my Super Mario World goodness! #retrogamer#retrogaming#nintendo#snes
